Loving Hands Adult Family Home, located at 7504 W Chestnut Ave in Yakima, Washington, is a regulated care home run under the rules of Washington's Department of Social Services and has only six licensed beds, which means everyone gets to know each other and things feel home-like and close. Residents get help with showering, dressing, bathroom use, washing, grooming, and medication, and the staff can help folks with daily tasks like meal preparation, cleaning, and mobility, plus they provide special meal plans if someone's got medical needs. There're studio, single-room, and two-bedroom options, and each room has housekeeping and laundry, cable TV, and wheelchair accessible showers for anyone who needs them. There's always someone on call-a doctor, nurse, or dentist-and the home can give diabetic care, incontinence care, physical and occupational therapy, and speech therapy if needed, as well as memory care for those living with dementia or Alzheimer's.
People living at Loving Hands can bring a cat or dog if they're within the weight limits. They get to enjoy outdoor and indoor common areas, garden spaces, a book room, and amenities like a dining room, jacuzzi, sauna, and health room. The property has wifi, a fitness center, safety features like sprinkler systems, and both maintenance and guest parking. There's a barber and parlor onsite plus a mobile barber or hairdresser who visits. For fun or relaxation, folks can join community night events, planned activities, music therapy, pet therapy, board games, and different social or educational programs almost every day, and sometimes there's offsite trips or devotional services to meet spiritual needs. Residents get rides for appointments, errands, or faith-based gatherings, either free or for a cost, depending on where they're headed.
This place fits people who can move on their own but need extra hands with daily things and who want to live somewhere that feels like a real house, not a big building. People who need high acuity care, respite care, or hospice support can receive those services here, too, and the staff there focuses on keeping everyone safe, cared for, and comfortable. Men and women are welcome, though some areas are set aside just for each. Families can visit, pets can live there with their owners, and the kitchen serves up home-cooked meals tailored for individual needs, always aiming to keep things friendly and warm for seniors living there.
