Rockwood at Whitworth

Rockwood at Whitworth sits in North Spokane and you can walk right over to the nearby Whitworth University, which means residents and visitors can go to cultural and sporting events or take part in university programs, and the place itself is pretty lovely, having apartment homes with open kitchens and living spaces, patios or balconies, and big bedrooms, including some two-bedroom options to have room for guests. The community has independent living, assisted living, skilled nursing, and a special memory support neighborhood for those living with Alzheimer's or dementia, so people can move in and stay as their needs change because it's a Life Plan community, and folks get things like help with bathing, dressing, walking, medication, wound care, and even therapy, all with nurses and CNAs on staff around the clock. The facility offers all sorts of activities, with game areas, art, fitness, a dog park, theater, salon, café, and plenty of places to gather and be social, and it's wheelchair accessible and set up to be safe for people with different abilities, with things like sprinklers and grab bars. You'll find housing ranging from small board and care homes in quiet neighborhoods to more apartment-style living, and there's a wide price range, from $2,000 a month for studio or single apartments in assisted living up to $10,500 for private nursing home rooms, with both private and semi-private rooms offered, and new folks can move right into Palvella Glen assisted living without having to pay an entry fee. Meals, housekeeping, laundry, and transportation services are available, plus there's cable TV in the rooms, and access to Wi-Fi, a private dining room for celebrations, and a sunny balcony or sunroom for relaxing. Residents can join games, do classes, attend educational and wellness programs, enjoy arts and crafts, or even volunteer within the Rockwood at Whitworth community, and they can talk with physicians about their medical needs, have personalized care plans, and connect with other families to see what life's like there. The nonprofit has local leadership and puts care and thought into the design and maintenance of the place, making sure folks can keep their independence as long as possible, and, whether you need home care, adult day services, or more full-time support, options are available, with a focus on comfort, companionship, safety, and dignity for everyone who lives there.
