Holy Land Adult Family Home sits in Marysville, Washington at 8804 78th Dr NE, and it's a small, privately run board and care home with licensed beds for just six residents, so things stay quiet and personal, and the folks there focus a great deal on memory care for those with Alzheimer's or other dementias. People can choose from a one-bedroom room that costs $6,000 a month or go for a semi-private room at $4,500 a month, and both options are part of a carefully designed house that's meant to feel as homey and comfortable as possible. Residents get a lot of help as needed-whether it's with bathing, getting dressed, or managing medicines, and the staff handles more serious needs like feeding tubes, trach care, monitoring vital signs, Hoyer lifts, and even care for those who are bed-bound. The place feels safe, with alarms and a secured fence out back to keep folks from wandering, especially those struggling with memory or confusion, and the staff is used to responding quickly if something comes up.
The people living here can join in activities like garden work in the backyard, piano music, singing, playing games, Bible study, reading in the library, or using the computer and watching TV, and there's an activity director during the week to help everyone stay busy. The home brings in medical professionals as needed-MDs make house visits, therapists drop by, and there are visits from dietitians and other helpers. Transportation is available for outings or doctor's appointments, and people like to go for walks around the garden or the nearby lake, or just sit together and watch a movie or celebrate birthdays and holidays, which they always do with a relaxed feeling.
Help is always on hand for daily tasks, and they support folks with special health concerns, including those needing physical, occupational, or speech therapy, or folks dealing with blood sugar monitoring. The community values safety, dignity, and keeping everyone as independent as possible, and all staff aim to provide comfortable, dependable care. Pets are allowed if someone wants their animal friend to stay with them, but smoking isn't allowed inside. There are beautiful private suites, big living rooms, a pretty courtyard, and spaces for most needs, whether someone likes noisy games or a quiet day with a book. With a focus on people who need help with memory and thoughtful touches for seniors, the place tries to strike a balance between home comforts, steady care, and opportunities for everyone to spend their days in ways that are meaningful and safe.
