Solstice Senior Living at Kennewick is a three-story senior community that has 120 roomy apartments, with floor plans including studios, one-bedrooms, and two-bedrooms ranging from 404 to 975 square feet. The place sits in a gentle setting near a river, with green landscaping, a pond, patios, and walking paths, so things feel peaceful and there's always a spot to catch some sun or look at the mountains. Residents can choose from fully private units featuring wall-to-wall carpeting, large private bathrooms, kitchenettes, Wi-Fi, and cable TV. The community supports several types of care, like independent living, assisted living, memory care, respite care, continuing care, nursing home services, home care, and care homes, and folks can have care plans adjusted to fit what they need, big or small.
The campus is close to Kadlec, Trios, and Lourdes hospitals, along with pharmacies, restaurants, and stores, so daily needs and appointments stay within reach. There are common areas for all sorts of activities, like billiards in the lounge, games or movie time in the media rooms, reading in the library, or getting a trim at the beauty and hair salon. Plenty of activities are on offer, from Tai Chi and stretching classes to Pinochle, religious services, and wine tastings, all listed on the regular activity calendar. Programs such as "Vibrant Life®" and "Path to Wellness" bring options for arts, social events, off-site outings, and wellness checks, and these help folks keep busy and active, with many awards like Best Activities in Senior Living underlining their reputation.
On-site managers and caregivers, along with a full-time administrative staff, help keep the community safe and provide support around the clock, creating a caring, home-like atmosphere. Residents are allowed cats or dogs, but with some restrictions, and there's always guest parking for family or friends coming by. Those needing extra help can use outside home-care services for medication reminders or personal care, thanks to partnerships with local agencies, and transportation is arranged for outings and appointments. Housekeeping, laundry, linen service, and maintenance are all handled by the staff, giving residents more free time. Restaurant-style dining offers chef-prepared, dietitian-approved meals in a community dining room, with alternative choices at each meal, or private dining rooms for special times with family or friends.
Physical and occupational therapy can be arranged, as can transportation and shopping trips through scheduled group outings. The building has handicap-accessible features. Residents get to enjoy garden spaces and outdoor courtyards, some with walking trails, while a computer room, TV areas, and entertainment venues bring everyone together inside. Payment is flexible, allowing for checks or credit cards, and the rent can be all-inclusive or split with care fees. Solstice Senior Living at Kennewick aims to give seniors a good balance of privacy, support, and social activity, all within a friendly and well-kept environment.
