Chinook Place Memory Care and Assisted Living sits on a landscaped property with walking paths, a gazebo, and outdoor gardens, so residents can enjoy the fresh air and scenery. The community is a daylight ranch-style building with both upper and lower levels, offering 30 apartments-there are 13 for assisted living, with seven one-bedroom and six studio options, and 17 studio apartments in the secure memory care area with shared bathrooms, all wired for phone and cable and fitted with emergency call devices. Residents can live in a safe and comfortable environment, whether they need memory care or assisted living, with staff on hand 24 hours a day, including licensed nurses, med aides, caregivers, and a supportive care team.
There's a focus on supporting residents' health, comfort, and well-being, so the facility provides personal care plans that staff update based on each person's needs and daily routines. Services are tailored for those with memory loss, like Alzheimer's or dementia, and the building's design keeps safety and ease of movement in mind, especially in memory care. Residents can take part in meaningful activities at Life Skill Stations-spending time in a mock nursery, secretary's office, or using a workbench, which can help with a sense of purpose and freedom.
Meals come three times a day, all dietitian-approved, and there are always snacks on hand if someone's hungry between meals. The open dining room offers plenty of natural light and residents get alternate entrée choices, plus space to socialize. For those needing help with specific care, available services include diabetic care, medication assistance, incontinence care, non-ambulatory care, and memory care, as well as and transport for community outings.
Residents can spend time in cozy common areas like living rooms with fireplaces, lounges with TVs and seating, restrooms in shared or private spaces, and a salon with a licensed beautician. There are non-pay telephones, Wi-Fi and high-speed internet, common areas wired for cable, smoke detectors, fire sprinklers, and other safety features, so seniors and visiting loved ones can feel secure. Staff also help with weekly housekeeping, laundry-including a non-pay laundry room-and offer respite services.
Life at Chinook Place includes an active mix of enrichment programs, Bingo, music, entertainers, trips into the wider community, and other activities meant for social connection and fun. The community listens to feedback, taking food requests and encouraging residents to engage and share ideas. Those who want pets nearby, Wi-Fi, parking, or transportation to appointments can find those too.
Chinook Place strives to create a warm, caring space where people feel at home, and the professional staff focus on kindness and personal attention, trying to support independence while being there when someone needs help, whether it's with daily living, cognitive support, or staying connected to others through activities and shared spaces.
