St. Anthony's Home for Seniors, LLC sits on 211 North Bowdish Road in Spokane Valley and is a small, homelike facility with only six beds, so everybody gets to know each other pretty well, and seniors can get the help they need in a setting that doesn't feel crowded or overwhelming, and the staff works hard to keep things personal and comfortable. The building's set up with large private rooms, some with private bathrooms, and you can choose between private, semi-private, or couple's rooms, with beds from Northwest Bedding and individualized closets for storage. Seniors living here can use open living areas, enjoy community events, and join outdoor and indoor activities as they like, with a reading room, TV time on a 42" flat screen, and common areas where everyone gathers, and there's always something planned like music, crafts, gardening, or holiday celebrations to keep things lively, whether it's in the yard, recreation rooms, or out for community activities.
The home focuses on several care options for seniors, such as assisted living, nursing home-level support, independent living, and memory care for folks with dementia or Alzheimer's, and they build the place to reduce confusion and keep people from wandering. They also offer hospice care and respite or short-term stays in case family caregivers need a break. Every day, residents get three homemade meals, and there are vegetarian options; staff can adjust meals for diabetes or high blood pressure if a doctor says so. Residents get help with bathing, bathroom needs, grooming, and dressing, and the staff helps with medication, bed mobility, and moving from bed to chair, and there are nurses available and 24-hour awake personnel, plus a nurse on call if needs come up suddenly.
