Amani Home AFH sits in a quiet, tree-lined Bellevue neighborhood at 2522 156th Ave SE. This Adult Family Home is licensed for 6 beds and offers both private and semi-private rooms, bright and spacious, with private suites and one-bedroom options, so folks can have a good rest and plenty of privacy. They've got 24-hour care from skilled, compassionate caregivers-including licensed nurses and EMTs-and a live-in provider who's always around. The care covers daily needs, from bathing and dressing to incontinence care and help moving in or out of bed, and there's support for residents with dementia, Alzheimer's, diabetes, mental health needs, development disabilities, or even total care for residents who can't move on their own.
Each person gets an individualized care plan, which means the team listens to residents and their families, checks on health regularly, and keeps everyone in the loop. They monitor and give out medicines, check blood sugar for diabetics, help with spoon feeding if someone needs it, and can even provide wound care, blood thinner INR checks, and therapy visits for physical, speech, or occupational needs. Hospice and respite care are available too, so families can get support when times are tough or just need a break.
Amani Home AFH prepares home-cooked meals including special diets for diabetes and other medical needs, with input from a registered dietitian. Residents eat together and enjoy private dining when they want, and there's help at mealtime for those who need it. The environment stays relaxed and homelike, with visiting pets welcome, gardens, patios for fresh air, and nature walks. Folks can join in a range of activities-bingo, bible study, puzzles, movie nights, games, exercise classes, birthday parties, birdwatching, tea time, gardening, and more-plus live music, piano recitals, or even cooking therapy. There's a chapel for services and places to sit quietly if needed.
The house is secure, with alarm systems, locked exits, and an emergency call button, all surrounded by a safe and well-connected neighborhood close to a bus line. It's wheelchair and walker accessible, with parking for family, and has conveniences like air conditioning, cable TV with smart remotes, high speed Internet, laundry, housekeeping, and on-site hair and manicure services. There's a little café, and guests get newspapers for a bit of routine comfort. Staff help set up transportation to appointments and offer regular health checkups. Family is seen as part of the care team, and everyone works together to make sure residents feel respected and safe.
Amani Home AFH follows state rules for adult family homes in King County and doesn't take Medicare unless certified. It brings a simple, neighborly feeling, with professional support and attention to the needs of seniors, including those with dementia, chronic conditions, or disabilities. The goal is to help folks live as well as possible, every day, with dignity and genuine care.
