Redwood Heights by Cogir

Kris was absolutely wonderful! She gave us a tour and was so kind and caring. The facility was very clean and the staff were personable and friendly. The residents that I saw seemed happy and were approachable as well. There seems to be a lot of resident involvement for activities. Priced about the same as other places nearby- I am sad that they don’t take Medicaid spend down (which means that after you spend your money in your bank you would have to move). I would definitely recommend checking this place out if you are able to pay privately. She did give us a good recommendation that does accept Medicaid spend down and we are moving my family to that place - so we are so very grateful for her great recommendation as well!

I previously left a review noting how great it was that the facility hosted an estate planning presentation for residents. Since then, I’ve called multiple times to ask when the next presentation will be scheduled, as a family friend of mine who lives there is very interested in hearing from the same attorney again. Unfortunately, I haven’t received a response. I still think these presentations are incredibly valuable and hope the facility continues offering them—but better communication around scheduling and follow-up would go a long way. I’d really appreciate an update on whether another estate planning presentation is planned. Could you please let me know when there will be another presentation?

Our brother-in-law moved into Redwood Heights Assisted Living in August of this year. After an extensive search for the best assisted living community in the Salem, Oregon area, our family chose Redwood Heights — and we are so glad we did. From the moment you walk in, the community feels welcoming and bright. The main common areas are filled with natural light and large windows, allowing residents to enjoy the beauty of their outdoor surroundings. The apartments are very nice, comfortable, and thoughtfully appointed. What truly sets Redwood Heights apart, however, is the staff. They are exceptional — attentive, responsive, and genuinely caring. They consistently go above and beyond to meet our brother-in-law’s needs, and it is clear that the residents are treated with dignity, kindness, and respect. During the holidays, the staff went all out to ensure residents felt celebrated and included. For both Thanksgiving and Christmas, they hosted beautifully organized dinners for residents and their guests, complete with full-course meals and dessert. The Christmas celebration was especially memorable, featuring mimosas, Christmas carolers, and a trio of young girls singing carols and playing the violin. The entire staff worked incredibly hard to make the evening festive and meaningful for everyone. We’ve had the pleasure of getting to know Jenny, the Executive Director, and many members of her team over the past several months. The entire staff is compassionate, dedicated, and hardworking, and it shows in every interaction. Most importantly, our brother-in-law is happy. He loves the environment, truly enjoys the staff, and has developed a wonderful group of friends. He often says it feels like he’s living with “80 brothers and sisters,” which speaks volumes about the sense of community at Redwood Heights. All in all, if you are looking for an assisted living facility where your loved one will be well cared for, supported, and treated like family, Redwood Heights Assisted
