Green Gables AFH sits in the North Rose Hill neighborhood of Redmond, Washington, and has a small, homelike setting with 6 to 8 licensed beds for seniors. The place gives assisted living and memory care, plus board and care services, and respite care for short-term stays, and all of that is in a home that's RN-owned and operated, with an RN living on site, so there's always a nurse close by for emergencies. Residents get help with daily living such as dressing, bathing, moving around, incontinence care, medication management, feeding by spoon, and other personal care. The staff offer Alzheimer's and dementia care with rooms and outdoor spaces laid out to prevent wandering and lessen confusion, and they're able to manage high-acuity medical issues, diabetic care, wound care, incontinence, and non-ambulatory care, so that's a comfort to families. There's support for developmental disabilities and mental health needs too, so different seniors can get the help they need.
The house is at 13322 NE 115th Ct., in a quiet spot near hospitals and bus routes, and several apartments are available, including studios, private and semi-private rooms, and single-bedrooms-all with easy-to-read menus, safety measures, emergency call systems, and private telephones. Residents can bring a cat or dog, with some rules, and rooms have wheelchair accessible showers. There's around-the-clock security, an emergency response system, and locked or fenced gardens for safety, so folks who like to walk among trees or sit on the porch can do so safely. Staff organize activities like bingo, movies, arts and crafts, garden walks, story time, musical programs, travel outings, birthday parties, and holiday celebrations. Residents can join daily fitness classes, use a fitness room, have fun in a movie room, read in the library, use the computer area, go to a chapel, or just enjoy garden, mountain, or water views from the property.
Green Gables AFH serves meals every day, and there are chef-prepared menu choices to fit various diets, including for special occasions, birthdays, kosher meals, and health concerns, and people can expect help with feeding and weight management if needed. There are wellness visits and doctor appointments, medication management, and health checks by a licensed nurse, with a podiatrist coming in as well. For beauty and self-care, there's a salon and barbershop. The home has a backup generator, internet access, and TVs, plus magazines and newspapers to read. Family and residents can schedule tours with a senior living advisor, and there's help with moving in if needed. Transportation is available both for appointments and group outings, with resident parking on site.
The staff is made up of trained care workers who are available 24/7, and services are provided in both English and Romanian. The home aims for a peaceful, simple way of living, and the rules don't allow smoking inside. Visits from family and friends usually happen from 9 am till 8 pm. Some respite or short-term stays are possible. Green Gables AFH suits seniors who need ongoing support and like being in a small, familiar environment where staff get to know everyone.
