Kelly Adult Family Home

Kelly Adult Family Home sits in a quiet spot near Olympia, Washington, nestled among grass-covered countryside and picket fences, so folks who want a calm, rural atmosphere will find it here, and the place isn't too big, which means each resident gets individual attention instead of feeling lost in the crowd. The home is registered with the Department of Social and Health Services, and the staff includes experienced, friendly caregivers and licensed nurses on-site all the time, with a dedicated team around day and night to help with things like meals, bathing, grooming, medication, and moving around, even for those who need lots of help or special equipment for transfers. The adult family home offers assisted living and memory care for people with Alzheimer's or dementia, and has a separate, secure memory care building, so residents who might wander can stay safe thanks to the alarms and computerized wander alert bracelets, and families don't need to worry about loved ones getting lost. Staff can handle diabetes care, blood sugar checks, and insulin injections, and they also help residents manage things like behavioral problems, mental health needs, and even hospice. Residents get three meals a day, and the kitchen can handle special diets like kosher or vegetarian food, with housekeeping and laundry taken care of, and there's always lots to do with a full calendar of social, educational, and recreational activities, both onsite and out in the community, with transportation for appointments and shopping. The home provides therapy services and psychiatric care, and works out personalized care plans for each person, so folks who want to stay as their health changes can usually keep living there without having to move. Private rooms and baths are available, and the common areas inside and out feel pleasant and homelike, with plenty of places to relax and meet with other residents or visiting family between 9:00 in the morning and 8:00 at night. The smaller size makes Kelly Adult Family Home a good choice for people who want a more personal kind of care in a peaceful setting, and while there's no list of prices published, customer reviews rate the home highly, so families looking for a place that feels familiar and not like a big institution will likely appreciate what they find.
