Mini Oaks Adult Family Home sits in Lacey, Washington, and gives help to seniors and adults in a quiet spot near local bus lines and Tanglewilde. The home has four licensed beds, so each person gets more attention and care. Staff stays on site all the time, working as a team with nurses and doctors, and they try to make a family feel for everyone. The building is set up to feel like a real home, not a big institution, and the staff can care for folks with all levels of need, from those who just need help with chores to seniors who need full nursing care, memory care, or even hospice. There's special support for those with dementia, Alzheimer's, Parkinson's, stroke, diabetes, mental health needs, and even for people who are bed-bound or use a wheelchair.
Mini Oaks offers daily help like meal preparation, medication management, laundry, housekeeping, and bathing. Every room comes with cable TV and safety features, plus private baths and wheelchair-accessible showers or tubs. Residents can bring small pets or have pets visit. Meals cover a range of diets-vegetarian, kosher, diabetic, low salt, gluten-free, and allergen-free-plus healthy snacks, and there's always someone making sure everyone's diet matches their needs.
The home has inside and outside common areas, including gardens, and you can find a beautician on-site for hair and grooming. Staff set up recreational activities, arts and crafts, and social groups every day, sometimes on site and sometimes on trips out. Residents can join in devotional services or special outreach, and families are included with support and education.
Mini Oaks takes pride in supporting aging in place, so folks can stay even as health needs change. The team helps with memory care by setting up safe rooms, keeping up regular routines, and giving extra attention to promote dignity. The home will accept both men and women, and sometimes has only female residents. The staff handles high acuity care and works with residents who have both complex medical issues and those who want some independence but need help now and then.
The setting feels calm and private, letting people make friends, keep up hobbies, and feel at home as they age. Residents use community transportation at an extra cost and have parking if they drive. There are visiting hours daily for families and friends. Mini Oaks Adult Family Home has been serving the Thurston County area for more than six years, with a track record for caring for people with many different needs in a simple, supportive way.
