Edgewood Castle Hills sits near Pierce Park in northwest Boise, offering a mix of senior living options like independent living, assisted living, memory care, skilled nursing, and even adult day services and short-term stays, and the building goes back to 1994 with an addition from 2002, so you have both history and some newer updates there. Residents can choose from private apartments or units-there are 55 beds in the assisted living area and 58 apartments set on one floor for easy access-surrounded by two acres of landscaped grounds, walking trails, and gardens that make it nice to take a stroll or just sit outdoors. The place takes care to support people who need help with daily tasks like dressing or bathing, as well as medication management, and always has staff around the clock, with 24-hour nurse coverage, an emergency pendant system, and regular nursing consultations so folks can feel secure. Folks have access to on-site home health, therapy, and hospice services, thanks to Edgewood's CaringEdge and All Care divisions, and the memory care area has an open floor plan with calming decor, personal touches, and programs to help adults with Alzheimer's or dementia, along with ongoing staff training to give careful attention.
If someone wants to keep busy, there's quite a list of scheduled daily activities and regular community-sponsored events like game nights in the card room, movies in the theater, worship services in the chapel, trips out into the community thanks to scheduled transportation, or just reading in the library and visiting the salon and barber shop-plus, the facility encourages residents to join in with chores like meal prep and cleanup, which some say helps everyone feel engaged and part of things. Meals are served three times a day with snacks provided, and there's help with laundry and housekeeping, so those things are off people's minds. Each room has emergency call systems, private bathrooms, and options for extra amenities, and residents who want support with physical, occupational, or speech therapy can get it on site. The property offers a virtual tour feature with audio for those who want to see the place without visiting, and folks can expect building improvements, new menus, extra activities, and a friendly staff with a good reputation for being helpful and kind. Edgewood Castle Hills aims to provide both independence and care as needed, making it possible for residents to enjoy their hobbies, social groups, and quiet moments with a sense of security and comfort.
