Bainbridge Senior Living Winslow Manor sits in a peaceful spot on Bainbridge Island, with quick access to parks, pharmacies, doctors' offices, restaurants, shopping, and public transportation, and you'll find the buildings look like small, modern hotels with gentle views of Eagle Harbor all year round, which is nice if you like a bit of water in your day, and the location's close to downtown and the Senior Center, where they have congregant meals for a small donation. Residents have apartments with two bedrooms, one bathroom, a full laundry room, a roomy kitchen, and you get basic cable and 24-hour security, along with an active community room for socializing and getting together when you want to. The place is family-owned and started back in 1990, and Bainbridge Senior Living has four locations on the island-Winslow Manor, Wyatt House, Madison House, and Madrona House-so there's options for folks depending on what they need, from independent living to assisted living to memory care and even respite care, with every place designed to help people stay comfortable and safe, whether you need a bit of help or just want an easier life.
The staff keeps meals tasty, with a skilled kitchen team that makes sure there are vegetarian options and special diets taken care of, and seniors can even use a community kitchen if they want to make something themselves, and on top of that, there's a complimentary dinner Monday through Friday. Apartments and common areas have bathtubs and wheelchair accessible showers, plus spaces for relaxing both inside and out, so people can find quiet spots or visit with neighbors. Activities happen all the time-exercise classes, workshops, arts and crafts, group trips out, entertainment, and programs meant to bring people together and keep the mind sharp-sometimes even winning awards for this kind of thing. If someone's dealing with memory loss, Madrona House, part of Winslow Manor, has special features made to help with dementia and Alzheimer's, with secure areas, structured programs that limit confusion, and extra security to keep people safe without them feeling boxed in, and the services there offer the next generation of care for people who need that extra support. Support staff helps with dressing, bathing, and managing medicine, and they're known around the place for being friendly and quick to help out, making things easier for everybody. Folks are allowed to organize their own apartments with their own furniture, which helps it feel more like home, and with everything built on one or two floors with elevators, it's easy to get around for those using walkers or wheelchairs. The apartments work well for seniors aged sixty-two and older, and they allow for children under eighteen, which is uncommon, and that gives more flexibility for those who need family accommodations. People at Bainbridge Senior Living Winslow Manor find a pleasant, welcoming community, where they're encouraged to take part in life as much as they want or just relax and enjoy the harbor view from their window.
