Overview of Tabor Crest Residential Care

On SE Division Street in Portland’s Multnomah County, Tabor Crest Residential Care occupies a well-located spot about 4.5 miles from the city center. The Walk Score of 88 puts it in very walkable territory, which means visiting family and staff can handle most errands on foot from the building. The 30-bed facility has been operating for 46 years under its current identity, now managed by Tabor Crest Opco I, LLC, with Ligia Ifrim serving as administrator.

The care profile is notably broad for a building this size. Assisted living, memory care, palliative care, hospice, and respite are all available on-site, so residents don’t have to move when their care needs shift. Licensed nurses and CNAs provide round-the-clock staffing, and rehabilitation services round out the clinical offering. Private suites are the standard accommodation, and the building is wheelchair accessible.

Several named programs give the care structure some specificity: Family Caregiver Support, Customized Dining, Short-Term Respite Care, and Incontinence Support. The dining program centers on local dishes prepared from scratch, with customization available as a formalized service.

Inspections have tended to focus on infection control, food service, resident rights, and housekeeping as the recurring areas of regulatory attention.

At 30 beds with 46 years of operation, six care types, and a highly walkable Portland address, Tabor Crest is a compact facility with a clinical reach well beyond its footprint.

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 218 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. Ask to see the most recent state inspection report, the move-out / level-of-care-change policy, and a sample monthly bill that lists every fee.
