Tri-Cities Assisted Living and Memory Care in Pasco, Washington, provides three levels of residency: Assisted Living, Independent Living, and a secured Memory Care program. Residents who choose Memory Care live in a locked environment designed to reduce wandering risks while still allowing safe movement throughout common areas. The assisted living option supports adults who need help with everyday tasks but do not require continuous nursing, and independent living is suited for those who remain largely self-reliant but prefer the convenience of on-site services while aging in place.
Medical coverage is broad. Diabetes management, medication administration, respite or short-term stays, and regular physician visits are available. A nurse is on staff, and a speech therapist, occupational therapist, and physical therapist offer scheduled sessions. On-site professionals include a dentist, podiatrist, and hospice team. Memory Care apartments feature layouts intended specifically for residents with cognitive loss, and incontinence and ambulatory support can be arranged. Continuous monitoring and a secured perimeter add an additional safety layer for residents who require it.
Apartments come in several floor plans, and not every unit includes every feature. Options may include wheelchair-accessible showers, kitchenettes for light meal preparation, full air conditioning, and handicap-adapted layouts. Outdoor access is provided through landscaped areas and resident parking, and pets are welcome in designated pet-friendly units. A community piano and organ are available for personal practice or small gatherings.
Meals are prepared by a professional chef and served throughout the day. Residents may choose all-day dining or set mealtimes, and guest meals are offered for visiting family members. Menu choices range from international dishes to more familiar fare, with vegetarian, gluten-free, low- or no-sodium, and no-sugar options. Nutritional support aligns with individual care plans, and all three daily meals plus snacks are included for those who elect the meal program.
Daily life is rounded out by a swimming pool, activity center, library and computer lounge, and paved walking paths. The community schedules clubs and special interest groups, karaoke nights, happy hours, live music, birthday celebrations, dances, and social outings to area attractions. Cognitive programs include Montessori, reminiscence, sensory-based, and intergenerational activities, while raised garden beds and other outdoor spaces support moderate exercise and fresh air.
