Affordable Home Care, at 6020 South Wapato Lake Drive in Tacoma, gives seniors a home-like setting with choices for assisted living, memory care, independent living, and nursing home care, all in one place that's meant to feel like an actual home and not a facility, with a focus on keeping costs lower without cutting corners on the help people need, and you'll find smaller Adult Family Home (AFH) and Residential Care Home setups like Golden Age Adult Family Home, Casa De Alegre, and Heart of Gold Adult Family Home that allow just four residents per community, making it easy to get to know the staff and other folks staying there. The caregivers help with daily tasks like showering, dressing, toileting, bathing, and hygiene, and they'll help take residents to doctor visits, shopping trips, and even out to spiritual events or activities, plus there's a mobile hairdresser and lots of programs like music therapy, animal therapy, tabletop games, and community nights. The apartments have private rooms, bathrooms with bath tubs and wheelchair accessible showers, and there's both indoor and outdoor common spaces for relaxing or socializing, along with a yard, book room, craft plans, movie time, workout space, sauna, and jacuzzi to use. Seniors can choose vegetarian or Kosher meals, and the staff adjusts meal plans for diabetes or hypertension. Health care includes medication management, incontinence care, diabetic care, non-ambulatory care, and high acuity care, with memory care for those with Alzheimer's and dementia. The staffing offers both medical help and extra services, and if a family only needs short-term help, there are respite and adult day care programs. Families can get advice through free local expert guidance or the SeniorAdvisor Service to match with the right place, and there are Feefo reviews to see what others think, plus there's independent living and Continuing Care Retirement Community (CCRC) options for folks who want more or less assistance. Transportation and parking are available, with rides to appointments at cost, and there's support for family caregivers too, so people can find a place that fits their needs. Regular activities, game rooms, and entertainment make daily life active, but with just a few residents and quiet surroundings, things stay calm and more personal. The business is open every weekday from 8AM to 9PM and on weekends from 8AM to 5:30PM, and the main goal really seems to be making sure everyone finds the kind of safe, comfortable, and kind care that fits their preferences at a fair price.
