Beehive Homes Of Richfield #1 sits at 540 North 600 West in Richfield, Utah, and provides assisted living, memory care, and short-term respite care for up to 12 residents in a quiet, home-like setting that feels more like a house than a large facility, and when thinking of rooms, it's easy to picture private bedrooms with their own bathrooms-each with an ADA shower for safer bathing, and some rooms can even fit couples, if that's what's needed, though you'll want to check on availability. Staff are always there, awake and on-site, so help is never far away. There's a consulting nurse available any time, too, and if a doctor orders home health, that can be arranged.
The community covers all utilities, including telephone and cable TV in the rooms, plus public Wi-Fi for anyone who wants it, and the place is smoke-free, which is good for health and comfort. Housekeeping and laundry happen every day, so cleanliness is not a worry, and fresh bed linens and towels are provided. Residents eat home-cooked meals approved by a dietitian, and staff adjust meals for special diets like diabetes or allergies. They serve meals in a cozy dining room, and snacks are available throughout the day.
Activities are part of daily life-things like crafts, games, exercise, music, singing, storytelling, gardening, and clubs for books, history, and art, and staff adapt these so everyone can join at their own comfort level. The secure outdoor courtyard, walking paths, and garden give a spot to get fresh air or spend time visiting. Transportation for doctor visits is available, and there's a visiting policy that's flexible with hours that fit the needs of both residents and their families.
Support for daily activities like bathing, dressing, transfers, and medication management is part of the regular routine, and the staff work closely with residents and families to make sure personal needs are met, especially in memory care where they focus on each person's differences and comfort. Emergency alert systems are in place if someone needs help quickly. The whole community strives to keep independence as much as possible, but with help always nearby, and it stays small so everyone gets more personal attention, which families tend to appreciate.
For those who just need a break or some short-term care-maybe after surgery or if someone's usual caregiver is away-respite stays come with a furnished room, home-cooked meals, and a full set of daily activities so things stay lively. Move-in coordination helps new residents get settled, and the staff make it a point to get to know everyone's routines so they can adapt support as needs change. The place has a high staff-to-resident ratio, so care doesn't feel rushed, and keeping things family-oriented encourages both residents and families to stay involved in everyday life.
