Lhasa Assisted Living Home, also called LHASA ASSISTED LIVING HOME, sits at 4156 Checkmate Dr in Anchorage, Alaska, right by the Alaska Native Medical Center and Southcentral Foundation physician's office, so folks don't have to go far for their doctor visits or care, and the whole place only has three licensed beds, which makes it feel a bit homier and gives everyone a chance to get to know each other, especially with 24-hour staff and nurses always around, and residents can pick a studio or one-bedroom suite based on what suits them, so they don't have to feel too crowded or alone, and every room is set up with emergency alert systems, air conditioning, cable TV, and Wi-Fi so people can stay safe and connected, and if someone has a pet, both cats and dogs are allowed, which can bring some comfort when things get tough. Folks living here get help with everyday things like bathing, dressing, transferring, managing medicines, and handling meals, since there's a community kitchen, a bistro, a dining room, and meals made fresh by a chef with a dietitian supervising, and people can get meals tailored for allergies, diabetes, or other special needs, with three meals a day served so no one's left out, and if someone needs help moving around, non-ambulatory care is available, plus services inside the building. The home keeps things lively by offering a garden, walking paths, movie nights, arts and crafts, common areas, library, games room, pool and hot tub, gym, beauty salon, wellness center, and a chapel where devotional activities are held, and each person gets a personalized care plan based on needs checked regularly, while linen service, housekeeper service, dry cleaning for laundry, move-in coordination, and transportation for both medical and non-medical appointments are part of what makes daily life a bit easier, with 24-hour security and age-friendly features built in for safety and peace of mind.
A special part of Lhasa Assisted Living is the Orchard Assisted Living Psychological Services Center with a unique NPI number, 1811423486, and the whole assisted living home has another NPI, 1861051062, that helps set it apart because the main focus there is psychological care for seniors-especially those living with mental retardation and developmental disabilities, and they've got licensed psychologists on staff who do psycheducational evaluation, therapy, remediation, and all kinds of assessments including neuropsychological testing, personal characteristic evaluations, help with behavior issues, substance abuse, and mental or emotional disorders, and residents get access to one-on-one therapy, psychoanalysis, behavior analysis, and biofeedback when needed, plus there are school, clinical, and counseling psychologists, not just for residents but for others in the community as well since the center is authorized to handle behavioral health and social services. Memory Care is another important part, with secure environments and special activities for people with memory loss or Alzheimer's, and they try to keep folks engaged with things like movie nights, outings, structured programs, and social engagement activities. The owner and administrator, Sherab Tenzin, keeps the place going with attention to state and local licensing rules, and the center works with the Department of Aging and may help veterans when needed. People needing surgery recovery care, respite stays, or long-term support can find help here, and every service aims to keep people as independent as possible while offering the backup and help they need. Residents can expect meal preparation with fresh food, emergency systems in every room, medical appointment transport, on-site physical therapy, medication management, incontinence support, and help with dressing-for anyone needing extra care due to age, memory, or health. Lhasa Assisted Living Home stays small and focused so people don't fall through the cracks, giving families a sense of peace that their loved one's health, safety, and quality of life are being watched over with all the resources expected from a full-service assisted living home.
