Dahlia Inn Senior Care sits in Vancouver, Washington, as a small Adult Family Home with just six assisted living units, offering private bedrooms and studios for every resident and each room can have its own private bath, a tub, or a wheelchair accessible shower, which is good for folks who need easy access. Staff gives 24-hour care and stays awake at night to help with things like getting dressed, going to the bathroom, bathing, manual feeding, and helping with medication, which includes insulin injections and blood sugar checks for people with diabetes. Residents can also get continence support, use mechanical lifts or get one-person and two-person transfer help, and the team helps people who use wheelchairs or need high level care, and they also work with residents who have behavioral or mental health needs.
There's a focus on memory care in a dedicated building with secured doors, alarms, and special wander alert bracelets, which is meant to help keep people with Alzheimer's or dementia safe and there's technology to prevent residents from leaving unnoticed. Dahlia Inn Senior Care has visiting hours from 9 in the morning to 8 at night, and offers spaces both inside and outside to relax, with a big dining room for three daily meals, and extra menu choices like kosher, vegetarian, and pureed foods for those who need them, and laundry service makes things easier.
People here can join in bingo, cards, arts and crafts classes, watch movies in the theatre, or use the beauty salon, and social and entertainment activities happen every day so people stay busy. Nurses stay on staff and a doctor can be called if needed, and a registered nurse might check on health assessments and ongoing health needs, plus family counseling is available.
Residents who have special care needs, like those with developmental disabilities or folks at risk of falling or wandering, get monitoring and reminders for daily living. Some apartments and the grounds have extra security, and staff know how to use pull cords or panic buttons in case someone needs help, and scheduled rides are offered for trips out, though it might cost extra. The whole place is meant to feel like a home, supporting independence, with care plans tailored to what each person needs. There are devotional services on site, and families can expect support for any questions or needs that come up. Dahlia Inn Senior Care doesn't take Medicaid at this time, and no details are listed for private pay, but it tries to offer a comfortable place with many comforts and services for seniors with different care needs.
