The Forum At Town Center sits in Happy Valley, Oregon, inside Town Center Village, and has served local seniors for decades with different care options from independent living and assisted living to memory care and nursing home services all within the same community, so when you walk through you might notice friendly staff greeting folks by name and people chatting by the gardens or walking along pathways near the pond or lake, and there's always a dog or two enjoying the pet-friendly grounds with community gardens, a gazebo, a putting green, a dog park, and indoor and outdoor pools for those who like to swim, and there's plenty of covered parking since the campus is gated for security with covered sky bridges connecting the buildings, and it seems there's always something happening like social events, movie nights in the on-site theater, game nights, and outings around the area, plus there are clubs and volunteer opportunities if residents want to stay involved and make a difference.
The community provides meals through the MyChoice Dining Program, serving in both restaurant-style and care-focused dining rooms, and private dining rooms work for special meals with family or friends, so residents have choices every day, and kitchens or kitchenettes are in many apartments- whether it's a studio, one-bedroom, or a larger unit-giving people the option to cook at home sometimes, and with housekeeping, concierge, maintenance, and transportation provided, residents can come and go or relax as they wish, knowing staff are always on hand to help if needed. The staff provides custom care for anything from daily assistance with dressing or meds to memory care for those living with Alzheimer's or other forms of dementia, so residents who need more attention can receive it while those who are more independent can enjoy their own apartment and come down to the Vitality Center for fitness classes, swim laps in the heated pool, do Tai Chi or yoga, or join an arts, music, gardening, or literary activity in one of the studios.
Medical and health services are available on site, with doctor visits, medication management, physical therapy through Ageility, and quick access to local hospitals and clinics if needed, and it all works together with the community's 24-hour call system and security measures to make sure residents' needs come first, so families can feel more comfortable knowing there's support in emergencies or for rehabilitation, short-term respite stays, or hospice care. There's transportation, high-speed internet and cable, and the computer lab and library are always open for residents to learn or enjoy a good book, and the beauty salon, chapel, activity studio, and pianos add to the daily routine. The Forum At Town Center keeps things simple, aiming to provide a supportive environment where seniors of many needs and interests can feel involved, cared for, and at home.
