Mary’s Woods at Marylhurst is a nonprofit continuing care retirement community (CCRC) located in Lake Oswego, Oregon. The community offers a comprehensive array of care options, including independent living, assisted living, memory care, and skilled nursing services, making it suited for residents with varying and evolving care needs. Its campus features a historic setting along the Willamette River, and the facility supports a range of wellness programs, lifelong learning opportunities, and support services.

As a provider of skilled nursing services, Mary’s Woods offers medication coordination and related medical support as part of its care approach. Nursing staff are responsible for administering medications, monitoring for side effects, and ensuring timely dosing as prescribed by residents’ healthcare providers. However, resident and family reviews of the facility highlight widely differing experiences regarding the quality of care and medication support. Some families have expressed concerns about medication errors, poor communication regarding health issues, and difficulties coordinating care—highlighting instances of missed medications and delayed response to resident needs. Reports also include concerns over transparency, management changes, and staff responsiveness. Conversely, testimonials from service providers and partners often describe the staff as supportive and professional, noting smooth processes and well-maintained facilities. The contrasting nature of these reviews suggests that experiences with medication management and general care may vary within the community, depending on the circumstances and level of family or partner involvement.
Costs at this community start at $1,500 and range up to $7,265. The average price in the community is $4,382, which is less than the average price in the area of $4,871. The cost of nursing homes in this area is essentially the same as the cost throughout the state. If the resident needs other services, additional services may increase the monthly cost.
