Grace Alzheimer's Home Care sits in a quiet residential neighborhood in Bellevue, WA, where the grounds have beautifully landscaped gardens, lots of greenery, and spaces where residents can take in the fresh air or spend time with pets, since pets like dogs and cats are welcome as part of daily life here. The place is set up as an Adult Family Home and focuses on helping people with Alzheimer's disease, dementia, and memory loss, offering personalized services to fit each person's needs whether they need light, medium, or heavy care, and that includes people with complex medical or behavioral care needs, from those showing aggressive or wandering behaviors to folks with odd or difficult symptoms, including development disabilities and mental health needs, with secure areas and technology like alarm bracelets and alert systems to keep everyone safe from wandering off.
The staff at Grace Alzheimer's Home Care stays awake and alert all hours, ready to provide 24-hour support, and can help with everything from medication reminders to blood sugar checks and insulin injections, helping residents handle diabetic care or bowel and bladder problems if they can manage it themselves. Residents get support with mobility, like using a Hoyer lift, and there's skilled help for speech, occupational, and physical therapy, whether from the regular caregivers or from visiting specialists, while a doctor is on call as needed, and nurses visit regularly to keep up with checkups and special care plans that each resident gets tailored to their own situation.
There's a real home-like feeling here, with private or semi-private rooms, many having private baths, and wheelchair-accessible features such as showers. The meals are well-balanced, sometimes with kosher or vegetarian options, cooked up fresh every day to fit special diets when needed, and the dining and living areas give everyone a space to sit, relax, or talk with others quietly or join larger group activities, devotional services, or gentle exercise programs that help folks stay active and connected. Residents who want can join educational programs, entertainment, or group outings, which the staff organizes to keep minds active and promote both independence and community, and transportation-parking, rides at cost, or complimentary trips-makes it easier for people to get to appointments or go out with the group. The home welcomes visitors every day between 9:00 am and 8:00 pm, so family and friends can stay connected.
Grace Alzheimer's Home Care also provides home health care services certified by Medicare, non-medical home care, adult day services, hospice, respite care, and long-term skilled nursing options, all in one setting so people can age in place without having to move as their needs change. Staff members have training in de-escalation and working with Alzheimer's care needs. There are close-knit amenities like an onsite beautician and barber, pet care, on- or off-site devotional opportunities, and regular access to a podiatrist and dentist.
The environment's designed to reduce confusion and prevent wandering, supporting both men and women and even offering options for female-only living, and the place aims to create a warm, comfortable, and safe environment where everyone can keep as much independence as possible while getting the kind of support that helps people with memory challenges or dementia live a healthy, engaged life, surrounded by caring people and the comforts of home.
