The Gables Assisted Living of Pocatello sits in Southeast Idaho and offers assisted living and memory care to seniors who need different levels of support, and the staff are trained to provide help around the clock, so residents get assistance with bathing, dressing, medication management, walking, and eating as needed, and the place is known for its caring atmosphere where folks can keep their dignity and independence while staff work with them and their families to make personalized care plans. Many people appreciate the smaller homes at The Gables because they let residents and staff become familiar with each other, and the facility has a strong record of keeping family involved through regular communication and visits. Residents live in private or shared suites, with options like studio or semi-private rooms, and each suite is set up for comfort and safety, including handrails in the halls and bathrooms with fold-away seats.
Memory care is in a separate, secure building with staff awake at all hours, and the team uses bracelets so anyone who's prone to wandering can stay safe, which is helpful for people with Alzheimer's and dementia. Staff can handle both daily issues and sudden needs, plus they help residents with behavior challenges who might have trouble in other places. Besides assisted living and memory care, the Gables offers short-term and respite care, in-home care, companion care, hospice support, and even hourly adult care, with nurses handling things like insulin, shots, blood sugar checks, and more.
Meals come prepared on-site and can fit special diets such as low or no sodium and low or no sugar, and meals are served either in the dining room or by room service if someone isn't feeling up to joining others. Housekeeping and laundry are included, so residents have fewer chores, and there are wellness programs, exercise groups, devotional services offsite, onsite beautician services, and plenty of social activities like arts and brain fitness to keep everyone active. There's scheduled transportation for outings and appointments, with parking available for those who drive, though residents can also get escorted wherever they need to go. Safety is a focus, with 24-hour staff, emergency call pendants, locked and coded entries and exits, and plenty of supervision.
Everyone gets a care plan matching their own situation, and because of the range of services-whether it's long-term care, memory care, respite, or in-home support-each person can get exactly what they need, for as long as they need it. Rooms and common areas, indoors and outdoors, are set up to help people socialize and enjoy a homelike setting, and the community has a quiet reputation for dedicated staff and close relationships between residents, families, and caregivers. The Gables Assisted Living of Pocatello has a 4.5-star rating from a couple of reviews, is fully licensed, and its long-term care, memory care, and assisted living services make it one of the main facilities listed for this part of Idaho. All of this makes life smoother and friendlier for the people who live there.
