Golden Sands in Ocean Park, WA delivers assisted living supported by an extensive clinical team. Nurses manage daily health needs and medication schedules, an on-site doctor conducts routine and as-needed evaluations, and licensed therapists provide speech, occupational, and physical therapy without residents having to leave the building. The community is equipped for diabetes monitoring, ambulatory assistance, and incontinence care. A secure, purpose-built neighborhood offers memory care for residents with cognitive decline, and the presence of hospice services allows individuals to remain in familiar surroundings if their needs progress. Podiatry visits and the option for respite or short-term stays further expand the medical safety net.
Daily living support is backed by systems that adjust quickly to changes in condition. Staff assist with bathing, dressing, and mobility, while emergency response features ensure help is available around the clock. The memory care-only environment minimizes confusion and promotes safe wandering, and therapists coordinate with nursing staff to integrate rehabilitation goals into each resident’s routine. Families receive updates on health status, and care plans are revised promptly when new issues arise.
Residences vary in size and layout, and not every unit includes every amenity. Select apartments feature kitchenettes, wheelchair-accessible showers, or private outdoor access, while all have air conditioning, basic Wi-Fi, and handicap-friendly design. Pet-friendly policies mean many residents can bring companion animals, and ample parking and landscaped outdoor areas add convenience for visitors and residents alike.
Meals are prepared on site by a professional chef and are included in the monthly rate. Options extend to international dishes, organic ingredients, low- or no-sodium entrées, and no-sugar desserts to accommodate medical or personal preferences. Residents may invite guests for meals, and those in apartments with kitchenettes can still choose communal dining to enjoy the social atmosphere and staff oversight.
To round out daily life, Golden Sands maintains an activity center, library and computer lounge, scheduled fitness programs, and guided yoga or chair yoga sessions. Outdoor walking paths, a swimming pool, and designated outdoor areas encourage movement and fresh air. Social calendars include happy hours, birthday parties, live music, and organized outings, providing structured opportunities for engagement and community connection.
