The DC Water Wizards are an adult learn to swim program that is smashing stereotypes and breaking barriers at the National Senior Games.Powell Valley Assisted Living is amazing!! My 'fairly independent" Mom had been there just a few short days when she took a small tumble. These folks have gone so far out of their way to make sure she's taken care of -- it's incredible.

We checked out about 10 different assisted living locations in Gresham, NE and SE Portland before we found Powell Valley. Wow...The place is immaculate top to bottom, the residents really seem to enjoy living there AND equally important is that the staff obviously loves working there. You can just feel it. In my experience, you don't come across that very often.

The staff here was very helpful. I needed a place for my mom and had no idea where to begin. They helped me all the way. My mom has lived here for awhile now and has made really nice friends. The staff has always been very kind to me and my mom.

Dad is happy here. Every one I talk with treats my Dad really well and they are very nice to him. They are helpful to us when we go see my Dad. Genuine people. I'm glad we found this place.
