Hood River Care Center
Hood River, Oregon
Hood River Care Center is located in a residential neighborhood nestled among the pear and apple orchards overlooking the beautiful Hood River Valley.
Our nursing and rehabilitation center is a wonderful place to discover competent and caring staff. Our staff believes that every resident is an individual and we take great care to communicate and learn the activities that add comfort to their day.
With that goal in mind, our staff provides quality health care programs that promote rehabilitation of the whole person -- physically and emotionally. Our staff is not content to accept "progress to date," but continues to strive for quality through deliberate and constant improvement of services.
Hood River Care Center also offers the Expressions Memory Care program for individuals with special needs caused by memory loss. It is available in an environment designed to add structure and familiarity to the lives of its residents, and not overwhelm them.
Hood River is a contracted provider for Medicaid, Medicare and several managed care health plans.

Expressions Memory Care
Expressions Memory Care :
Special care is needed when an illness or disability brings about memory loss, confusion or disorientation. Activity programs designed for healthy adults are often too stressful for a person with dementia.
Expressions Memory Care is different. It’s based on the philosophy that activity is more effective when it becomes a rhythm of everyday life.
We focus on the activities of daily living, which are challenging enough for
individuals with memory care needs. We incorporate effective communication and
memory keys into a personalized program that accommodates each individual’s
unique interests and abilities.
Most importantly, we take care of the details so you can focus on the more positive aspects of the relationship with your loved one.
Expressions is now available with temporary or full-time residence. An Expressions community includes specially designed housing apartments to help keep your loved one safe and secure, while a highly trained staff bestows the kindness, understanding, patience and reassurance they deserve 24 hours a day.
