Providence Mount St. Vincent is a senior living community where more than 400 adults live, getting care that fits their needs, whether it's help with simple daily activities or 24-hour care for people with greater needs, and there are options for assisted living, independent living for those who are still active, rehab, skilled nursing, and memory care for those with dementia or Alzheimer's. They follow a person-centered care approach, which means workers look at what each resident wants and needs, making sure they feel respected, safe, and comfortable, and they adapt care as needs change over time so people get the right support, and residents often get to choose their daily routines and are encouraged to stay as independent as possible.
At Providence Heritage House, residents can enjoy panoramic views of Elliott Bay and the Olympic Mountains, while the apartments give privacy along with nursing services and a Wellness Center offering health and activity programs. There's plenty to do with activities, therapy sessions, and programs like Wonderful Life Programming or intergenerational events that include people from different age groups, aiming to keep everyone socially and spiritually active, and the place is known for being friendly and busy with events like Black Tie Bingo.
Meals come with many choices, and there's international cuisine, dining at any time, special diets for different health conditions, and pet-friendly areas so people can have their animals if that's important to them. Facilities are wheelchair accessible, have high-speed internet, and comfortable dining and outdoor spaces, and there are programs for memory care that help prevent wandering and confusion, which is important for those who have memory loss.
Medical services are broad, so besides general nursing care, there are visits from podiatry, dentistry, lab, vision, pharmacy, and hearing services, and there's help for people with diabetes, incontinence, mobility problems, or other serious health issues. Seniors who stay at home can get help from trained aides, and outpatient and virtual medical services are available along with support for billing and care coordination with tools like the MyChart portal and the Providence App.
The community offers both assisted living and skilled nursing beds, with 122 assisted living beds and 207 skilled nursing beds, which lets them adjust to many kinds of needs, and there are memory care units designed to keep residents safe. Providence Mount St. Vincent includes amenities and programs to make life enjoyable, and its support comes from donations, in-kind gifts, and fundraising, managed by the Providence Mount St. Vincent Foundation. They celebrate their long history, with Centennial Anniversaries and friendly traditions, and they've won awards for their meals, activities, and the positive environment residents enjoy. There's a board of directors, dedicated staff, and many different ways to give and support their mission, with care plans that can change along with the residents' health and wishes, all within a safe, welcoming place that tries to give everyone a good quality of life.
