Located in the Country Meadows Village neighborhood of Woodburn, Oregon, Silver Creek Senior Living is a senior living community offering assisted living and memory care. The community has served residents for 19 years and provides personal care alongside specialized memory support for those who need additional assistance. It is operated by AHR Woodburn OR ALF TRS SUB, LLC in partnership with Frontier Management. Katrina Day serves as the administrator, and Casey Brill is the Executive Director. Medicaid gives eligible families a payment option for the cost of care.

Residents receive medication management, routine wellness checks, and scheduled local transportation upon request. Those living in memory care participate in the SPARK program, which creates individualized wellness plans based on each resident’s needs and abilities. A regular calendar of activities, classes, and group outings provides opportunities for residents to stay engaged.

State inspections have most often focused on cleanliness and care documentation, including kitchen sanitation, infection control, and compliance with physician orders. Inspectors also reviewed a staffing documentation matter. However, that was not substantiated, and there was no immediate risk to residents. Families touring Silver Creek Senior Living should ask how sanitation practices and infection control procedures are managed.

The community is about 1.3 miles from downtown Woodburn and approximately 11 miles from Providence Newberg Medical Center. The neighborhood has a Walk Score of 60, so some nearby shops and services can be reached on foot, but other errands and outings require a car.

Silver Creek has 20 beds, which is a smaller community where residents and staff can build familiar relationships. The community does not allow pets, which is an important consideration for residents with an animal companion.

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.
