Queen Anne Healthcare in Seattle operates as a skilled nursing facility, delivering 24-hour nursing-home care to residents who need ongoing medical oversight. Licensed nurses handle wound management, medication administration, and chronic disease monitoring, while the in-house rehabilitation team provides structured physical therapy programs aimed at regaining strength and mobility after illness or surgery. Short-stay respite care is also available, giving family caregivers a break while the resident receives the same round-the-clock clinical attention offered to long-term patients.
Beyond core nursing services, the community coordinates with physicians and other health professionals to manage treatment plans, schedule laboratory work, and arrange specialist visits when required. A dedicated care team reviews each resident’s progress, adjusts therapy goals, and ensures smooth transitions between hospital, rehab, and home settings. Emergency response systems and on-site medical equipment support prompt intervention, helping to reduce unnecessary hospital readmissions.
Accommodations include private and semi-private rooms, some of which are pet friendly and have direct access to outdoor areas or gardens. Wi-Fi is available throughout much of the community, and limited parking is provided for residents and guests. Because layouts and features vary, not every room offers the full list of options; prospective residents should verify individual room specifications during a tour.
The culinary staff prepares three daily meals plus snacks, accommodating physician-ordered diets such as low-sodium, gluten-free, kosher, and vegetarian plans. Meals are served in a communal dining area with the option for tray service during recovery periods, and hospice-appropriate nutrition is available on-site when needed. Consistent meal scheduling and adaptive utensils support residents who have swallowing or dexterity challenges.
Residents have access to an activity center where organized programs include bingo, arts and crafts sessions, TV and movie nights, and reading or internet time in the library and computer lounge. These offerings encourage social interaction and cognitive engagement for people with varying mobility and energy levels.
