St Francis Of Bellingham operates as a licensed nursing-home provider, supplying 24-hour skilled nursing care for older adults who need continuous medical supervision. Short-term respite stays are available, giving family caregivers a break while ensuring the individual receives the same round-the-clock clinical attention as long-term residents. Registered nurses oversee care plans, coordinate with physicians, and manage medications to keep treatment consistent and safe.

Beyond skilled nursing and respite services, the staff assists with routine activities such as bathing, dressing, and mobility, adjusting the level of help as a resident’s condition changes. Rehabilitation therapies, wound care, and regular health assessments are delivered on site, and the team maintains open communication with families about progress and any changes in health status.

Accommodation options range from private to companion suites. Some rooms include views of landscaped grounds or direct access to outdoor garden spaces, and most have cable TV and Wi-Fi, though not every room offers each of these features. Well-kept outdoor areas give residents places to walk or sit, and indoor common rooms offer additional space for visiting or quiet time.

Daily meals are prepared on site, and menus are designed to meet nutritional guidelines for seniors while accommodating common dietary restrictions. Residents dine in shared dining rooms that promote social interaction, and clinical staff monitor intake for those who need help maintaining proper nutrition.

Residents have access to an activity center that hosts arts and crafts sessions, live entertainment, and group social outings. A library and computer lounge support reading, internet use, and small discussion groups. These programs aim to maintain cognitive engagement and offer regular opportunities for social connection within and beyond the community.
