Elite Care AFH is an adult family home in Tacoma, WA, that's been family-operated for 10 years and is licensed for six beds, though there are seven bedrooms and three bathrooms, and only four private rooms, so every resident has their own space unless a married couple shares a room, and staff keep things comfortable and safe while focusing on privacy. The home sits in a quiet, country-like residential area, two blocks from the city bus line, close to parks, restaurants, and community spots, and people who live there can also have their pets if they want. They allow both male and female residents and offer certain accommodations for each, focusing on seniors, folks with mental health needs, developmental disabilities, or dementia, and make sure there's 24-hour care, including an awake night caregiver, always ready if help is needed. All rooms have call buttons, and there are night safeguards for residents who tend to wander, plus the house has a wheelchair ramp, handicap-ready shower rooms, and outdoor common areas where people can enjoy the fresh air or just have a break.
Elite Care AFH aims for a homelike feeling, so caregivers help with daily needs-bathing, dressing, meals, medication, and housekeeping. There are always nurses on staff and doctors, dentists, and nurses on call for when things come up, and the team is trained in Alzheimer's, dementia, mental health, First Aid, CPR, and HIV. Their program has daily activities both onsite and out in the community, along with devotional services and group meals, so the residents stay social and active. People can use beauty and barber services, and resident parking is available for those who want to keep a car, but nobody's allowed to smoke indoors. The staff keeps the living spaces safe and tailored to each person's needs, and they're trained to support independence and dignity, handling long-term care services for elderly and frail adults.
The home's smaller size means attention to detail and relationships can grow, and caregivers-such as Certified Nursing Assistants (CNA), Home Care Aides (HCA), or certain exempt caregivers-take care of the residents full-time. They accept men and women, don't take Medicare unless officially certified, and are regulated by state rules, making sure to meet all safety codes. Memory care services for Alzheimer's and dementia are available, with special programs and protected areas for those who need extra safety and engagement, along with specialized care for mental health and hospice needs. Visiting hours run from 9:00am to 8:00pm to give family and friends time to visit, and the staff is dedicated to compassion, independence, and respect, always working to support health and well-being in this small, secure setting.
