Affable Caring operates as an Adult Family Home in Kent, Washington, with 6 licensed beds for seniors and adults needing care, and it accepts Medicaid. The home's owned by Alimamy Kamara, who leads a staff that includes mental health professionals, registered nurses, nurse practitioners, certified nursing assistants, a certified exercise physiologist, and a mix of support staff, all focused on 24-hour care and well-being. Residents at Affable Caring receive help with daily living-personal care, laundry, housekeeping, and meal prep-with meals including vegetarian and kosher options, and the home supplies both private and semi-private rooms, using floor-to-ceiling curtains for privacy in shared spaces. The place has wheelchair accessible bathrooms, showers, and ramps, full kitchens for cooking, and smart TVs with plenty of channels, including Chinese, Spanish, Russian, local sports, and Filipino programs, plus high-speed Wi-Fi and emergency call systems in rooms.
Affable Caring offers specialized care for dementia, Alzheimer's, mental health, developmental disabilities, traumatic brain injuries, diabetes (with blood sugar checks and insulin injections), stroke, and those needing high acuity or incontinence care, plus wound care, IV therapy, blood transfusions, and Central line/TPN management. There's a Memory Program for those with memory issues, and a purpose-built, secured memory care area with technology like bracelets and computerized alerts to help keep residents safe if they try to leave or wander. Staff stay on-site around the clock, equipped to assist with one- or two-person transfers, portable lifts, and behavioral concerns, and they can support residents who may be exit seekers or physically act out. On-site medical visits from doctors, podiatry, nursing teams, and therapy services like speech, physical, and occupational therapy take place as needed, and in-house dialysis is also available.
The home encourages both group and individual activities, with gardening, music, movies, bingo, fitness classes, range of motion exercises, pet therapy (with rules), guided outings, devotional services, cooking, and holiday events planned by an activity director and a Vibrant Life Coordinator. They support aging in place and respite stays, and provide both shopping and transportation services, including resident parking and rides to local amenities or appointments, along with being conveniently near bus lines and hospitals. Common spaces indoors and outside are secured and fenced for privacy, there's an activity room and a smoking area, and personal laundry and cleaning are done daily. Visiting hours run from 9:00 am to 8:00 pm, and families will find flexible care levels to help residents stay even if their needs increase. Training for caregivers includes mental health, dementia care, and required DSHS courses, both online and in-person, and there are jobs available like Home Care Aide (HCA) with continuing education. Dignity, privacy, and independence get top attention, and the facility's focus is always on safety, health, and peace of mind for both residents and families.
