Comfort, Companionship, and Assistance for Better Senior Living
Bellevue Elderly Care provides a supportive residential setting where older adults can receive assistance with daily routines, personal needs, companionship, and ongoing supervision. Families exploring senior living in Bellevue, Washington, can consider a care environment that combines household comfort with dependable support based on each resident’s abilities, routines, and level of assistance required.
Elderly Companionship and Conversation The family will be happy to know that their parents have someone to talk to and will not feel lonely in their elderly age.
Provide Alzheimer’s Care The family will feel at ease knowing that their parents are in good hands and are with a staff that is familiar with this disease. They will be educated on how this disease progresses, and they will know what to expect.
Provide Dementia Care There is someone there 24/7 making sure that the residents don’t do anything dangerous to themselves or others. We are there to take care of them in times of confusion and loneliness.
Incontinence Care We make sure our residents are always clean and dry. Undergarments are clean and changed every day, keeping residents’ self-esteem up and comfortable.
Meal Preparation Everyone loves a nice home-cooked meal. Bellevue Elderly Care prepares breakfast, lunch, and dinner every day. We even have snacks. We will honor and respect any diet a resident may have.
Assistance with Eating Sitting down next to the resident when feeding and taking the time to finish their meals. That way, the resident does not feel uncomfortable or rushed to finish. We will make sure the food stays warm and will reheat it when needed.
Medication Reminders Making sure that medication is taken is a very important job. Medication is logged and documented so that there is no confusion about whether it was taken or not.
Bathing For a resident or any person, it can be a little difficult or even embarrassing to let someone bathe you. We will encourage the resident to do all they can on their own and stand by to assist to pick up the rest, making sure the resident is clean. If the resident can’t and needs all the assistance, we will be there to provide full assistance with cleaning.
Trips to the Doctor When you have a full-time job, kids, and other activities during the day, it is hard to stop everything to take your mom or dad to the doctor. Trips to the doctor will be provided when needed if that is what the family wants.
Activities(Bingo, Board Games, Movie Night, Puzzles, Etc.) Having activities will keep everyone sharp and happy. No one will feel left out or lonely.
Laundry Having clean clothes every day and not worrying about washing them yourself is wonderful.
Cleaning The home will always be clean and organized at all times. Making sure residents are clean and happy.
Morning & Night Routines(Brushing Teeth, Changing Etc.) Those everyday activities that we do in the morning and at night are hard for someone who can’t hold a toothbrush. Or changing clothes when your arms are stiff. With a staff that is gentle and guiding, these daily routines will be just as easy as when you were young.
Internet/Cable/TV No extra fees for services like cable and TV. If the family comes to visit and wants to Skype with a distant relative, like a grandson, all the necessary equipment is provided. Having that connection even at long distances will make everyone happy and warm.
Hospice Care When someone is at the end of the road, you want to make sure everything is done to make those last days, months, years as comfortable as possible. If the family wants to come and spend the night with their family, that is allowed and is welcome. We provide sleeping arrangements in the same room as the resident or a separate room for the night.
Prices for care are dependent on the level of care needed. Examples would be: is the client ambulatory? Able to walk with a walker or bound to a wheelchair? Does the client have dementia or Alzheimer’s? Does the client wake up at night or sleep through it? Are they able to feed themselves or bathe by themselves? These are all factors that go into the pricing. Our home will be fully designed for the elderly to live comfortably and have all the amenities needed. The starting price is from $5,000 a month to $9,000 a month.
Customers
Our target customer is the family members of an elderly person. Usually, by the time someone is looking for a place like ours, the family is already making decisions for them. The resident is often living with their children, and their children do not have the time or expertise to take care of an elderly person (their mother or father). The kids who make the decisions for their parents are between 30 and 65 years old. They are usually, but not limited to, the greater Seattle area. Everyone wants to have their parents in a home where they are close enough to come by and visit; they could be sons or daughters or even grandchildren; they come from many social classes and occupations and all levels of education. All family members are welcome and encouraged to come and visit their loved ones whenever they want. Everyone can have a family member who can benefit from our care at Bellevue Elderly Care.
