Huckleberry Retirement Homes IV, found in a quiet part of Sandpoint, Idaho, sits as a small assisted living community able to care for up to eight residents at a time, which means people can expect a close-knit feeling and maybe a little more attention from staff, who can help with things like bathing, dressing, and getting around every day, especially if someone has trouble with mobility, dementia, Parkinson's disease, or diabetes, since the care plans get adjusted for each person after a service assessment so nobody falls through the cracks, and they try their best to give a bit of independence while seeing folks stay safe and supported, with staff on call all day and night, emergency pull cords in each unit, and regular housekeeping to keep things tidy. The place offers different living setups, so people can pick a private bedroom, a studio apartment, or shared quarters, and every room comes furnished for convenience, with safe designs in mind, and people who move in can choose to pay privately by cash or check.
Each day brings three home-cooked meals in a dining hall where chef-prepared dishes consider special diets, including choices for diabetes, high blood pressure, allergies, or dementia, and if someone wants to eat later or earlier, all-day dining is available, and if it's hard to get out to see a doctor, pharmacy, or run errands, the staff can arrange or provide transportation. Health care services, physical therapy, medication management, and case management are all present on-site, and there's even access to home health workers, so residents get what they need without leaving home, plus there's a nurse on staff and medical help available when needed, and housekeeping, laundry, and dry cleaning are all handled, which takes the work out of daily chores. Activities and events stay on the calendar all week, so residents get games like bingo and cards, movie nights, music, creative arts, and daily fitness classes-plus things like animal therapy, outings, or walks along the garden paths, greenhouse, or wellness area, all meant to keep people active in mind and body, and there's a games room, arts room, reading room, computers, and places to just sit for a chat, as well as a private dining area for family visits. For grooming, there's a salon and barber on the property and a hot tub and steam room for those wanting to relax or keep up their routines.
The building is licensed under Idaho license # RC-668 and stands close to other facilities like Luther Park At Sandpoint and Evergreen - Idaho Health Care Sandpoint, making the area fit for seniors. The grounds are fully secured, walking paths and gardens allow for outdoor leisure, and activities keep loneliness at bay. With both memory care for Alzheimer's and dementia, as well as general assisted living, Huckleberry Retirement Homes IV aims for a supportive setting where each resident can keep up their health and well-being, aided by trained staff and the comfort of being around just a handful of neighbors instead of a crowd, all making for a peaceful place to age, though folks should know reviews on the community are limited and not especially high rated, so touring and asking questions might be wise before deciding.
