Paradise Island Adult Family sits in Everett, WA, in Snohomish County and operates as an adult family home under Paradise Island Adult Family Homes LLC, with licensed care for up to 6 residents, so the place never feels crowded or loud, and you'll usually find a quiet atmosphere with a sense of comfort. The staff stays on site 24 hours a day, and people have described them as experienced and caring, making sure to provide help with day-to-day needs such as dressing, bathing, toileting, medication management, and meals, and there's always help around for mobility, incontinence care, and oxygen therapy if someone requires that kind of thing, even for those needing high-acuity care or specialized help with diabetes, dementia, mental health, developmental disabilities, Parkinson's, and even stroke rehabilitation, because their goal seems to be meeting physical, emotional, and spiritual needs in a homelike setting.
Residents have a choice of private or semi-private rooms, with both options costing $5,250 per month, and the rooms have wheelchair accessible showers or tubs, so even people with mobility concerns can manage; folks can bring in their own cats or dogs with some restrictions and can expect regular pet therapy or visits, although pets don't live at the facility, which can be a comfort for animal lovers. The board and care home offers studio, single, and two-bedroom accommodations, each with private patios, water or mountain views, and some secure fencing for people who are prone to wander due to memory concerns, and there are common areas both inside and outdoors for socializing, relaxing, or enjoying the gardens, so no one feels cooped up.
Medical services seem well covered, with regular visits from doctors, nurses, and specialists, pharmacy deliveries, access to speech, physical, occupational, and podiatry therapies, and services like wound care, catheter and colostomy care, feeding tubes, trach care, dialysis support, and even specialized behavior support available-plus access to hospice, home health, and palliative care for those who need it, and the home isn't shy about handling challenging needs like bed-bound care, quadriplegic support, mental health, and TBI care.
There's a strong sense of routine, warmth, and respect, with the place structured around Christian values, devotional activities, on-site services like salon and barber visits, a fitness center, and health and wellness programs, though people with all backgrounds seem welcome. For entertainment and social life, an activity director plans arts and crafts, board games, bingo, movie nights, gardening, music therapy, birthday and holiday parties, plus cooking therapy and reading or puzzle groups, so the days don't drag and there's something for everyone.
The house provides all meals with special diets, such as vegetarian and diabetic-friendly choices upon request, and people gather together for group dining but the staff can serve meals in private settings for families if needed. Housekeeping, laundry, kitchenettes, safety features, Wi-Fi, cable TV, high-speed internet, private phones, guest parking, and an emergency call system make life easier and help people stay in touch, whether reading a complimentary newspaper, enjoying local sports on TV, or talking to family.
Paradise Island Adult Family offers both long-term and short-term respite stays, welcomes independent and assisted living residents, and is set up for memory care, including programming for dementia and Alzheimer's, with extra attention for people who need supervision or who have high behavior support needs. The place has open visiting hours from 9am to 8pm, transportation is available at cost, and it's near public transit, which can help families and friends visit, and keeps people from feeling isolated.
The facility mainly fits older adults who want a home-like setting with attentive, compassionate staff and an approach that values comfort, dignity, and individual rights, and it seems suited especially for people with higher care needs or who benefit from a smaller, nurturing environment that doesn't feel institutional.
