Rocking Years Assisted Living Home, also known as Rocking Years II, sits on Jefferson Drive in Fairbanks, Alaska, and offers a safe and comfortable home for elderly residents who need assisted living or memory care. This is a single-story building so there aren't any stairs to worry about, and the home's been taking care of seniors for over 30 years as one of the oldest assisted-living homes in Alaska. The facility serves people who pay privately, use Medicaid Waiver, or have long-term care insurance. The atmosphere feels warm and home-like, with staff and caregivers who know the residents and treat everyone with respect.
Residents can choose from private or semi-private rooms that come fully furnished, have carpeting, closets, windows for natural light, and safety features. The rooms are bright and spacious, with social areas and recreation spaces where people can gather for fitness classes or activities. The staff makes sure each person gets help with personal care like washing, dressing, or taking medicine, and staff are always around day and night for any needs, including on-call support close by. Rocking Years provides transportation services, so residents can get to appointments, shops, or church nearby, as the home's close to healthcare offices, retail stores, and drugstores.
There's a big focus on keeping people as independent as possible while still giving dependable help and support when it's needed, and the dedicated team plans exercise programs, entertainment, and social gatherings so there's something for everyone to do. The home specializes in helping people living with Dementia, Alzheimer's, incontinence, or those needing hospice care, and the personal care here gets tailored for each resident, whether they need a lot or a little help each day. It's a nursing home and residential care home with a simple, low-key feel, also offering a maintenance-free lifestyle, bright common spaces, and a safe, secure spot to call home. Rocking Years strives to keep the days purposeful and fulfilling, focusing on comfort, safety, and a sense of belonging for all residents.
