Bridle Manor AFH sits in a quiet part of Kirkland, Washington, close to Bridle Trails State Park, and only has six private rooms, which means each resident gets lots of attention and it never feels crowded, and with a license from Washington (license number 731500), families know it's a real adult family home that follows the rules for safety and care. People who live here can pick from private, semi-private, or studio apartments, and they can even ask to have their rooms set up with custom furnishings so things feel more like home, and they can request cable TV or a phone if they want it. The staff stays on-site all day and all night, offering help with dressing, moving around, eating-including spoon-feeding when it's needed-and using the bathroom, and when someone needs more special help, such as with memory care or Parkinson's disease, they've got plans to give each person what they need, and there's a doctor who comes to see the residents.
Meals are home-cooked daily, served in a big dining area, and the kitchen team is ready to make changes for special diets, offering puree diets and a separate menu if someone's got dietary needs, plus they've got treats and special menus on holidays and birthdays. The place is pet-friendly, so pets are welcome if that helps someone feel at home, and there's a courtyard and garden space where residents can relax or enjoy the outdoors, which is nice for a smaller setting. Activities happen every day, with arts and crafts, movie nights, reading areas, game rooms, and get-togethers with family and visitors during set visiting hours from 9 in the morning to 8 at night, and the staff plans special birthday parties and other events. The home has HD flat screen TVs, a therapy room, a shared kitchen, and even a snack shop for those who want a little bite between meals.
Bridle Manor AFH offers laundry every week, cleaning and housekeeping, including help with the bathrooms, and cares for the grounds to keep things tidy and peaceful, and they handle apartment maintenance so no one has to worry about fixing things. The staff provides help with getting around the building, escorts residents when needed, takes care of health checks, and customizes care plans for each new resident. There are in-room pull cords for emergencies, and the building has 24/7 security to keep everyone safe. Residents get transportation for group activities or appointments, along with private rides if needed, and there's parking for those who drive or have visitors. They also offer relocation help, for those moving in from another home, and accommodate both long-term living and recovery care after surgery if that's needed. People can join in on preventive health screenings, use speech and occupational therapy services, and enjoy the simple comforts that a small, licensed Adult Family Home brings to day-to-day living in Kirkland.
