Evergreen AFH sits at 10603 NE 137th Pl in Kirkland and provides a home-like setting for seniors, offering care in small group adult family homes tucked right into local neighborhoods, and there's several locations around Kirkland with names like Bethell Adult Family Home, Kingsgate Careland AFH, Grace Memory Care, and others, each with their own touch. The homes offer assisted living, memory care, and board and care for folks who need daily help or supervision, while keeping things comfortable and personal with private rooms, personalized furnishings, and options for room service or having a kitchenette or accessible bathroom with wheelchair-friendly showers.
There's help for people with dementia or Alzheimer's, including specialized programs, activities, and 24-hour support, plus care for people needing help with incontinence, diabetes, wounds, medication, and those who can't get around easily, so seniors with a wide range of health needs get attention as those needs might change. Staff stay onsite day and night, keeping an eye on things, giving medication, helping with personal care, and handling even higher-acuity care or skilled nursing when that's needed, with the goal that residents can keep living there as care needs grow.
Food plays a big role, with daily home-cooked meals, snacks, and choices for special diets like low sugar, vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free, or low salt, and residents can eat together or whenever hunger strikes. There are activities, companionship, and events planned, along with rides to appointments or errands and parking for those who drive, although sometimes transportation costs extra.
Evergreen AFH offers respite care and short stays for when someone just needs a break, support for low-income seniors needing affordable housing, and options for those wanting independent living as well as more help or memory support. The homes provide internet, TV, phone, and bath tubs for comfort and convenience. Residents can expect care tailored to each person-help with daily tasks, medication reminders, activities, and even more personal touches, trying to keep things simple and family-like, which is why many families share positive comments about the care and setting.
