Hi Melissa, just now saw this post, have been away for several days...
There are really nice places to live right in Portland near Emmanuel Hospital. I wouldn't rule it out. NE is a hip cool place to live with plenty of green friendly types. If you go about 3-5 miles east of the hospital the housing is more affordable, though slightly more rundown and mixed neighborhoods. I still think you should try outer Portland on the NE side, on the way to Fairview/Troutdale. If you had to you could take surface streets all the way to Emmanuel (Hwy 30 or Sandy Blvd to Broadway to Emmanuel Hospital).
Hope all's well and good luck!
