Able Adult Family Home sits over on 609 North Bowdish Road in Spokane Valley, Washington, and houses up to six residents in a smaller, homelike setting that tends to suit folks who like quiet and community. The setup's set up to be wheelchair accessible, so navigating the spaces isn't a problem, and you'll find a shared living area along with outdoor garden spots where residents can sit and visit when the weather cooperates. Folks living here get meals that're healthy and tasty, and anyone with special nutrition needs, like for diabetes or high blood pressure, can get meals made for those health conditions without fuss. There's help with basics like bathing, eating, and dressing, as well as support for things like getting in and out of bed, moving around with a walker or wheelchair, or keeping clean and groomed with a mobile hairdresser or stylist stopping by.
This place has resident and guest parking right on site, and you'll find a salon and barbershop, too, so getting a haircut isn't a hassle, and you also get free high-speed Wi-Fi, cable TV, and telephones at hand. For care, they handle a good range of needs, including dementia, stroke, diabetes, Parkinson's, and Alzheimer's, and there's also support for folks with developmental disabilities or mental health concerns. Caregivers here keep an eye out day and night, and there's nursing staff and a doctor on call if medical attention's needed, plus they offer wound care, hearing support, dental care, speech therapy, occupational therapy, physical therapy, podiatry, medication help, and personal hygiene assistance. Able Adult Family Home handles everything from assisted living to memory care and can give two-person or mechanical lift assistance if needed. They're set up for long-term care, hospice, and respite, and their team's trained to work with people with different conditions, aiming to give care that fits each person.
The daily routine can include movie nights, crafts, music programs, fitness sessions, animal therapy, outdoor relaxation, and social events in the recreation or book rooms. There's help getting to appointments or running errands, plus transportation for spiritual services if that's part of someone's life. Visiting hours run from 9 in the morning 'til 8 at night. The smoking policy keeps indoor spaces smoke-free for everyone's comfort. The place is overseen and certified by Washington's Department of Social Services, with a focus on safe, sensible care. The whole idea's to help residents stay as independent as they can while still having support and company, and most folks find it's a calm and stable place to live when they're needing some help but still want to hold onto their own routines as much as possible.
