Blue Ridge AFH LLC sits on a quiet dead-end street in Seattle with nice views of Puget Sound and the Olympic Mountains, providing a calm spot for older people who want both care and comfort, and the place doesn't have any stairs since everything is on one level across 2,650 square feet, so folks with walkers or wheelchairs can get around easily, which is pretty important for those who are worried about falling or just like to walk about without trouble. The house has a paved walkway around the yard, a big covered deck looking over the water, and a patio on the garden side, where grapes, berries, and vegetables grow alongside flowers, and there's a courtyard, a water fountain, benches, and places to sit, so people can spend time outdoors or just enjoy family visits.
There are six bedrooms at Blue Ridge AFH LLC, each with its own bathroom and walk-in shower, some set up with curb-less entry for easier rehab or guest use, and all have wall-mounted flat screen TVs with cable, motorized adjustable beds, and individual heaters. Some rooms are big enough for couples who want to stay together, and there are both furnished and unfurnished room options available. Residents can use a quiet library stocked with large-print books and audiobooks or listen to music from a whole mix of old records, CDs, and tapes, and there's a fireplace for sitting near with friends or family. There's also a sun deck for watching ferries, boats, or birds-binoculars and tripods even let you get a closer look, and from inside, there's an indoor sun area for year-round light.
Staff at Blue Ridge AFH LLC give 24-hour personal care with two caregivers during the day and awake night staff, which translates to more attention for each resident, especially since the house only has room for up to eight people, and they know how to help people living with memory loss or dementia, those with mental health issues, or folks with developmental disabilities. They handle things like housework, laundry, bathing help, dressing, medication reminders, diabetic care and high-acuity needs, and can help non-ambulatory residents move about. A visiting home doctor comes in as needed, and there's oversight from a Nursing Home Administrator, with the home officially licensed and registered with DSHS and run under Tadique, Amante Fernando.
Meals use fruits and vegetables from the garden when possible and are tailored to what each person needs for their own diets, served in a group setting, and snacks are included, too. All costs, even things like extra care or help, are covered in a flat monthly rate, so families aren't surprised by extra fees. Extra services cover housekeeping, transportation assistance, and delivery for medical supplies; there are options for physical therapy, a massage chair for comfort, and lots of games and puzzles.
The home is fire-safe with proper sprinklers, and there's lots of parking for visitors, who are free to come by between 9:00 am and 8:00 pm. The small group setting means more one-on-one care, and the company is a member of AFHC with a nursing license and a national provider identifier. All of this makes Blue Ridge AFH LLC an option for adults needing different levels of support who want to stay in a home-like place near services, with kind staff and chances to be outside or with family.
