Augustin Care Home, operated by Augustin Gligan in Portland, Oregon, functions as a residential care home equipped to manage a range of medical needs. The team can provide wound care, administer oxygen, and monitor residents who require special diets, including diabetic management for those on oral medications. Residents under 60 years old can be admitted when appropriate, and the staff is trained to support individuals living with advanced dementia.
Around-the-clock staff coverage includes a nurse on call 24 hours a day, and every employee undergoes background checks. Security measures feature a fenced rear area and continuous on-site personnel, with an asleep night shift in place to respond if required. Direct care services cover full assistance with bathing, eating, dressing, and toileting. Transfer help ranges from standby supervision to one- or two-person lifts, full transfer using a Hoyer lift, and bed-bound care, ensuring mobility support for residents who use walkers or wheelchairs.
Private and semi-private rooms are available furnished, and residents may paint or decorate their space to feel more at home. Cable service, regular housekeeping, and scheduled laundry are offered in select rooms, although not every accommodation includes every feature.
Meals follow either a set menu or on-order approach, and snacks are available throughout the day. The kitchen can modify textures or nutrients to meet medical and personal dietary requirements, coordinating with the clinical team for residents on special diets or with diabetes.
Common areas are wheelchair accessible, and residents have access to internet service for communication and entertainment.
