Cottages of Spokane sits at 6930 North Nevada Street and has four small, cozy cottages, each with up to 20 residents, so people get to know each other and feel at home. These single-story cottages each open to a large, secure courtyard filled with landscaped walkways, raised garden beds, and greenery, and the grounds have edible, non-toxic plants that an arborist chose to make sure everything's safe and pretty, plus there are heated sidewalks and patio heaters and misters so residents can enjoy the fresh air in every season. Each cottage has its own dining room, living room with fireplace, and kitchenettes, and there are private and shared rooms, with space for visitors to pull up a chair. The community is still finishing up construction with some fresh paint and new grass, but tours are available now so people can see how the spaces look, and it plans to open between mid-September and early October.
Cottages of Spokane provides assisted living, independent living, and memory care for seniors, and residents can get help with daily activities or choose more independent options if they want. In the memory care areas, there's a requirement that residents have a diagnosis of dementia or Alzheimer's, with nurses on site five days a week, continuous nurse oversight, and trained care staff always there. Services include scheduled activities tailored to each person, private rooms for comfort and safety, support with personal care or medical needs, and special programs to help with memory and quality of life. The community allows assistance animals, follows Fair Housing rules, and offers on-site health visits from specialists like dental, labs, or a nurse practitioner, so less travel is needed for routine care. Every resident has access to safe, open outdoor spaces, and there's a focus on keeping the environment calm and familiar so everyone feels secure. Each cottage connects to the secure courtyard area, letting people stroll, garden, and engage in activities outside. Cottages of Spokane is part of CarePartners Senior Living, which offers several community options across the region, all aiming for personal attention and tailored care to fit every resident's unique needs.
