I never got to see my grandma in this facility. My grandma passed away recently so I traveled to Oregon with some family and had to clean out her room. I had the pleasure of meeting Joana and seeing the house and was really pleased that that was where my Grandma spent the last few months of her life. Joana clearly cares about the people there and was there for us, and more importantly my Mom and Uncle. I'm happy that my Grandma was loved and allowed to be the trouble maker that she is while she was there. Thank you to Joana and her team to caring for those who are usually forgotten about.

My mother is 93 years old and has dementia. About two years ago, after looking at over 50 dementia facilities, I found out about Joana at the Alpine House. I had heard wonderful things about her and her care for the elderly so I decided to pay her a visit unannounced. I knocked on her door on a Sunday afternoon and she invited me in for a visit and to take a look around. Her home is beautiful and that day they happened to have family members visiting their own mothers there. I was beyond impressed with what I saw. I was able to talk with the residents living there and their families. Everyone raved about the excellent care and how happy they were with Joana and her wonderful staff. I was so happy that they had a room available for my mom. My mother has been there for over two years now and receives excellent care. I am so grateful to Joanna and the other care givers for loving my mother and taking such good care of her. Joana is a nurse and her home is absolutely the best care facility there is. I highly recommend!

I will be back to add more to this when I have more time but I absolutely without any reservation at all recommend Joana and the wonderful crew at Alpine House. They don't only care for my grandma, they have been family since the day she moved in. Joana fights for what she knows my grandma needs to have the best life possible and I'm so grateful for that. There are so many wonderful things to say about her home, the activities, the yard and more, but to me most importantly is the people and the care. Both of these are the absolute best. Please go visit, you absolutely will agree. We love the Alpine House, and so does my grandma who has been there a year now!

As a former adult foster home licensor, I can tell you provider Joana Olaru goes above and beyond what is expected and proactively seeks to meet both the physical and psychosocial needs of the residents at Alpine House. She also places a priority on hiring and retaining good staff, which is one of the keys to providing excellent care. Joana is professional, competent, and truly cares about providing a comfortable, enriching environment for residents.

My step mother, Joyce, had been in Alpine House since September 2011 until her passing in early March. She transferred to Alpine House from a nursing home where she was very unhappy. Her time spent at Alpine House were relatively good ones for her and she considered Joana to be a very dear friend. Joana worked hard with Joyce to get her to be more social with the other residents and to participate in the various activities at Alpine House. I always had full confidence that Joyce was receiving the best care at all times. Joana goes above and beyond in so many ways and I am grateful to her and her excellent staff for taking such good care of Joyce these past five and a half years.

I moved my elderly 94 year old mother to Alpine House in Oct. of 2016. She required total care (feeding, bathing, bathroom) and after looking at many level 3 foster care homes for the elderly, decided upon this particular home. Joana, the owner, is a skilled RN, with an advanced nursing degree, specializing in geriatrics. She employs caring staff and night care. Being a nurse myself, I found the task of looking for expert care an overwhelming experience. I visited over 15 care homes and long term care facilities. Minutes after I visited Alpine House my anxiety was relieved. All staff are long term, stable employees which is hard to find at many care homes and long term care facilities. Turnover is not an issue. Questions about staff were answered clearly and honestly by Joana. She invited me into a room to talk to a resident, leaving me to talk without interruption, encouraging me too ask questions. This is truly a home. It is quiet, off a busy road and has a a beautiful yard and patio. I visited unannounced (as I did for all facilities). Joana was gracious and welcoming and not taken back by a surprise visit. The home was clean and the food they were serving for lunch that day was home cooked and appetizing. Every Tuesday an activity lady comes to play music and games, updating the weather and news both locally and in cities where a resident spent time. Joana is very business-like when going over contracts and costs. I found the cost to be consistent with other five person elder care homes, yet less expensive than corporate owned long-term care facilities. Many places promise a lot, but do they deliver? Joana delivers. Feel free to ask her anything. Visiting is encouraged and welcomed. I never questioned Joanas decisions about care. Id been depended upon for years regarding medical decisions involving my Moms care and to let go of this responsibility and just visit my Mom as a daughter was a relief beyond words. My Moms skin was very friable and for the first time in years, she did not require wound care for skin tears on her lower legs. In fact, my Mom passed away with no pressure sores and her skin was intact, an accomplishment for an elderly, non-mobile person. Joana was an advocate for my Moms care and comfort during her last months of life. Joana and her staff truly loved my Mom. Mel fed my mom and would tell her I love you. Bernie is exceptional with his expertise in elder care. Ariana provided excellent weekend care. Debra and her little dog Precious provided night care. My Mom passed away peacefully in March of 2017, knowing she was at a caring, loving home. My only regret is that my Mom died before I could take her out into Joanas yard filling with flowers. She will miss having the lunches and dinners they have outside during the warm days of summer. We were able to enjoy a Christmas party that was attended by residents and their families. If there is an opening at Alpine House, and you need level 3 care for your loved one, grab it.

Joana created the most amazing senior community - extraordinary care, fabulous cooking, great value, dedicated caregivers... the place to be if you have impaired parents. Cannot say enough about the quality of care in her both locations.

I contacted Alpine House for information. Joanne was so helpful and really took the time to make sure she answered all of my questions.
