Alderwood Elderly Home Care Adult Family Home

Alderwood Elderly Home Care Adult Family Home sits in Lynnwood, WA, with a quiet neighborhood setting that lets older adults feel at home while getting help when they need it, and with only six licensed beds, residents get more attention from trained and caring staff around the clock. The home specializes in memory care for seniors with Alzheimer's disease or other kinds of dementia, and it's set up to make sure residents stay safe and don't get lost or confused, with nurses on staff to check in on health needs and trained caregiving staff who help with taking medicines, bathing, getting dressed, and moving about when needed, so those who have trouble with walking or standing can feel safe and comfortable. Alderwood offers long-term care and assistance with daily tasks, and residents get their own care plans that are changed as needed, plus transportation to doctor visits so no one has to worry about how to get to appointments. There are also meal planners and chefs who prepare daily meals and snacks, with choices to fit special diets like for those with diabetes or kidney problems, and staff help with housecleaning, laundry, and general safety so the place stays tidy and cozy. Social activities and companionship are a regular part of life here because being with others and staying busy can make the days happier, and there's an easy-going feel in the rooms, with Wi-Fi so families can stay in touch and accessible features so those with wheelchairs or walkers can get around. Alderwood is surveyed by the Department of Aging and other local groups to make sure it follows all the rules for care, and its adult family home license is kept current and checked twice a year so families know everything's up to standard. Medicare isn't taken unless the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services say so, and prices aren't posted publicly, but the focus is on providing a homelike place for seniors over 50 who want some independence yet still need a bit of extra help, with support available all day and night. Visiting hours run from 9:00am to 8:00pm, and staff try to give everybody personal attention whether a resident needs a gentle reminder to take medicine or more hands-on daily help, and hospice care is available for those facing serious health issues in the later parts of life. The atmosphere is less like a nursing home and more like a family home, giving peace of mind to residents and their families, along with a safe, comfortable place to call home.
