Riverside Place Memory Care sits in Hoquiam, Washington, and offers a secure and homelike place for seniors dealing with dementia, Alzheimer's, and other memory conditions, and the building itself is designed for people with these needs, providing round-the-clock supervision with a full-time nurse, compassionate staff, and a 24-hour emergency call system throughout apartments, restrooms, and common areas, so safety's always kept in mind, and the doors around the community help folks not wander off by accident since wandering's common for memory loss patients. This place has 38 licensed beds for people in memory care, keeping the occupancy right under half, and the rating sits at 4.8 out of 16 reviews, which tells you people seem pretty happy with it. You'll find daily activities, life enrichment programs, gentle exercise classes, music therapy, special group therapy for reminiscing, arts and crafts, games, and regular outings-sometimes to restaurants or the casino-with family night, movie nights, and even live entertainment mixed in, so residents get social time and some fun along with support for their mind and spirits. Folks with pets are welcome, which matters to a lot of people, and the grounds boast garden spots, walking paths, and cozy common spaces with fireplaces, movies, and areas for residents to relax, visit with friends, or take up hobbies if they want to.
The dining room's open and bright, serving three dietitian-approved meals a day, all with alternate entries for those with specific tastes or needs, including kosher and vegetarian options, and snacks are up for grabs anytime, so people can eat what suits them. Apartments come with bathrooms, connections for cable and phone, and house features sprinkled with smoke detectors and fire sprinklers for safety. There's a licensed beautician in the on-site salon and a barber to keep residents looking tidy, and both the community library and well-kept outdoor spaces offer quiet places to read or simply be outdoors.
Support goes beyond simple care, too, since staff handle medication management, diabetic care, incontinence service, non-ambulatory help, and transportation for out-of-community trips when those come up. Nurses skilled in dementia and memory care work with each resident's needs, developing tailored care plans that get regular updates, plus Resident Care Partners match specifically to residents, so people aren't treated as one-size-fits-all. Housekeeping and laundry happen weekly. The atmosphere feels focused on making it a home above all else, with family support services and ways for relatives to get involved or find resources. Riverside Place Memory Care offers respite stays, so caregivers get relief when needed, and the team always tries to keep people as independent as possible while monitoring for safety. The management falls to Caring Places Management, which oversees several types of care, so if someone needs Assisted Living, Home Care, Adult Day Services, Long-Term Care, Home Health, or Hospice, support can shift as things change. Residents at Riverside Place can expect thoughtful, personal care focused on mind, body, and spirit, aimed at giving both them and their families some peace of mind and a sense of belonging.
