Overview of Tierra Rose Care Center

At 4254 Weathers Street NE in Salem, Marion County, Tierra Rose Care Center has been running as a nursing facility for 32 years. The 76-bed community is operated by CML, Inc. and administered by Colleen Rees. It sits about 2 miles from Salem’s city center, in a moderately walkable neighborhood with a Walk Score of 50.

The care structure is intermediate nursing: 24-hour staffing, a doctor on staff, and rehabilitation services, with total nursing hours at 5 hours and 23 minutes per resident per day. That figure reflects a staffing model oriented toward residents with ongoing care needs rather than high-intensity acute episodes.

A park setting with fountains, a pond, and walking paths gives the physical environment more texture than most comparable buildings. Residents have private and semi-private rooms, access to a beauty/barber shop, and a private dining room available for family visits. Three meals are provided daily.

State inspections have touched on medication management, infection control, staffing credentials, environmental safety, and care planning. The Oregon Department of Human Services, Aging and People with Disabilities performs the oversight.

Tierra Rose Care Center is a long-tenured Salem nursing facility with outdoor grounds that stand out at this care level. Families considering it for a loved one needing sustained daily nursing support will find a physically comfortable setting with a track record long enough to have generated a real compliance history.

Overview of Myrtle Point Rehabilitation and Care

Myrtle Point Rehabilitation and Care runs seven care types in Myrtle Point, OR: assisted living, memory care, hospice care, palliative care, respite care, nursing home care, and skilled nursing. With 35 beds, this is a small building and, at that size, staff learn a resident’s routine rather than their chart. Assisted living handles bathing and dressing, and medication management, while the apartment stays the resident’s own.

Memory care is a secured setting with supervision, and what usually brings a family to it is the discovery that the front door has become a hazard. Licensed nursing runs on every shift inside the nursing home. Hospice and palliative care take end-of-life needs and symptom relief, one after cure has stopped being the aim, the other alongside treatment that continues.

Respite is booked for a short stretch when the usual caregiver needs time elsewhere. Care levels that step up inside one location suit a resident whose needs grow. Therapy happens in-house, so no rehabilitation appointment turns into a drive out.

A Transitional Independent Living program is named here for residents working back toward living on their own. Daily nursing sums to 5 hours and 53 minutes per resident. A Walk Score of 62 means the nearest block or two are workable on foot, and almost nothing past them is. That distinction is important for residents who have stopped driving.

Medicare, Medicaid, and private pay are the payment options. Medicare covers skilled weeks following a hospital stay rather than a permanent address, and Medicaid reaches past the point where savings stop. Novi Ridjab administers the community for Sapphire at Myrtle Point.

Frequently Asked Questions about Memory Care in Oregon

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.

Does Oregon Medicaid cover memory care?

Oregon Medicaid does not directly pay room-and-board for memory care, 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 memory care?

Memory care is a specialized form of assisted living for residents living with Alzheimer's disease or other forms of dementia, with secured environments, dementia-trained staff, and routines built to reduce confusion and wandering.

How many memory care communities are listed on this page?

This page features 217 memory care communities in Oregon. Use the filters and comparison tools above to compare ratings, amenities, and pricing.

How do I choose the right memory care community in Oregon?

Start by matching the level of care offered to the resident's current and anticipated needs, then compare licensing status, staff-to-resident ratios, recent inspection results, and pricing. Tour at least two or three communities in Oregon, talk to current residents and families, and confirm what is included in the base rate versus billed as add-on services.

What should I look for when visiting memory care communities in Oregon?

Pay attention to staff interactions with residents, cleanliness and odor, food quality at meal times, the activity calendar, and how questions about pricing and care plans are answered.
