Rosegarden Care Center sits at 715 Locust Street in Omak, Washington, tucked away in a quiet neighborhood, and has room for up to 23 residents. This Enhanced Residential Care Assisted Living Facility has 18 beds and offers care for adults 40 years and older, though sometimes it only accepts female residents, so it's best to check about that, and caters to those who need assisted living, memory care for Alzheimer's or dementia, independent living, skilled nursing, and even hospice and respite care. The staff includes onsite and visiting nurses, a doctor on call, therapists for rehab and speech, podiatrists, and dentists, most of whom have been at Rosegarden over five years, so there's a steady hand for different health needs, which range from light help to more advanced needs like non-ambulatory care, using mechanical lifts, managing incontinence, help with blood sugar for diabetics-though they don't do insulin injections-and support for residents with major behavior conditions. The place has both studio and one-bedroom or two-bedroom apartments and some semi-private rooms, with furnished options, telephones in rooms, wheelchair-accessible showers, and emergency call systems, and there are no buy-in fees or community fees, but you'll find rent for a one-bedroom is around $3,600, and extra levels of care have a listed cost of $0.00 monthly, while daily respite care is $200.
Residents have access to services like bathing, dressing, transfers, medication management, housekeeping, laundry, grooming and salon care, plus either independent or assisted meal options at a dining room where cooks whip up gourmet meals, many from local farmers markets, and help is offered for dietary needs like vegetarian, diabetic, or allergy-sensitive menus, and everybody gets three home-style meals daily. There's a comfortable, home-like feel, and the grounds are kept tidy, with indoor common areas for games, visiting, and movie nights, and outdoor spaces for walking, gardening, and backyard barbecues. Folks often join for scheduled community events like church singing, musical performances, crafts, and social activities, with staff always around-even through the night-so help is just a call away using the 24-hour system. Transportation to clinics or shopping comes at an extra cost, but resident parking is included, and the center's near local medical facilities and a bus line. Move-in is coordinated by the center, and there's advice and planning for families to figure out senior living needs, with payment accepted through private pay, Social Security, veterans benefits, or insurance. Home health and aging-in-place options exist for those whose health needs change, and independent, assisted, and nursing care choices let residents stay as needs shift, with a focus on promoting well-being and independence. Rosegarden is a no-smoking property with both private and public indoor areas smoke-free, and there are both indoor and outdoor gathering places, including an arts room, book room, game areas, and spots for music or relaxation, and some programs may even include animal therapy or music therapy. There's help for personal care and daily living, and staff works to keep residents engaged through exercise, recreation, and resident-led activities that support healthy habits, offering a simple, steady life for those who call Rosegarden home.
