Peace & Harmony Alh sits at 107 Matthew Paul Way in Anchorage, Alaska, and the place has been around since spring of 2017, looking after people in a small and quiet setting with only four assisted living units, which means folks who want their own space but need some extra help can get it here, whether they want studio suites, single bedrooms, or to stay in a shared living area, and the rooms come furnished with amenities like telephones for keeping in touch. Meals are cooked daily-homemade, three times a day-with options for all-day dining, and menus that work for different allergies, diabetes, and special dietary needs, plus a dietitian helps keep meals on track for health and taste, and there's always someone around to handle dietary requirements, whether it's just regular food preferences or something more serious like dementia-friendly meals for memory care clients.
Help is always nearby for bathing, dressing, toileting, and moving around, with around-the-clock supervision and a licensed RN on hand, and staff also manage medications, coordinate with healthcare providers, and set up custom care plans, so people don't have to worry about the details-specialized staff know how to care for folks with Alzheimer's, and services stretch to include memory care, hospice, and respite when that's needed. Peace & Harmony offers extras like on-site physical therapy, a continence management program, and a host of activities: people gather for movie nights, game time, exercise, music therapy, and creative arts and crafts, and there's always a plan for social or educational events, walks around the garden or along outdoor trails, and sometimes animal therapy brings a little more warmth into the space. Folks can use the sauna, jacuzzi, health room, recreation rooms, and even a community book room, and there's a barber or mobile stylist for haircuts and grooming right at home.
Besides keeping the living space clean with housekeeping, trash removal, and laundry, the facility takes care of transportation needs, whether someone needs a ride to the doctor, wants to get out for a meal, or has errands around town, and for those who want to keep moving, there's help with escorts in the building and support for getting outside for fresh air and relaxation.
Community life brings people together in a garden, dining room, or for quiet private meals, and folks have plenty of time for board games, scheduled outings, and church or spiritual events if they like, all while being able to count on emergency response at any hour. Many come for the peace, the help, and the sense of harmony, and while it may not be fancy, you get the basics and a few comforts, all in a setting that puts health and happiness at the center, and the place keeps a community score of 3.8, which suggests folks find it pretty decent. Peace & Harmony Alh works as a family care home, keeping things simple, supporting different care needs, and letting people settle into a steady routine.
