182 Residential Care Homes near University Place, WA

Last Updated: 11/16/24

Residential care homes in University Place may appeal to seniors who value smaller, more close-knit communities and many opportunities for socialization. University Place care homes typically take in fewer residents, meaning older adults know each resident in the home and develop strong friendships.

Older-adult care homes vary more than other options for senior living in University Place, so families can choose from a wide range of prices, amenities, and services. A Place for Mom will work with you to understand the cost of care homes. From there, we’ll help you find the right fit, whether you’re staying on a budget or searching for luxury retirement communities.

Evergreen Senior Care in Seattle, WA
4.0

I like the care that my grandmother is getting in this community.We like that it is very clean. We wanted a smaller community for her. The staff is very nice and caring. The meals are very good and she is happy with the variety. She does stay involved with activities. She likes that they do take small trips. We would recommend this community to other families.

All home care facilities cost too much. I gave a 4 for overall experience because it is a new business still trying to work out some details. The owner of Joyous Care is very new and still learning the ropes. However, she learns quickly and is doing an outstanding job. She is caring, very conscientious, patient, and compassionate.

Hallelujah Adult Family Home in Kent, WA
5.0

We were so happy to find Hallelujah AFH for our mom. After suffering a fall and very poor progress at a nursing home for rehab, it was clear Mom could not return home. We met with staff at Hallelujah AFH and made an instant connection. My mom, who is very slow to warm to anyone has already decided that she wants to hire their staff for herself should she be able to go home. They’ve made a real effort to get to know her, tailor a personal care plan that meets her needs and made the transition of moving as easy as possible. In my mom’s case she was completely lost at the rehab facility, she was confused, barely eating and too tired to participate in any physical therapy. She’s been with Hallelujah for just 3 weeks and the root cause of these issues was finally identified and now she’s able to focus on healing from her fall. The staff is very kind, attentive and make their place really feel like a home. My husband and I actually rest easily each night knowing she’s in such good hands!

Discover the many ways to pay for senior living

Planning ahead can better position you to make good choices for your loved one’s care in the future. But if your aging family member needs care now, there are ways to finance the cost of long-term care through a combination of approaches.

What are care homes?

Residential care homes are houses in residential neighborhoods that are equipped, adapted, and staffed to care for a small number of residents, usually between two and 10. Like assisted living communities, staff at care homes typically help residents with activities of daily living, including bathing, dressing, and medication management. Although residential care homes vary significantly depending on the community, services usually include:

  • Help with personal care
  • Medication management
  • Mobility assistance
  • Nutritious meals
  • Social activities and outings
  • Housekeeping
  • Laundry
