Cedarhurst of Washington offers two primary levels of care—Assisted Living and Memory Care—so residents can receive support matched to their cognitive and physical needs without changing communities. Short-term respite stays are available for recovery or caregiver relief, and every resident benefits from scheduled wellness checks that track vital signs and chronic conditions. Diabetes management is part of routine clinical oversight, and a speech therapist is available for communication or swallowing issues. Because licensed nurses are on site, the community can coordinate medication management, monitor incontinence programs, and provide ambulatory assistance when mobility changes.
An interdisciplinary team rounds out the medical support. Occupational and physical therapists help residents maintain or regain daily-living skills, while a podiatrist addresses foot health on site. A secure visitor sign-in process and keyed entries reinforce safety, and snow removal keeps access points clear for emergency personnel. Staff can step up monitoring for residents in Memory Care or during respite stays, ensuring continuity of care across all service levels.
Residents choose from several apartment layouts, many of which include kitchenettes, Wi-Fi access, and individual climate controls, though not every unit contains every feature. Wheelchair-accessible showers, air conditioning, and all utilities are standard, and select areas showcase a central fireplace and piano. Outdoor options include courtyards, resident garden beds, and walking paths within the suburban grounds. Parking is available, and the community’s pet-friendly policy lets residents apply to bring a companion animal.
Meals are prepared on site, with restaurant-style table service and an all-day dining schedule that accommodates fluctuating appetites. Standard menus are complemented by low-sodium, low-sugar, vegetarian, vegan, kosher, and gluten-free choices. Guests can join residents for meals, and beverages and snacks are stocked throughout the day. Nutrition staff coordinate closely with nursing to align menus with diabetic or other clinical dietary plans.
Daily life is supported by an activity center, arts and crafts sessions, fitness and wellness classes, and a library with computer access. Residents can swim in the pool, join happy hour, attend live-music performances, or take part in game and movie nights. Walking paths, raised garden beds, and scheduled social outings provide additional engagement, while birthdays and other events are routinely celebrated to foster community connection.
