St. Maria Adult Family Home Care sits in peaceful areas like Lake Forest Park, Kenmore, Shoreline, and Seattle, and these places have homes where only six residents live together, so folks get real personal care and attention from the staff who are always there, day and night, ready to help with everything from bathing, grooming, eating, getting dressed, and moving around, and families can talk to local advisors at no cost to get advice about what type of care will fit best. Residents can pick a private or semi-private room, most with cable TV, phone, cozy touches, and even some nice views of the Cascade Mountains. The community has adult family homes and board and care homes, including Bavarien Home Care, Victoria AFH, Evergreen Adult Family Home, Barclay Group Home, and Rose Park Manor, and each has its own special way of caring, including strong memory care for people with dementia or Alzheimer's, offering secure spaces, 24-hour memory support, and activities meant to help keep minds active and spirits up, plus residents with health issues like diabetes, high blood pressure, or trouble walking get professional nursing help as needed.
Meals are home-cooked and served three times a day, with kosher and vegetarian choices possible, and if someone needs a special diet because of health needs, the kitchen will adjust. Every place is pet-friendly within certain weight limits, too, so people can bring their cats or dogs. Amenities are plentiful-there's help with medication management, diabetic care, incontinence support, wound care, and even high-level rehabilitation if needed. Residents find quiet spaces for reading, rooms for games or music, a hairdresser comes in if they want, and there are outdoor yards for getting some air. Scheduled events happen most days; these might include art, fitness, music, animal therapy, tabletop games, movie nights, and organized trips for groceries, medical visits, or religious services, with transportation offered either for free or for a fee.
Rooms have large bathrooms, some wheelchair accessible with walk-in showers, and resident parking is available for those who still drive. Families who need a break can arrange for short-term or respite stays, knowing their loved one will be well cared for while they're away, and support for caregivers comes through helpful consultants. Staff can help with most medical needs, including insulin shots and two-person transfers, and everything goes by a clear, personal care plan that matches what the resident can do or needs help with every day, following Washington's senior care rules under license number 750850.
St. Maria AFH keeps its atmosphere warm, clean, and homey, with a focus on dignity, respect, and straightforward care, running as efficiently and calmly as a good family household, and most folks who live here, and their families, give high marks-about 4.6 out of 5 stars, based on reviews. Medicaid and private pay are accepted for residents, and the whole point is to make sure seniors feel comfortable, safe, and involved as long as they're at St. Maria, where both daily life and special needs get careful, practical attention.
