Overview of Arcadia Senior Living

Arcadia Senior Living is a 74-bed assisted living community on SE Foster Rd in Portland, Oregon, nine years into operation and licensed by Oregon’s Department of Human Services, Aging and People with Disabilities. Administrator Kevin Call runs the facility, which the community describes as family-owned. The two-story building sits in a part of southeast Portland where a Walk Score of 34 means most trips out will need a car or a ride.

The apartment lineup spans three sizes: studios at 350 square feet, one-bedrooms between 569 and 750 square feet, and two-bedrooms at 904 square feet. That range is meaningful. A family moving a parent out of a large home can find something compact; a couple who want to stay together have room for that too. Respite care is available for short-term stays, which makes the community an option for families testing the fit before committing to a permanent placement or bridging a gap after a hospital discharge.

Oregon DHS inspections at this facility have focused on staffing and staff credentials, and care planning and documentation. These are standard regulatory focal points for assisted living in Oregon and give a general sense of where state oversight tends to look.

For older adults in southeast Portland who need hands-on daily support and prefer a smaller, independently run setting, Arcadia covers the basics at a scale where individual attention is at least structurally possible. The respite option adds flexibility for families still figuring out next steps.

Calaroga Terrace sits at 1400 NE 2nd Ave in Portland, and it covers real ground: assisted living, independent living, and respite care, all under one high-rise roof.

Location-wise, this is about as walkable as it gets. A Walk Score of 92 puts it in walker’s paradise territory, meaning daily errands genuinely don’t require a car, and there’s a real density of shops and services within reach on foot.

On the care side, respite stays are available for families who need short-term relief, and licensed nurses and CNAs are part of the staffing mix, which runs 24 hours. There’s also an active living program built into the structure here, so support and independence aren’t treated as opposites.

Meals are chef-prepared, and residents get a full-service hair salon, a courtyard, and a library to use day to day. The activity calendar runs weekly and includes things like bingo, walking groups, tai chi, and gardening clubs, real variety, not just a token box checked. Between the walkable setting, the range of care levels under one roof, and a built-out activity and amenity structure, Calaroga Terrace reads as a community set up to support residents through more than one stage of senior living without requiring a move elsewhere.

What is the typical staff-to-resident ratio at assisted living facilities in Portland, OR?

What's the difference between assisted living and memory care in Oregon?

Assisted living in Oregon supports residents with daily activities (bathing, dressing, medication management) while preserving independence. Memory care is a specialized form of assisted living for residents living with Alzheimer's or dementia, and adds 24/7 secured environments, dementia-trained staff, and structured routines designed to reduce confusion and wandering.

What's the difference between assisted living and a nursing home in Oregon?

Assisted living in Oregon is a residential model focused on housing, hospitality, and help with daily activities. Nursing homes (skilled nursing facilities) provide 24/7 medical care from licensed nurses for residents with significant health needs, and are regulated more strictly under both state and federal CMS rules.

Does Oregon Medicaid cover assisted living?

Oregon Medicaid does not directly pay room-and-board for assisted living, but most states (including Oregon) offer Home and Community-Based Services (HCBS) waivers that can offset the cost of care services delivered inside a licensed community. Eligibility, waitlists, and covered services vary — check directly with the state Medicaid agency.

What is assisted living?

Assisted living combines private or semi-private apartments with help on activities of daily living (meals, bathing, dressing, medication management) and a social calendar — for residents who need some support but do not need 24/7 medical care.
