Meet Kathy, Quad Inc. attendant care staff member of over 16 years. Kathy started her caregiving career 23 years ago after moving to Oregon. She began working as a personal care assistant and began training as a Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA). Shortly after receiving her CNA license, Kathy heard about Quad and applied for a job. Looking back at the past 16 years with Quad, Kathy says “To me, I am going to retire out of here [Quad]. I have been here for so long, I really do love this place. I have learned a lot.” When asked for advice for someone starting out in caregiving, Kathy thinks it is important to “Be patient. Be very patient. Listen, and try to understand.”

Welcome to Myers Court Apartments! Built in 1980, Myers Court was Quad Inc.’s first project to be built and America’s first independent living facility unaffiliated with a hospital or rehabilitation center. Its pioneering, barrier-free design predated the wheelchair accessibility standards of the Americans with Disabilities Act by a decade and continues to serve the needs of individuals with physical disabilities to this day. Myers Court is located in the heart of North Portland, near major TriMet max lines, bus routes, and an array of restaurants and grocery stores. With 18 fully accessible studio apartments, a grand courtyard, garden beds and community room, Myers Court welcomes individuals living with physical disabilities looking for an accessible place to call home.

All Quad Inc. buildings offer optional, 24/7 shared attendant care with onsite staff to support residents who choose to enroll. Quad services support activities of daily living including wake-up and bedtime care, cooking, medical assistance, project assistance, activities, and more. To promote and maintain residents’ independence, Quad gives residents the power to choose and direct services themselves, ensuring they receive the help and support they really need.

Interested in applying for wheelchair-accessible housing? Visit our website, www.quadinc.org to learn more about our housing program, access application forms and learn more about our supportive services.

Say hello to Ash, a Personal Care Attendant who has been working for Quad Inc. for over a year. Ash says her favorite thing about Quad is the people she works with and the residents at her building. She also says one of her favorite things is her Community Manager, Heather McWaid. When asked what Quad means to her, Ash says “to me it is just people helping people, to each of their ability and to each of their needs. We are all just people here and I know I as a person, need help sometimes and we all do, so why not help people for my living?

One of the most important things she has learned from her tenure at Quad is owning her time management.

Working at Quad, Ash says it “just feels right here, I finally feel like I’ve found the place where I fit in and I found my people, I love it.”
