Avista Senior Living North Mountain offers three levels of residency—Assisted Living, Independent Living, and Memory Care—under one roof. Residents who need routine help benefit from staff oversight while individuals wanting an independent lifestyle can live with minimal intervention, and a secured Memory Care neighborhood is in place for those with early to advanced dementia. The community accepts residents who wander at any time of day, may attempt elopement, present combative or other behavioral concerns, or stay awake through the night. Clinical support extends to complex medical needs such as wound care, oxygen use, specialty diets, and diabetes management whether on oral medication, injections, or sliding-scale protocols. The team also welcomes adults under age 60 who require an assisted setting.
Round-the-clock care is delivered by licensed nurses on site and on call, backed by background-checked staff who remain awake overnight. Emergency pull cords and personal alert devices connect directly to caregivers, and exterior doors are alarmed; a fenced courtyard adds another safety measure. On-site providers include podiatry, dental, and mental-health services, and a therapy room is available for rehabilitation sessions. Full assistance can be given with bathing, dressing, eating, and toileting. Mobility support ranges from simple standby help with a walker to one- or two-person assists, wheelchair transport, and full Hoyer-lift transfers. An activity director coordinates daily programming while security personnel maintain 24-hour coverage of the campus.
Residences vary from studio to larger layouts, and not every unit offers every feature. Options may include a private bathroom, kitchenette, furnished basics, independent temperature controls, cable, and the ability to repaint or decorate. Housekeeping and scheduled laundry services are provided campus-wide. Independent Living residents also receive weekly housekeeping, laundry service, and a flexible monthly meal plan so they can maintain autonomy without day-to-day chores.
Dining is managed by culinary staff who prepare both set menus and cooked-to-order selections three times a day. Snacks are available between meals, in-room dining can be arranged when needed, and a private dining room can be reserved for family gatherings. Dietary modifications cover gluten-free, vegetarian, mechanical-chop, puréed, and thickened-liquid meals, and specific physician-ordered diets are accommodated for residents with medical conditions such as diabetes or cardiac concerns.
Amenities on the campus include resident parking, outside smoking areas, wheelchair-accessible grounds, a barber and beauty shop, an exercise room, internet access, communal gardens, an outdoor pool, and scheduled on-site religious services. Transportation is provided for medical appointments and local errands, and the property is close to public transit options. Pets are allowed; it’s a good idea to check with the community during your visit to see if your pet will be allowed.
