Aegis of Edmonds offers specialized programs for diabetes care, clinical conditions like high blood pressure, and major behavior support. Its secured memory care building uses technology like safety bracelets and its Revere℠ Memory Care program uses relationship-based support to help residents with dementia or Alzheimer's stay connected. For those growing needs, the staff can help with mechanical lifts for transfers and care for residents at light, medium, or heavy assistance levels, including those with bowel or bladder issues as long as they can help with restroom use themselves. The community provides a social model of care to encourage independence, and care plans are made just for each resident.
You'll find lots of activities scheduled each week-everything from music therapy, pet visits, gardening, tabletop games, movie nights, and daily exercise classes to creative arts, intellectual speakers, and even TED-style talks. Residents enjoy outings to local places like the Edmonds Center for the Arts or the beach, and there's a small dog park along with three courtyards for outdoor time. Exercise and wellness programs run each day, with amenities like a putting green, billiards room, jacuzzis, saunas, salon, book room, and more. Meals include vegetarian choices prepared by a chef and you can get meals anytime with 24-hour dining. Transportation is coordinated for trips to doctor appointments, errands, or faith services, and the location is also close to bus lines.
Laundry and housekeeping are handled for residents. Those who want to enjoy pampering can look forward to weekly facials, massages, and beauty appointments at the on-site salon. Happy hour, trivia games, car shows, and holiday celebrations bring a social touch, and the staff keeps a joyful, friendly atmosphere while treating everyone like family. There's a focus on safety and security, with things like locked doors where needed and accessible showers and tubs, plus bracelets in the memory care wing that help keep residents safe from wandering. Companion and home care services are nearby for folks who don't need to move in, and nearby independent and nursing care options can offer support if needs change.
Rooms, care, and services come with clear fees depending on the level of care needed, and a community fee starts things off. The community accepts residents who might wander or have behavior challenges and has space for spouses or companions with second-person fees. Pets are welcome and smoking is allowed in designated outdoor areas only. The goal here is to make sure seniors live in a familiar, caring place where their health, security, and happiness come first, and staff pays attention to each person's needs with a variety of support and engaging activities.
