Providence Elder Place Irvington Village sits at 420 NE Mason Street, right in the Irvington Village neighborhood of Portland. This assisted living community is part of Providence Elder Place and mainly serves people aged 55 and older who live with chronic health conditions, offering long-term care and personalized support. The community includes 104 beds with studio, single, two-bedroom, semi-private, and private room options, and it's built for people who want to stay independent but need some help with daily tasks. The staff helps with dressing, bathing, grooming, medication, laundry, meals, grocery shopping, and housekeeping, and a care team manages more complex health needs through the PACE (Program of All-Inclusive Care for the Elderly) model.
The residence stands out for its culturally responsive environment, developed together with Irvington Covenant Church and Covenant Retirement Communities, where residents from different backgrounds come together and help each other. People can join in on arts and crafts, educational programs, game nights, and health activities, or use the dining room, activities room, salon, or fitness center. The kitchen and laundry offer more ways to keep routines. Meals come in different styles, and there are devotional services and pets are welcome, though smoking isn't allowed anywhere inside.
The facility sits close to lively Alberta Street, various cultural resources, a major hospital, and public transit stops right outside, which makes it easy to get around town. They offer transportation for residents as well as complimentary rides for appointments or outings. Medicaid-funded services help make this a more affordable housing option for quality care. Medical services include on-site nurses, wound care, podiatry, occupational therapy, and support with cancer, heart and vascular needs, neurosciences, orthopedics, and urgent care, and there's a MyChart platform and Providence App to handle health info or appointments, both for virtual and same-day care.
Since opening in 2002, Providence Elder Place Irvington Village has focused on working with residents, listening to what matters most to them, and making sure each person gets a care plan that fits. The assisted living setting brings older adults together to support each other while nurses, aides, and other professionals focus on helping people stay well, active, and as independent as possible. The community is licensed, regulated, and uses TTY (711) for communication, and it's part of a larger group of Providence Elder Place centers serving the Portland area.
