Cozy Place Adult Family Home sits in Spokane Valley, WA, licensed under number 754549 and registered with DSHS, and has cared for adults since 2011 with a genuine focus on respect and dignity, run by Ms. Emily Fries and Mr. Samuel Courehaine as the principal contacts for this limited liability company. The home has six licensed beds, allowing small group care that feels home-like, and the staff help geriatric residents with things like transfers, meal management, and medication assistance, offering both long-term and short-term respite stays for those who want a quieter setting without a big crowd. People can choose private or semi-private rooms, each with at least a twin bed, linens, lockable storage, and either private or semi-private bathrooms, plus cable TV, internet, and private telephones, and the rooms are all wheelchair and walker accessible, some with private patios and lots of natural light.
There's a covered patio with a view of fruit trees, and inside there's a big common area for family visits, holidays, or group activities, with high speed internet and guest Wi-Fi available. A public cordless phone is set up for private conversations, but folks can have their own phones in their rooms if they want. The family-oriented setup gives room for shared meals, games, celebrations, or just sitting together, and they serve several meal choices every day, making sure there are options for people with special diets like diabetic, gluten-free, low sodium, vegetarian, kosher, or allergies, plus there are snacks and drinks always available.
The staff stay on site around the clock, ready to lend a hand with daily living tasks, and nurses handle medication support and management, providing in-house care, including for those with high needs, non-ambulatory care, diabetic support, memory care for Alzheimer's and dementia, incontinence help, wound care, visual or hearing support, and even total care for quadriplegic and trach patients. Special services include physical, occupational, and speech therapy visits, podiatry checks, oxygen, tube feeding, pharmacy delivery, and nurse evaluations, plus fall prevention, pharmacy medication disposal, and help scheduling medical appointments.
There's always something to do with planned activities like exercise classes, bingo, movie nights, arts and crafts, gardening, puzzles, card games, reading, and Sit to Be Fit, along with birthday and holiday parties, aromatherapy, music and pet therapy visits, and outings with transportation available for a fee. Families get support through outreach and education, and can visit any day between 9:00am and 8:00pm to keep in touch. Security comes from locked or fenced exits, emergency call buttons, and a location near a hospital, making sure people stay safe, and staff are careful to tailor each care package to individual needs, with regular inspections and electronic medical records that family decision makers can access. Private and public areas have heating and air conditioning, and the house allows pet visits by arrangement, but pets don't live there, which helps keep the place quiet and clean.
The business has held an A+ rating with the Better Business Bureau, operating since its official opening in January 2016, and looks for extra help like certified nursing assistants to join their full-time team. Linen laundry services and hair or nail care visits are available, so clothes and looks stay neat, and there's parking for visitors and easy access for people with limited mobility. Cozy Place Adult Family Home keeps things simple, strives to make residents comfortable, and tries to make every day a little better for those who live there.
