Respite Care
Short-Term Respite Care Stays Available
When you need a break.
There are times in our lives when we need a little extra help. Being a primary caregiver can be a demanding task, and respite is a great option to provide alternate care for someone you care about. Bring your loved one for an all-inclusive staycation where they will be cared for, and you can enjoy some respite time. Our program is also perfect for individuals who are recuperating from a hospital or rehabilitation stay. Often times, respite is the best option, as it means nurses and caregivers are on hand to assist, something most people would not have access to at home. By using respite care in this way, individuals are able to recuperate at their own pace, and families and friends can rest assured knowing their loved one is in good hands. Take a break and schedule a staycation for your loved one.

The staff at Clatsop Care Retirement Village includes several individuals who have been on the team since the building first opened in 1999.

Easy for Clients and Residents
Costs vary by the size of unit and any additional services that are provided. An assessment will be conducted prior to move-in, and on a regular basis thereafter in order to adjust service levels and charges as required. We encourage prospective residents to get on our wait list as soon as possible, even if transitioning to the Retirement Village is not expected for up to a year. We maintain a separate wait list for each unit type, and the typical wait is six to 12 months for a unit to become available.
Because our services are connected through the Health District, it’s easy for clients and residents to transition between care programs as their needs change. Call us to discuss your care needs.
