Hearthstone Senior Living in Ellensburg offers three distinct living options—Assisted Living, Independent Living, and Memory Care. Residents can move between these levels as their needs change, remaining in familiar surroundings while accessing the appropriate support for activities of daily living, medication oversight, or specialized cognitive supervision. This continuity of care is designed to minimize disruptive transitions and provide consistent staff interaction.
Medical support at the community extends beyond routine assistance. Short-term respite stays are available, giving caregivers a break or helping seniors recover after hospitalization. Diabetes management, on-site physician visits, and scheduled appointments with a speech therapist address common age-related health challenges. Additional on-site services include incontinence and ambulatory care, hospice coordination, medication management, and access to nurses, occupational therapists, physical therapists, and a visiting podiatrist. Having these services in one location aims to reduce hospital trips and promote quicker interventions when health needs change.
Residences are set up to balance independence and safety. Floor plans may feature kitchenettes, private decks or patios, wheelchair-accessible showers, and individual climate control, while common areas include outdoor spaces, a central fireplace, and a piano or organ for casual gatherings. Select units provide Wi-Fi, cable or satellite TV, and reserved parking. Because not all apartments contain every feature, prospective residents should review the available layouts during a visit.
Dining is offered throughout the day in a restaurant-style setting, with additional guest meal options for visiting family members. The culinary team prepares menus that accommodate low-sodium, no-sugar, vegan, and international selections, ensuring residents with dietary restrictions can still enjoy varied meals. Flexible meal times allow residents to keep personal schedules without sacrificing nutrition.
Residents have access to a range of amenities designed to encourage engagement and activity. Fitness programs, chair yoga sessions, and a swimming pool support physical health, while the library and computer lounge, activity center, and organized social outings offer cognitive and social stimulation. Raised garden beds, karaoke nights, happy hours, birthday celebrations, dances, live music, and outdoor gathering areas round out the calendar, providing multiple ways for residents to stay involved with peers and the broader community.
