SNF's in Portland, OR

First step, look up the facilities at Nursing Home Compare

Check the type of ownership, number of beds, inspection results, staffing, quality measures, etc.

Albeit, first hand info from former or current employees is best. Good luck!

hello Portland!
i'm relocating there Nov.1 and will be looking for a FT night or pm position in a SNF. i'm not familiar with the area yet, but i'll be staying with my son at first, and these are nearest his home. most have at least part-time openings - i've searched the newspapers and Craigslist and there seems to be plenty of work to be had.
i would be grateful if anyone would be willing to share information either here or by PM about these facilities, or any others.

I did a clinical experience at Crestview two terms ago. But, it's in the SW area and it looks as though those that you've listed are in the SE and NE area (I think most of them are).

I did like the staff at Crestview, but truthfully I was really bored in a SNF. It just isn't for me. If I can answer any more questions feel free to ask. I'll give it my best shot!
