Overview of The Springs at Greer Gardens

Under Frances Whittle’s administration, The Springs at Greer Gardens is a 100-bed assisted living community operated by Hsre – Springs Iv Trs, LLC, on Goodpasture Island Road in Eugene, Oregon. Serving the area for nine years, it supplies studio, one-bedroom, and two-bedroom housing options to handle varying needs and preferences.

The community’s car-dependent area has a Walk Score of 20, so most daily errands and activities require driving. The location is accessible to the broader Eugene area and nearby services, though occupants and visitors must plan on using personal transportation for most outings.

The Oregon Department of Human Services’ inspections focus on food safety, staffing training, and emergency preparedness protocols. The home has addressed findings, with some improvements made in prior years, though concern areas have been identified across multiple review cycles.

Families touring The Springs at Greer Gardens can ask how it upholds food safety standards and handles emergency training and response procedures.
