Tiburon Estates AFH sits in Sammamish, WA, close to Lake Sammamish and near Sahalee Country Club, in a quiet, well-kept single-story home where six residents can get personalized care in a small setting. The place offers memory care as a main service, supporting people with Alzheimer's and dementia, and staff keep a close eye with a wander alert system, so if someone tries to leave or enters a risky spot, staff get notified right away. The staff can speak Hungarian, Romanian, and English, which helps some families feel more at home, and they're known to be loving and caring folks who help with reminders for medicine, grooming, and toileting. Residents can choose a private or semi-private room; bathrooms have a walk-in shower or a tub, and all rooms and showers are wheelchair accessible. The place is built for people who need help with daily things like bathing, dressing, or medication management, offering 24-hour care in a home-like space. Even though there are only six licensed beds, that small number means residents get more attention and everything feels quieter and slower than a bigger facility.
There's a swimming pool and a hot tub outside, so folks can stay active and spend time outdoors, plus indoor and outdoor sitting areas if someone just wants to relax. Residents get home-cooked meals by the owners, and staff assist with meal planning and serving; vegetarian options are available by request. There's parking on site for those who need it, along with a beautician for hair and grooming needs. There aren't only things to do inside; staff plan activities both on and off the property, including Christian services for those interested. Families sometimes need a break, so Tiburon Estates AFH does respite or short-term stays if a caregiver can't be around for a while, and they serve adults needing both long-term care and short-term help, making sure health needs like diabetes, high-acuity care, ambulatory care, and incontinence are watched over. It doesn't accept Medicare since it's not certified by the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services, but it's a licensed adult family home for King County, and it's easy enough to check the website for details about availability. People can visit from 9:00am to 8:00pm, and help is always available during the week, starting early in the morning until the evening. One review on SeniorAdvisor.com gave the home an excellent 5.0 out of 5. While there's a current website error, families can still talk with SeniorAdvisor.com for free consulting if they want guidance picking care options. The place isn't fancy or large, but for folks who want quiet, close care, and a pool to enjoy, Tiburon Estates AFH offers a simple, peaceful place to live.
