"I am writing to express mine and my sister's and brother's thanks to A Place for Mom, in particular Jessica, Eldercare Advisor of the recent move of our mom into Atria assisted living community. Jessica with her exhaustive knowledge of the New York health care industry, caring personality and tireless work ethic, is an invaluable asset to A Place for Mom. My initial conversation with Jessica involved her getting a feel for our Mom's then living conditions and what was going on in her life that was necessitating the search for assisted living. At the end of our hour long conversation, there was a consensus between us of which facilities would potentially be a good fit for our Mom. Jessica made the initial introductions, asking that they contact me to set up appointments for a visit and provide me with informational packets. Thank you A Place for Mom for affording my siblings and me an avenue and valuable resources that we so greatly needed in finding our Mom a safe, warm and caring home, for what we hope are many years to come."

"Thanks so much for thinking of us! Thanks to you, I think I have found the perfect apt for mom. The staff there is absolutely amazing! I have mom about 98% convinced. I am bringing her a whole bunch of pictures tomorrow to 'seal the deal'. She has promised to give me the 'official' go ahead once she sees what everything looks like. I have given the name of your organization to several people already. I refer to you as my 'guardian angel'. I would have never gotten this far so quickly without your help."

Laurelhurst House (A) Assisted Living
Laurelhurst House is an assisted living community newly completed in 2000 with 38 studio apartment units about 350 square feet each. We are located in the Mt. Tabor/Laurelhurst neighborhoods and are close to shopping and other conveniences.

Our rent starts at $2,100 per month which also includes some assistance with activities of daily living such as medication management or bathing assistance. I am happy to provide an individualized care plan once we meet.

Each apartment contains a large handicapped accessible bathroom and walk-in shower, closet space and kitchenette. An outside drip-irrigated window box receives seasonal plantings and residents are encouraged to participate in our unique Garden Views program.

Our residents are a broad cross section of ages from as young as 42 to as senior as 95. Most are fairly independent and also receive some additional assistance from our caring staff. Included in our monthly rent are all utilities including cable TV, three meals per day in our main dining room, weekly housekeeping including linens and personal laundry, regularly scheduled activities and outings, transportation to and from doctor appointments, 24-hour staffing and on-call nurse availability. Each resident receives a wireless emergency call button that can be worn and used to alert staff if assistance is needed.

Our common areas include a large activity room with balcony, private sanctuary, library and reading areas, beauty salon, resident washer and dryers, and private dining room. We also operate a community coffee shop located in a portion of the building that serves the public, residents and families alike.
