Beehive Kimra sits at 1455 W Kimra St in Meridian, Idaho, and is part of Bee Hive Homes of Meridian at Kimra, with Meridian Senior Living Facilities running things, and you'll find a community that has a home-like feel with round-the-clock staff always nearby to help with daily needs and medication, and while there isn't an on-staff nurse, there's always access to a consulting nurse and outside home health care services if a doctor orders them. The campus is open all day and every day, offering private bedrooms with bathrooms that have ADA showers, and couples can have blocks of rooms if they like, so folks can choose living setups that work for their needs, whether that's for short-term respite stays, longer assisted living, or specialized memory care since Beehive Kimra uses terms and program names made for their style of care and keeps residents' individual needs top of mind, providing help for things like incontinence and adjusting plans as needs change.
People living here don't have to worry about cooking, cleaning, or laundry because daily housekeeping and laundry services come included, while chef or dietitian-approved meals-mostly home-cooked, sometimes one or two a day depending on the setup, plus snacks-keep it simple and nutritious. The facility even has its own beauty and barber salon, a hair and nail salon, a resident lounge, private cable and Wi-Fi, and a secure outdoor courtyard for fresh air and gardening, and because keeping active is important, there are activities designed for the body and mind as well as social outings, so folks can enjoy both group fun and quiet time. Residents who need a little more help, especially with memory care, get care through programs that keep up with each person's changes and encourage family ties, which many people appreciate, and those in assisted living have 24-hour support in private rooms if they'd rather their own space.
Beehive Kimra takes payments in a lot of ways, including major credit cards and debit, so that part is easy, and the place is known for its caring, helpful staff, folks who've gotten recognition in areas like friendly service and fun activities-though nothing's perfect, people usually mention how cheerful and kind their helpers are. For people who need more than assisted living, like nursing, rehabilitation, adult day care, or just a safe spot for a short time, options are available, and each person's care is tracked through the Caremerge system to keep things organized and simple.
Some units come furnished, all have private bathrooms, and utilities like phone and cable are covered, which older folks tend to find simpler, while extra support, accessible design, and on-site meals let residents focus on staying comfortable and connected to family, with staff always working to keep things feeling "just like home"-so while there's no fancy hype here, people seem to find Beehive Kimra a solid, affordable spot for senior living with the extras that matter, and you can learn more or download a brochure from their website any time.
