Title

Adult Foster Care, Assisted Living and Elder Care Referral Services, Portland Oregon and Southwest Washington State

Description

As a Senior Engineer with a large national management consulting company, Glen Haddock was asked in 1983 to testify before the Oregon legislature as to the business viability of the small home care concept for seniors.

In the early 1980's, Oregon put a moratorium on the Certificate of Need process for new nursing home beds with the intent of moving state Medicaid clients into a less costly and more social model of care. A Medicaid waiver was granted to Oregon to pay for care in a more home-like setting. The first concept was for Adult Foster Homes and later, Assisted Living.

Glen found that this new concept was difficult to sell to medical professionals and the public because the homes were unlicensed in any way, and the public had no way to know who, either by ability or intent, could provide safe, quality care for Oregon's seniors.
