Areside Afh

Areside AFH is an adult family home in Lynnwood, WA, that serves seniors in Snohomish County with care and personal attention in a small, home-like setting where staff know everyone's name and families come and go during visiting hours from 9am to 8pm, and you'll see six private bedrooms, each with a private bath and wheelchair-accessible shower, in a private house that welcomes only a handful of residents, so people get care that fits their needs, from light to total care, including high-acuity, memory care, and even end-of-life comfort if that's needed, with round-the-clock caregivers and licensed nurses who help with daily activities, medication management, wounds, diabetic care, and more serious needs like ventilators, tracheostomies, and tube feeding, and who can work with behavior or mobility concerns, as well as people living with Alzheimer's, dementia, or mental health challenges. The owners are nurses and husband-and-wife caregiver teams, including an RN and EMT, and there's a nurse on call 24/7, so if anything urgent happens, someone's ready to help right away, and home health providers like therapists, nurses, social workers, and dietitians stop by to give extra support for residents who need therapy or special diets, and the pharmacy keeps a careful watch on medication with an electronic records system to help avoid mistakes. Residents stay busy with activities planned by a vibrant life coordinator-a little like an activity director-from Monday to Friday, with chances for painting, crafts, games, baking, exercise, movie nights, holiday parties, gardening, story time, Bible study, singing, and even lakeside walks when the weather's nice, and there are secure indoor and outdoor areas, so people with memory loss can move around safely without risk of wandering off, since there are security systems, locked exits, and technology like bracelets that alert staff if someone tries to leave. Meals are served every day with care for different diets, including kosher and vegetarian options, and there's private dining for family visits, plus activity rooms, fenced walking paths, patios, cozy common areas indoors, and private patios for those who ask, with high-speed guest wifi, private phones, and Xfinity cable with smart remotes, so folks can stay in touch or relax with their favorite shows. Staff help with laundry, housekeeping, transportation to doctor's visits, and outings for fun, and there's respite care if a family just needs a short stay or help while they're away, and the home is wheelchair accessible with parking for residents' cars, so people can age in place and keep their routines as long as they wish. The facility's reviewed and licensed by the Washington State Department of Social and Human Services, and all care plans are personalized, adjusting as folks' needs change, and payment options and floor plans are available if you ask for them. This smaller, family-style home gives seniors a way to keep some independence but always have a friendly, trained hand nearby.
