Bellevue Heights Adult Family Home sits in Bellevue, WA, in King County, and has six licensed beds in a cozy, home-like setting that feels more like a home than a big institution, and the place is designed for adults who need some help but don't need full-time hospital care. Residents get support from dedicated staff with daily activities like bathing, dressing, medication reminders, and personal care, and there's always someone on duty day and night. Nurses are on staff, there's a doctor on call, and a podiatrist and dentist can visit, with hospice services offered if needed, and care plans fit each person's own needs-whether someone needs help walking, managing diabetes, or living with memory concerns like Alzheimer's or dementia, and the home offers memory care in secure spaces and programs to help boost memory. People can get help with incontinence care, wound care, and even high acuity needs if that's required, and staff help with spoon feeding if needed, hygiene reminders, and supervision for residents at risk of falls or with food safety issues, and support ranges from folks who need only a bit of help to those with big mobility challenges.
Residents can pick from private rooms, shared living quarters, or studio options-all with safe touches like non-slip floors and wheelchair-accessible showers, and there are bath tubs for those who prefer them. The community welcomes either men or women in a gender-specific setting, offers pet-friendly policies, and there's resident parking. Meals are provided with vegetarian and kosher options available, snacks are offered too, and staff help with special diets for diabetes or other health needs. Regular housekeeping keeps rooms tidy, and residents can use the beauty salon or barber services on site.
The home has spaces inside and outside for relaxing or gathering, with places for games, entertainment, and a dining hall that's easy to get around in, and sometimes you'll find a theater room for movies. There are devotional services for those who want them, and activities happen both inside the home and out in the community. Staff plan fall prevention programs, offer massage therapy if wanted, and provide exercise areas, and transportation is available-sometimes at extra cost-or free for appointments, making it easier for people who no longer drive. Emergency pendants are available, so residents can quickly get help if there's a problem. Families can join in support meetings, and there are special concierge services to help both residents and their loved ones stay connected and informed.
Bellevue Heights Adult Family Home is licensed and surveyed by state or local authorities, providing long-term care and board and care services for seniors, as well as respite stays if a family caregiver needs a break. The home helps adults age in place, so folks can stay in a familiar setting even as needs change. Payment types may vary since the home doesn't take Medicare unless certified by the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services. The home is focused on making life safe and comfortable for people who can't fully live on their own but want to keep as much independence as possible, giving both seniors and their families peace of mind knowing help is always nearby.
