Archstone in Renton is a residential care home that concentrates on delivering medical support for residents with complex health profiles. The team is equipped to manage residents who wander at any hour, present elopement risks, show combative or other behavioral concerns, stay awake through the night, or live with advanced dementia. Skilled staff handle wound care, oxygen therapy, and a full spectrum of diabetic management—including oral medications, injections, and sliding-scale insulin—while also accommodating physician-ordered special diets.
Clinical oversight and safety protocols are reinforced by an RN or LPN on site, a nurse on call 24 hours a day, an awake night shift, and continuous security coverage. The building has a fenced rear yard, alarmed doors, and a PERS system that routes alerts directly to staff. On-site podiatry visits reduce the need for outside appointments. Caregivers provide full assistance with bathing, eating, dressing, and toileting, and can perform transfers ranging from simple standby support to two-person or full Hoyer lifts for bed-bound residents.
Private and semi-private rooms are available, and some accommodations include cable service for personal entertainment. Families should confirm individual room features during a tour because not every unit offers the same amenities.
Meals are served from a set menu that follows physician and dietitian recommendations. Between scheduled meals, snacks are always on hand, and staff manage texture changes, calorie adjustments, and other diet modifications to meet clinical or cultural needs.
The residence is wheelchair accessible, offers internet access for residents and visitors, and benefits from having the RN owner living on-site, which adds another layer of clinical oversight and availability.
