Cedar View AFH II serves as an adult family home focused on retirement living and residential care, really leaning into both memory care and general support for seniors who need different levels of assistance, whether it's light, medium, or even heavy care, seeing as how they've got those different classifications and handle tasks like medication management, help with daily living, and even more complex needs like insulin injections or blood sugar checks. The staff works onsite all the time, awake 24 hours a day to keep an eye on everyone, ready to help with things like moving from place to place-using a single helper, two people, or even mechanical lifts if needed-and they really watch out for folks who might wander or show signs of dementia, given their secure memory care area and special technology, like bracelets and alarms, and that's a relief for the families. The community sits in Washington, somewhere close to cities like Seattle, Bellevue, Auburn, and Bothell, so people can stay near relatives if they wish, and since they're structured to change care levels as needed, a resident can stick around even as needs change over time.
Rooms come as shared spaces, studios, or one-bedroom setups, fitted for wheelchairs, and they have accessible showers and tubs for safety, plus features that make moving around easier. Pets are welcome, and residents can often find gardens and walking trails to enjoy outdoors, and then there are plenty of indoor spaces, like a movie room, a café, and HD TVs for shared viewing. People have access to housekeeping, laundry, parking, transportation options-though some might cost a bit extra-and services like a barbershop or onsite beautician. Meals get planned with input from a registered dietitian, and the kitchen prepares vegetarian choices if needed. Wellness programs, fitness, and different social or hobby activities help people stay busy and connected. Staff understand how to work with serious issues like Parkinson's, behavior concerns, special diets, incontinence, and they can even support those recovering from surgery, giving personalized care based on what each person needs.
Families and residents can talk with staff to develop personalized service plans, making sure individual needs and independence stick as the top priorities, and there's a focus on making things as home-like and welcoming as possible, always working to build good relationships with everyone who lives there. Communal spaces encourage folks to spend time together, but private rooms are available for those who want more space. Security stays a big focus, with emergency systems in every room and staff available to supervise and prevent wandering or unsafe situations, and short-term stays or respite care are offered too, in case someone only needs a place for a little while. For people managing memory loss, high acuity needs, or chronic illnesses, Cedar View AFH II's team steps in to provide that steady, attentive care, day and night.
