Assisted Living, Northwest style.

Our community is in the center of attractions Portlandian seniors love … the spectacular Hite Rose Garden is next door. We’re near North Clackamas Park and the Milwaukie Community Center. Deerfield Village offers assisted living and short-term respite care. Ours is an “open-door” community where residents encourage each other to stop by, drop in and socialize. This builds connections and wonderful friendships. Our Milwaukie community is cozy and comfortable, and our family-style atmosphere makes bonding with friends and enjoying life together easy. Deerfield Village has an unmatched welcoming feel, and you notice it the moment you enter.  

With more time, more friends, a little assistance and a lot of helpful support, residents can live fully and happily while enjoying everything the community and a great Milwaukie location have to offer. Assisted living is the extra support that often means the difference between living and living well. Here, our team focuses on providing a hyper-personal lifestyle that encourages self-choice and independence. Our programs and entertainment help residents remain active by providing daily opportunities to enjoy group activities and clubs, fitness programs, trips to nearby attractions and more. 

We also take care of daily chores like cooking, cleaning and home maintenance, making life stress-free. Even better, we provide around-the-clock assistance with the activities of daily living, including bathing, dressing, grooming and gentle medication reminders. Our friendly team collaborates with each resident to create schedules based on individual preferences and needs. 

Our dedicated care partners and senior wellness team help residents discover (and celebrate) new independence and freedom that may have been waning at home. Couple that support with an engaging, maintenance-free lifestyle, and there’s more time to enjoy the countless opportunities that come with community living. 

The lifestyle at Deerfield Village Assisted Living is complemented by a parklike campus with stunning views and spacious pet-friendly senior apartments that feature kitchenettes and full bathrooms. 

But sometimes, the smallest things make the biggest difference … a warm hello delivered with a smile. Caregivers who listen with enthusiasm, anticipate needs and respond appropriately. A culture that celebrates individuality and respects differences.
