Alder House Assisted Living Facility sits about 21.7 miles outside of Aberdeen, Washington, among quiet surroundings and country air, and the place holds 37 beds in a medium-sized community where care is the focus, and the staff has a way of running things that puts safety and comfort first for every resident, people say. The staff stays awake all night, and nurses are there to help whenever needed, so if someone needs help with medications, diabetes care, or just getting up and down, there's help close by. The building has accessible features like ramps, mobility help, and secured outdoor grounds, making it easier and safer for seniors, including those needing memory care or Alzheimer's care, and even though they plan to do more memory care in the future, they already welcome those needing a bit of extra support.
Studio rooms come in different layouts so residents can pick what fits best for them, and housekeeping keeps things clean while staff helps with laundry and keeping up apartment units. There's a library and reading area for quiet time, and common rooms and a dining hall for sharing meals or joining friends, since meal services are included and can be pureed if swallowing is tough, which happens sometimes as folks get older. The kitchen prepares nutritious food, and the community dining hall is a place where people meet three times a day to eat and visit.
Alder House offers plenty of choices when it comes to daily living support, whether it's bathing, continence care, or just getting dressed. There are occupational and speech therapy services, plus regular visits from physicians who do health checks. Fitness classes and massage therapy help people stay stronger, and there's always a variety of recreational activities, including outings, wellness programs, social events, and devotional activities if someone's interested, since keeping busy and having options helps people feel less alone. Pets are allowed, which makes some residents happy, and staff work with personalized care plans to meet each person's needs.
The facility welcomes families and maintains a warm, supportive atmosphere, with trained workers who know how to care for older adults. Alder House supports independence where possible, but doesn't leave anyone struggling to manage alone, and safety always comes high on the list, especially with secure spaces and regular health monitoring. The license is Washington #1072, and the facility's scored by reviews from the community, so new families can check what others have experienced. They support local organizations, and being a family-owned place keeps the environment familiar and friendly. Residents can go outside on secure decks, join in on-site and off-site activities, and make use of shared spaces made just for seniors' comfort, with most things designed to make life at Alder House steady, comfortable, and connected to the community around it.
