Woodland by Bonaventure sits off a quiet road in Lacey, Washington, surrounded by tall green trees and a calm setting that makes shady walks and outdoor time easy and comfortable, and it doesn't try to be fancy, it just feels nice and peaceful. Residents can choose from assisted living, independent living, or memory care, so whether someone needs a little help with daily things, wants a social home without the yardwork, or needs a safe space for memory support, there are choices, and all of them come with staff available day and night. The community has private and shared suites in different sizes, like studios, one-bedroom, and two-bedroom apartments, and some have full kitchens, big closets, their own balconies or patios, lots of natural light, and even a wall safe, which is a nice touch for keeping things secure, and every unit has individually controlled heating and cooling.
Assisted living residents get bathing, dressing, and medicine help as needed, plus weekly housekeeping, linen service, and home-cooked meals served in a dining room that feels welcoming for sitting with friends or family, and there's also a private dining room for special visits. Everybody gets a wireless emergency call system, so help is always close by. Memory care is set up to give extra safety and support for those with Alzheimer's or other kinds of dementia, and on-site trained aides help out as needed.
Meals are prepared every day with plenty of variety and snacks, and there are always vegetarian options. For people who like staying active, Woodland has an activities calendar with things going on every day of the week, including bingo, arts and crafts, exercise classes in the fitness center with treadmills and ellipticals, gardening activities, and trips outside the community, so there's something for most folks. There's also a whirlpool room, a cozy fireplace for reading or chatting, a library, TV and theater rooms, game rooms with billiards and shuffleboard, and even a hobby and garden center, which can be good for quiet hobbies or just relaxing. There's a salon and barbershop on site, so hair care and grooming are easy, and the community keeps things easy with free Wi-Fi everywhere, a business center for computer and printer needs, and private mailboxes.
Getting around is handled with both complimentary and paid transportation, and there's parking for residents too, so folks can come and go if they want or need to get to appointments. Residents who need extra care for a short time can use respite or hospice services. Indoors and outdoors, the grounds are landscaped, with patios, lawns, sitting areas, walking paths, and balconies to enjoy Lacey's green spaces. Safety is important, so secured entrances and handicap-accessible bathrooms and showers come standard, and there are both indoor lounges and outdoor common spaces, so people can choose how they want to spend their day.
Licensed and reviewed by Washington State's Department of Social and Health Services, Woodland by Bonaventure doesn't try to be fancy, but it's reliable, well-kept, and designed for older adults who want comfort, safety, and good company in a pretty Northwest setting.
