The Gables of Idaho Falls Assisted Living provides a single level of care—assisted living—delivered by a team trained to help with activities of daily living such as bathing, dressing, and medication management. Short-term respite stays are available for families who need temporary coverage, and residents with diabetes receive monitoring and assistance with glucose checks, insulin administration, and diet oversight. A speech therapist visits the community to address swallowing issues or communication challenges, allowing residents to receive rehabilitative support without leaving the building.
Safety and staffing are central to daily operations. The community is secured, restricting entry and exit to help protect residents who may be at risk of wandering. Staff members are on site around the clock to respond to urgent needs, coordinate physician orders, and arrange outside services such as lab work or physical therapy when required. Electronic call systems and regular wellness checks add another layer of oversight for residents and peace of mind for families.
Apartments are offered in several floor plans, and not every unit includes every feature, so prospective residents should confirm availability during a tour. Some accommodations include wheelchair-accessible showers, kitchenettes, individual climate control, cable or satellite TV, and Wi-Fi. Shared spaces feature a central fireplace, a piano for casual use, outdoor sitting areas, and on-site parking. All areas are designed to be handicap accessible, promoting easy movement with walkers or wheelchairs.
Meals are prepared on site and served throughout the day, allowing residents to eat on their own schedule rather than at fixed seating times. The culinary team can produce low-sodium and no-added-sugar options to align with physician directives, and guest meals are available so visitors can join friends or family members. Snacks and beverages are accessible between meals, and staff monitor nutritional intake for residents who need closer oversight.
Residents can make use of an activity center, library and computer lounge, and indoor walking paths for daily engagement. A schedule of yoga or chair yoga, fitness programs, and swimming pool sessions supports physical health, while raised garden beds, social outings, happy hours, live music, and birthday parties encourage social interaction. The community also organizes reminiscence programs, clubs, dances, and special events such as lectures or hobby groups to suit varied interests.
