Harbour Pointe in Mukilteo provides Assisted Living, Independent Living, and a secured Memory Care program. Residents with wandering tendencies—day or night—elopement risk, combative behaviors, or those who stay up all night can be accommodated. The team also manages wound care, oxygen therapy, special diets, and every level of diabetic management from oral medications to sliding-scale insulin. Advanced dementia conditions are accepted, and care plans are adjusted to match changing cognitive or physical needs.

A registered nurse or licensed practical nurse is on staff, with a nurse on call 24 hours for added oversight. All employees complete background checks, and an awake night shift monitors residents, supported by pull-cord alert systems and a fenced rear perimeter. Podiatry visits are handled on site. Help with bathing, dressing, eating, and toileting can be provided at full-assist levels, and staff are trained for walker and wheelchair support, standby or one-person transfers, two-person assists, and full transfers with a Hoyer lift when necessary. An activity director coordinates daily engagement appropriate to each resident’s abilities.

Apartments may include a private bathroom, kitchenette, independent temperature controls, cable, and the option to paint or decorate the space; however, not every unit contains every feature, so it is best to confirm availability. Weekly housekeeping is standard, with personal laundry available in some units or through scheduled laundry services. For Independent Living residents, housekeeping, laundry, and a monthly meal plan are offered, allowing them to focus on a maintenance-free lifestyle while retaining maximal autonomy.

Meals are served from a set menu with snacks available between dining periods, and a private dining room can be reserved for family gatherings. The culinary team supports diet modifications such as gluten-free selections, mechanical-chopped or pureed textures, thickened liquids, vegetarian choices, and other physician-ordered adjustments. Staff monitor intake for residents who need assistance and coordinate closely with nursing to align meals with medication and glucose-testing schedules.

Amenities include resident parking, wheelchair-accessible common areas, a barber and beauty shop, exercise room, movie room, internet access, communal gardens, on-site religious services, concierge support, a library, and several special-interest clubs. Scheduled transportation covers medical appointments, errands, and outings, and the property is close to public transit with shuttle and town-car options for additional flexibility. Pets are allowed; it’s a good idea to check with the community during your visit to see if your pet will be allowed.
