Assisted living facility in area explored
A committee interested in
seeing an assisted-living facility
established in the Willow Creek
Valley (WCVAL-Willow Creek
Valley Assisted Living) has been
formed and will send out a two-
question questionnaire with the
Columbia Basin Electric billing
statements
The questionnaire is designed to
determine how much interest
there is in such a facility in the
Willow Creek Valley, which
includes Heppner, Lexington and
lone. The committee urges
people to respond to the
questionnaire and either send
completed questionnaires back to
CBEC with their bills or drop
them off in drop boxes at the
following locations: in Heppner
at the Post Office and Central
Market; in Lexington at the
MCGG mini mart; and in lone at
the Post Office.
According to the committee, an
assisted living facility would
provide a place for intermediate
care for seniors-between Pioneer
Memorial Nursing Home, which
provides high level care, and the
St. Patrick Senior Center, which
is designed for independent
living.
An assisted living facility
would accommodate those who
cannot perform one or more of
the activities involved in daily
living, such as bathing, dressing,
taking medications, preparing
meals, using the bathroom or
transferring, such as from a bed
to a walker, for example.
The committee has visited
Summit Springs, the assisted
living facility' in Condon and
plans to tour other facilities.
The group is in the process of
applying for 501(C)3 non-profit
status and plan to apply for a
Community Development Block
Grant to help finance a feasibility
study. They also have scheduled
a meeting with Denny Newell,
CAPECO executive director, and
with Judy Bauman, executive
director of LINK, a community
development corporation.
The committee would like to
meet with local organizations to
discuss the project. Any group
interested may call committee

and Bob Jepsen, Heppner mayor.
Jepsen said that the process
of establishing an assisted living
facility may take three to four
years or more. Their greatest
need now, she said, is a site.
Anyone who may be interested in
donating a site for the facility is
asked to call her.

From Port Orford to Nyssa. from
Ashland to Hermiston, every
Oregon small town has an inter
esting past. Being from a small
town ourselves, we at Klamath
First know that each one also has
a promising luture. W e’ve helped
people in our home town see
brighter days ahead lor more than
60 years. And now, while other
institutions are perceiving small
towns as financial dead ends —
terminating important services —
we re beginning new relationships
in 33 locations throughout the
state. So come start a relationship
with us today. Together, we can
work to make
it grow for
years and
years to come.
