Facilities
It is estimated that 57 percent of the 85+ population in this country require assistance with at least one activity of daily living and 35 percent require assistance with more than one.
Currently, over 1 million older Americans live in assisted living facilities and that number is expected to escalate dramatically as the baby boom generation begins to gray.
A recent national survey estimates at least 25 percent of nursing home residents could be cared for in an assisted living environment at 70 percent of the cost of skilled care or, in some cases, even less.
Independence and Security
As people age, many experience increasing difficulty with the activities of daily living they once took for granted. Eating, dressing, using the bathroom and moving around can all become more challenging. Northwest Care helps residents with these challenges and, as a result, to live life to the fullest while maintaining their independence, privacy and dignity. Our residence can feel secure knowing that someone is always there 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
Warm Home Like Environment
Residents live in spacious apartments that have private bathrooms with showers and kitchenettes equipped with refrigerator, microwave and spacious cabinets. Each apartment also has individually controlled heating and a call system to alert the nursing staff in case of an emergency.
Our facilities feature lounge and recreation areas, beauty salon and barbershop, library, and laundry facilities for personal use. Families and friends of residents are encouraged to visit and take advantage of the private dining room for special gatherings.
In addition to lovely interiors, we provide beautiful surroundings for residents to garden, stroll and enjoy outdoor activities.
Diverse and Delicious Dining
Our communities are noted for excellent food. Meals are provided three times a day in a lovely and comfortable dining room. However, room service is available when required. There are many different choices for meals and residents can enjoy their lifelong favorites or try new and interesting dishes. Our chefs are also able to meet a number of special dietary needs.
Quality of Life
Ultimately, Assisted Living is an ideal choice for seniors. Activity programs make sure residents stay just as busy as they want to be, health care services are available 24-hours a day, and residents can enjoy the companionship and security of being surrounded by a caring community of friends.
