Overview of Spring Meadows Assisted Living Facility

Spring Meadows Assisted Living Facility provides assisted living and hospice care in Saint Helens, Oregon. Assisted living includes help with daily tasks such as bathing, dressing, and medication while residents maintain their own living spaces. Hospice care provides comfort focused support for residents with a terminal illness. Respite care is also available for a short stay when a usual caregiver needs to travel or recover, making the community a possible fit for a family that needs temporary support.

The community has 44 beds and accepts Medicaid, giving eligible residents a payment option when personal savings may not cover the full cost of care. Nina Wendelschafer serves as administrator, and Elderserv operates the community.

On site rehabilitation services allow residents to receive therapy without arranging transportation elsewhere, while transportation coordination can help organize travel for off site needs. An on site beauty and barber shop provides grooming services at the community, and pets are allowed for residents who want to live with a pet. A Walk Score of 73 places the area in the very walkable band. Most errands can be done on foot, so a resident who no longer drives can still get out independently.
