Testimonials

My sister and I would like to express our sincere appreciation for the kindness and services that your community provided for our mom. From the time in her apartment in Assisted Living to her final days in Memory Care, every staff member she and we came into contact with was professional with a bonus of loving, warmth, and caring.

We cannot say enough good things about the help we received from your staff. Your guidance was so appreciated and your compassionate empathy and genuine thoughtfulness made every step easier for us. Our thanks to the Skilled Nursing staff who gave my mom so much attention and took such good care of her. We are ever grateful for the care and understanding that was shown by everyone. It will be easy to recommend your community to any who require those services.

Skilled Nursing Prineville, OR

We provide 24-hour skilled nursing services in short-term and long-term care. Our nursing team focus encompasses the residents' total emotional and physical well being while providing treatment and medication administration. Quality of resident care is assured through a rigorous Quality Assurance Program, where patient treatment and outcomes are tracked and reviewed.
