Tri-Cities Retirement Inn

Tri-Cities Retirement Inn in Pasco offers a range of living options, so you'll find independent living, assisted living, and a secure memory care neighborhood for Alzheimer's and dementia residents all under one roof, and the place is Medicaid-certified, keeping it more affordable for many families down the road, which is something people worry about a lot these days. The property sits in a private, peaceful spot, the community itself feels warm and cozy, and the staff is friendly and fully trained, with licenses from the state and real experience in elder care, medication administration, and dementia care, which is a relief for people who need just a bit of help or those who need ongoing supervision. You'll see semi-private apartments and studios, some private and some for companions, plus a few pet-friendly floor plans if somebody can't imagine living without a dog or cat, which is nice because not every place allows pets, but here, some plans do. Residents use both indoor and outdoor common areas, like lounges and landscaped patios and gardens, and if you just want to watch TV with friends, visit with family, or walk the grounds, you've got space for that, and the grounds are secured, especially for memory care, with safety in mind. Residents can join life enrichment activities, educational programs, devotional services both onsite and offsite, and regular group outings, all meant to help folks keep their minds sharp, stay connected, and develop real friendships, which helps a lot with loneliness. The schedule includes physical, speech, and occupational therapy services on-site, plus regular physician visits; diabetic care is available, especially for those who need insulin, and care plans are individualized, so people get their personal needs addressed, including help with bathing, dressing, meals, cleaning, laundry, and medication, which always takes a load off the family's mind. There's a beautician onsite, and the community's meals are served with focus on nutrition and reliable ingredients, which helps people feel their best. For those who want activity, there are planned social events and offsite trips, and if you want quiet, you can spend time in the outdoor garden or read in one of the lounges. Tri-Cities Retirement Inn has 138 licensed beds, and while not as big as some places, it still feels lively. The owners, Greenlake Senior Living, oversee the day-to-day and keep the place focused on elder needs, making sure the staff's trained and available. With its all-inclusive care, clear Medicaid support, structured programs, and a warm, supportive environment, the community keeps life simple, safe, and comfortable for seniors in different stages, whether somebody just wants freedom from housework or needs more hands-on help with memory loss or medical tasks.
