Golfview Residential Care Facility sits at 5611 Colby Avenue in Everett, Washington, providing residential and senior housing services as a licensed Adult Family Home with 8 beds. The home's managed by two registered nurses who make sure residents get personal, skilled care, and the place has been recognized with the Monte Cristo Award for its attractive, well-kept yard and gardens, which look out over water and mountains. Staff help seniors with dementia, Parkinson's, stroke, and other health needs by offering memory care, medication management, specialized diets, wound care, blood thinner checks, support for vision and hearing issues, and a special intervention program for dementia. The staff keeps a close caregiver to resident ratio of 1 to 2, and there's 24-hour care, health monitoring, emergency call buttons, fall prevention, bathing help, and assistance getting in and out of bed, with licensed nurses on site.
Residents can choose from small studios with a simple, functional design, private rooms, semi-private units, or one-bedroom options. The building has easy wheelchair and walker access, air conditioning, cable or satellite TV, internet, and a security alarm system, plus rooms set up to reduce confusion and wandering for those with memory issues. The beauty and barber shop, fitness center, massage services, theatre room, greenhouse, community kitchen and studio for arts and crafts give plenty to do, while the cafe, wheelchair-friendly gardens, and decks offer spots to relax. The kitchen serves nutritious, dementia-friendly meals and cooks for special dietary needs, with a focus on health. There's laundry service and a pharmacy on site, so daily chores are easier, and transportation services make it simple for residents to get to appointments or outings. Seniors can keep small pets, too.
Golfview has a friendly culture and the staff often organize church visits, birthday parties, exercise classes, games like bingo, holiday celebrations, barbecues, music therapy, dancing, singing, and group activities focused on keeping residents active physically, mentally, and socially. There's music entertainment, visits from doctors, podiatrists, and speech therapists, as well as off-site physical, occupational, and speech therapy. The home does offer respite care for seniors who need a temporary stay from a few weeks to months. Visitors are welcome between 9:00am and 8:00pm, and scheduled tours-including virtual and on-site visits-help families see what daily life looks like here. Golfview Residential Care Facility's been featured in the local Herald newspaper and stands out for its caring staff, clean environment, and commitment to personal, safe care for seniors, especially those living with memory loss. Prices depend on the chosen room, care level, and extra services, and the home doesn't accept Medicare unless certified by the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services. Amenities nearby include cafes, parks, restaurants, theaters, and places of worship, and there's a hospital close by for added peace of mind.
