Greenlake Senior Living Gig Harbor is dedicated exclusively to Memory Care and is equipped to serve residents with a wide range of cognitive and medical needs. The community is prepared to assist individuals who wander during the day or night, have a history of elopement, exhibit combative or other behavioral issues, stay up all night, or require wound care. Staff members monitor and respond to special diets as well as diabetes management for residents on oral medications or insulin injections. Services extend to those living with advanced dementia, ensuring consistent oversight and intervention tailored to each stage of the condition.
Safety and clinical oversight are reinforced by a secured setting and on-site access to podiatry, dental care, and psychiatric support. Caregivers provide full assistance with bathing, dressing, eating, and toileting, adapting to each resident’s physical abilities. Transfer capabilities range from simple standby help for walkers to full Hoyer-lift support and bed-bound care, ensuring residents remain safely mobile and properly positioned. The goal is constant, structured attention without compromising dignity or personal choice.
Private and semi-private accommodations come furnished, and residents may personalize their space with paint or décor subject to community guidelines. Cable connections allow access to standard television service, and housekeeping and scheduled laundry help keep living areas orderly. Not every room has all available features, so families should confirm specific details during a visit.
Dining options cover three daily meals from a set menu along with an on-order alternative for added choice. Snacks are available throughout the day, and meals can be served either in the common dining room, privately in-room, or in a reserved private dining space for family visits. The kitchen team manages a variety of diets, including gluten-free, vegetarian, mechanical-chopped, puréed, and thickened-liquid plans, working with clinical staff to ensure nutritional requirements are met.
Residents have access to a barber and beauty shop, landscaped communal gardens, a small library, and regular on-site religious services. Transportation services include a scheduled shuttle for medical appointments to help residents reach local providers safely and on time.
