Home Care That Knows Sandy
Life in Sandy comes with Mount Hood views and a longer drive to the hospital in Gresham. Winter weather can make that drive harder still, which is when having a caregiver nearby matters most: someone who can help at home, keep the pantry stocked, and get your loved one to appointments safely.
Sandy is the easternmost city in Clackamas County and the western entrance to the Mount Hood corridor on Highway 26, about 27 miles east of Portland, at elevations from about 750 to over 1,000 feet, so winter weather can be harsher than in the valley. The closest hospital, Legacy Mount Hood Medical Center, is in Gresham, so appointments and hospital visits usually mean a drive down Highway 26. In the 2020 Census, 12.0% of residents were 65 or older.

Two Brothers. One Promise to Sandy Families.
Jacob and Zac Schmerber were born and raised in Portland, and they started Providential so every senior in their community does more than age in place; they thrive in it. You won't be routed through a national call center: you'll talk with the people who run the company, and they'll stay involved in your loved one's care.
Every plan starts with a conversation about the person (their routines, their history, and what a good day looks like), and we match caregivers to fit.

Sandy Home Care Questions
Can a caregiver drive my parent from Sandy to appointments in Gresham or Portland?
Yes. Transportation to medical appointments, the pharmacy, and errands is a common part of non-medical in-home care. Caregivers can also stay with your loved one during the visit and help them settle back in at home.
What about winter weather and power outages on the mountain side of the metro?
Caregivers can help seniors prepare by keeping food and supplies stocked, checking in during storms, and helping with safe movement around icy entryways. A care plan can include extra check-ins when weather is expected.
Is in-home care licensed in Oregon?
Yes. Oregon in-home care agencies are licensed by the Oregon Health Authority. Families can ask an agency for its license details before care begins. Providential Home Care holds an Oregon Comprehensive In-Home Care Agency license (#15-2483).
