Heritage Family Home Care operates a number of small, home-like care homes in neighborhoods like Arbor Heights, Highland Park, South Beacon Hill, Rainier View, and others, with addresses including 13205 12th Ave SW in Burien, Washington, and they're known for caring for seniors in a more personal setting, usually with six licensed beds per house. Their different homes have names such as Taylor's Adult Family Home, Burien Best Care Homes, Seahurst Park Senior Care, Heritage Adult Care Services, Bethany Adult Family Group Home, and more, all focused on providing care in smaller groups where residents get noticed and looked after. Living spaces are bright and open, with large, wheelchair-accessible bedrooms and bathrooms, colorful décor, private and semi-private room options, and an outdoor deck for fresh air when it's nice out, so folks can sit outside or walk in the garden on a good day. Residents can bring dogs, and the houses stay connected with high-speed guest WIFI, cable TV, and emergency call buttons, while being close to bus lines, hospitals, and offering things like private patios and easy access for wheelchairs and walkers, which helps people stay involved and comfortable.
Staff, including registered nurses and caregivers, provide help around the clock, staying cheerful and attentive, and they're trained to handle everything from daily tasks-like washing, dressing, bathing, medication, meal help, and laundry-to more complex care such as memory care, wound care, diabetic support, trach and ventilator care, and even hospice when needed, so even folks who need a lot of help can stay here. They also offer skilled nursing, rehabilitation, speech therapy, psychiatric care, fall prevention, and care for people with strokes, brain injuries, or developmental disabilities, with specialized support for memory loss to prevent wandering and ease confusion. Residents get meals made with good ingredients that focus on nutrition, and special diets are handled, so whether someone needs tube feeding or diabetic education, the team can do it. Activity programs are part of daily life, things like bingo, craft classes, celebrations, board games, barbecues, reading, puzzles, therapy visits, and walks outside, helping keep people busy, moving, and connected.
They've got home health, hospice, companion care, senior transportation, social services, as well as medical, dental, vision, and podiatry visits on-site, and they'll help with errands or get residents to appointments. Heritage Family Home Care works for people who want help living at home too, from simple daily care to more involved medical needs, with the same trained staff and a focus on personal comfort. Families can set up short-term stays or respite care, and the homes welcome both long-term and temporary residents. The average monthly cost is $3,612, which covers the care, meals, activities, and staff help. The caregiver-to-senior ratio matches state rules, and Care.com checks them each month for safety.
The owners, who are registered nurses, try to keep the places safe, peaceful, and welcoming, focusing on meetings seniors' needs and following each resident's care plan closely, whether for assisted living, independent living, memory care, or high-level medical needs, so people can have help, independence, and dignity for as long as they stay.
