Cedar Crest Alzheimer’s Special Care Center
Cedar Crest Alzheimer’s Special Care Center offers memory care and respite care in Tualatin, OR. Memory care provides a secured setting with supervision for someone living with Alzheimer’s disease or another form of dementia, while respite care offers a temporary stay when a family caregiver needs to travel or recover.

With 56 beds, the community is among the smaller homes where staff and residents can get to know each other, and housing includes private studios for one person as well as shared studios for someone who wants a companion.
The starting price is $7,200 per month, and Medicaid is accepted, which can help a family whose savings may not cover a long stay. Meaningful Moments® incorporates residents’ life experiences and backgrounds into programming, while Companion Living is also offered; Yvonne Alexander serves as administrator, and SH1 Cedar Crest OpCo operates the community.
