BrightStar Care Homes Assisted Living at Summerset offers a small senior living option with only 8 beds, sitting about 4.6 miles outside Meridian, Idaho, in Boise, so there's a close-knit, homelike feel that promotes comfort and a sense of belonging, and the idea is to make things feel more like a real home than a big institution, with cozy common areas for relaxation and socializing, as well as safe outdoor spaces for getting some fresh air. Residents can pick from studio layouts, a semi-private option, or a 1-bedroom assisted living accommodation, all designed to make moving around easy, and the facility's built to support seniors with different levels of independence, providing personal care and assistance any time of day or night.
Trained and compassionate staff, including a Registered Nurse who manages personal care plans, help with daily living activities like bathing, dressing, and medication, so residents who want to keep their independence can do so, but staff are always nearby for support. Meal times offer home-cooked food tailored for nutrition and individual tastes, and there are activity programs that encourage social engagement, with features that help reduce confusion and wandering for those who need memory care because of Alzheimer's or other dementia.
The facility uses an all-inclusive pricing model, accepts private pay and long-term care insurance, and takes care of housework like laundry and cleaning, so residents don't have to worry about those chores, and support is available around the clock. Because it's part of the BrightStar Care franchise network - which is recognized for healthcare and includes home care, skilled nursing, and memory care - residents benefit from ongoing operational support and access to care for most needs, with a focus on each resident's personal routines and lifestyle preferences. BrightStar Care Homes Assisted Living at Summerset is licensed (AL License # RC-1192) for both assisted living and home care support, with a range of amenities for both independent and assisted lifestyles, and is set up to help older adults live as independently as possible, while giving them the support they need when they need it.
