HomePlace Special Care at Burlington
HomePlace Special Care at Burlington offers assisted living and memory care in Burlington, WA. Assisted living includes help with daily tasks such as dressing, bathing, and taking medication while a resident lives in a studio. Memory care provides a secured setting with supervision for someone at risk of wandering, and having both care levels in one community can suit a resident whose needs may grow over time.
There are 46 beds, creating a smaller community where staff and residents get to know each other. Housing includes private and shared studios: a private studio gives one resident a private space, while a shared studio can suit someone who wants a companion in the living space. Pets are allowed, so a resident can keep a pet when moving into the community.
A Walk Score of 53 places the area in the somewhat walkable band. Some errands can be completed on foot, and a resident may be able to handle certain nearby outings without a car. Medicaid is accepted, giving families a payment option when savings may not cover a long stay.
