Lisa at Sellwood Senior Living truly changed our lives. The care and support she provided for my grandmother was unbelievable. We couldn’t have loved her time there more. Lisa went above and beyond, making every transition smooth and filled with kindness. I can’t say enough about how much we appreciate Lisa and all of her hard work — she made such a meaningful difference during my grandmother’s time at Sellwood.

This company has a serious issue with paying its vendors. If you are considering providing them with a service or product, proceed with caution. We completed work for them back in February and, despite repeated follow-ups, have still not been paid. Their pattern has been months of excuses, and we are now pursuing legal action. For potential residents: be aware that this company does not honor its obligations to those who serve them.

I had a delightful tour of Sellwood. It is pleasant, clean and a very friendly place. I haven’t decided on a location yet because of his specialized need for supervision. I am definitely considering Sellwood!
