Bonaventure of Puyallup sits at 14503 Meridian Ave E in Puyallup, WA, and is a newer, multistory building with warm colors and stone on the outside, and the whole place feels friendly and welcoming, with staff known for being helpful, joyful, and kind, which does add to a good atmosphere. The community covers independent living, assisted living, and memory care all on one campus, which means folks with different needs can all find support here, whether someone's wanting to stay as active as possible or needs more daily help. They've got suites in different sizes-including one-bedrooms, two-bedrooms, and layouts for memory care-plus private mailboxes, private dining rooms for family events, and cozy spots like a sitting area with a fireplace and a library for reading. Most living spaces have a full kitchen or kitchenette, individually controlled thermostats, and accessible bathrooms for comfort.
There's a 24-hour staff on hand, so residents can get help whenever it's needed with things like medication, bathing, getting dressed, or getting around safely-especially important with the wireless emergency call system in every suite. For those with memory issues like Alzheimer's or other kinds of dementia, the memory care wing aims to reduce confusion and prevent wandering, and the building as a whole is handicap accessible, making it easier for everyone to move around. Programs and activities run every day to keep folks engaged physically, mentally, and socially, and they offer wellness programs, gardening, outdoor activities, and a billiard room, too, if a game's the thing, along with exercise facilities for folks who want to keep their strength up, and an on-site salon for haircuts or grooming. The grounds are nicely landscaped and have outdoor patios, especially in the independent living areas, so people can get outside and enjoy some fresh air.
Dining is done restaurant-style, with chefs and planners making sure the meals use good ingredients and cover plenty of diets-there are private dining rooms for special gatherings, and snacks are always around, with three meals a day included. Weekly housekeeping and linen services are provided, and laundry's free to use whenever needed, and there's high-speed Wi-Fi throughout the property so everyone can keep up with friends, family, or the outside world in general. The community itself is right next to a local park and community center, so residents can easily join local events or just get out for a walk.
Transportation's available to get to appointments or shopping, though it's best to schedule ahead since it's not always guaranteed. Bonaventure Senior Living runs the whole community, making sure the focus stays on comfort, independence, safety, and adapting care as folks' needs change over time. There are 109 licensed beds here, and the facility is state-licensed and verified, so everything meets state guidelines. There's no hype or fanfare about being the best, but the place does offer a lot of amenities, a good set of services, and a warm spot to call home for those who want to keep their independence or need extra support.
