A Place Called Home LLC is a small adult family home in Tumwater, Washington that's licensed for six residents and offers several types of care, including assisted living, nursing home services, independent living, home care, and memory care for those with Alzheimer's or other types of dementia. The home's run by an RN and has trained staff available all day and night, offering help with bathing, dressing, medication, meals, and anything else someone might need throughout the day or night, and there's always a nurse on staff and a doctor on call if someone needs more help. Meals are prepared and served three times a day, and snacks like nutritional shakes are available, plus there's laundry, beauty and barber services, housekeeping, and all the cleaning's handled for everyone living there so folks don't need to worry.
The home allows both male and female residents and lets people bring pets, though there's no smoking allowed anywhere inside, whether it's in private or public indoor areas. They've made things safer and easier for folks who aren't too steady on their feet, with features like wheelchair accessible showers, walk-in tubs, medical alert systems like Bay Alarm Medical, Medical Guardian, and ADT Medical Alert, and medication dispensers. On top of that, there's staff to help out with technology, hearing aids, and even senior cell phones or special internet plans. People who need special medical care can see a podiatrist, dentist, or hospice staff, and there's devotional services and social events both on and off site. There's also activities every day that are supervised, structured, and meant to keep everyone engaged, whether indoors in common rooms or outside.
The setting's comfortable and home-like, focused on providing privacy but also shared spaces and companionship in a close-knit atmosphere, and there's options for both long-term stays and respite care if families need a break. Safe parking's available for residents, and there's rides for appointments or errands if needed. The facility's been licensed by the state of Washington, running as a non-Medicaid adult family home, and does not accept Medicare unless approved by the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services. Records of licensing and disclosures for services are open for review, and they're registered with DSHS for added peace of mind. Visiting hours run daily from 9:00am to 8:00pm, and amenities include Wi-Fi, pet-friendly options, beauty services, and both indoor and outdoor common areas. Everything is tailored to fit each resident's needs so folks can have as much independence as they want while still having help close at hand, aging in place in a relaxed environment with 24/7 support.
