A Rare Find in Oregon Memory Care
Emerson House is one of the few multi-story memory care endorsements in the state. Oregon's memory care licensing rules, in place since 2010, require all newly endorsed communities to be located on the ground floor. Emerson House predates that requirement, making multi-story memory care communities like Emerson House increasingly rare and effectively irreplaceable as the existing licensed communities age.
For older adults who spent their lives in apartments and multi-story homes, the transition into memory care doesn't have to mean trading that familiar sense of home for a sprawling single-level layout that feels nothing like the life they lived. Emerson House offers that continuity in a way most communities simply cannot.
For families and care teams managing residents with significant elopement risk, the building's design also provides meaningful, structural safety advantages that go beyond what locks and monitoring systems alone can achieve.
If building familiarity and elopement safety are priorities in your placement decision, Emerson House is worth a serious conversation.
“I love Emerson House! Every staff member I have interacted with over the last two years has been wonderful. I know my Dad is not only being cared for, but also loved. I would recommend Emerson House to anyone who has a loved one with dementia.”

Tenets of Care
The Philosophy of Purpose
Anew Living Core Values
As humans, we thrive on connection, meaning, and purpose. This need doesn’t fade with age or cognitive decline; in fact, it becomes even more critical. Research shows that individuals living with memory challenges or care needs experience feelings of loss, frustration, and isolation. A purpose-driven approach to care can help mitigate these feelings, improving overall well-being and quality of life.
The Power of Connections
Anew Living’s Commitment
In the heart of our senior living communities at Anew Living, personal connections are the cornerstone of our approach to care. We believe that meaningful relationships not only enhance the quality of life for our residents but also nurtures a supportive community where everyone feels valued and understood.
