The Hampton in Tumwater, WA is dedicated exclusively to Memory Care and is equipped to support residents living with moderate dementia. The care team is trained to manage wandering behaviors at any time of day and can address common behavioral issues that accompany cognitive decline. Clinical oversight centers on maintaining safety and minimizing agitation, with individualized care plans designed in coordination with families and medical professionals.

A fully secured environment forms the backbone of the safety program, helping prevent exit-seeking and ensuring residents remain in supervised areas. The community maintains a therapy room for on-site rehabilitation or restorative services prescribed by outside clinicians. Staff provide full assistance with bathing, dressing, and toileting, and they offer some physical help at mealtimes when needed. Transfers are supported whether a resident uses a walker, wheelchair, requires standby supervision, or needs a one-person lift.

Apartments are configured for single-resident occupancy, and some include features such as private bathrooms, kitchenettes, basic furnishings, cable service, and regular housekeeping with scheduled laundry. Not every unit includes every feature, so families should confirm availability and pricing for the configuration that best fits their needs. Safety features such as grab bars and emergency call systems complement the Memory Care focus.

Dining follows a set menu prepared to meet nutritional guidelines, with snacks available throughout the day to help manage the smaller, more frequent meals often recommended for dementia care. A private dining room can be reserved for family visits, and the culinary staff can accommodate common diet modifications, including gluten-free and vegetarian options, as ordered by a physician or dietitian.

Residents have access to on-site parking, and the community welcomes pets; it’s a good idea to check with the community during your visit to see if your pet will be allowed. The building is wheelchair accessible and houses a barber and beauty shop, exercise room, movie room, wellness center, library, internet access, and communal gardens. A concierge helps arrange participation in special-interest clubs and schedules transportation, whether via the community’s medical-only shuttle or by coordinating rides with nearby public transit options. On-site religious services are offered for those who wish to attend.
