Patit Creek Adult Residential Care
Patit Creek Adult Residential Care is a licensed long-term residential care community in Dayton, Washington. Unlike traditional assisted living options, this community specializes in providing care for those with significant behavioral health challenges and developmental disabilities, filling a relatively rare and important niche within the adult residential care landscape of Washington, particularly in Columbia County. The community is certified for eligible Medicaid Services and accepts Medicaid, making it more accessible for families with various incomes. With a 30-bed capacity, the community is currently fully occupied, indicating strong demand and limited availability.
This community provides 24-hour on-site staffing and comprehensive daily support services, including three nutritious meals per day with prescribed options for low-sodium, diabetic, and mechanical soft diets. Other services also include housekeeping, laundry, transportation, medication management, coordinated health care appointments, and intermittent nursing services. End-of-life care is also available. Group activities and social programming are conducted to support engagement in a structured residential setting.
With a total of five inspections, including the most recent inspection on September 19, 2025, which cited deficiencies related to fire and life safety, specifically uncorrected sprinkler head issues and pending state fire marshal building approval, the community’s inspection visits are below the state average. Earlier inspections also revealed similar fire safety maintenance concerns, as well as substantiated complaint findings related to a failure to report an allegation of sexual abuse and resident property theft. While citations were issued, no fines or license suspensions were reported. Families are encouraged to inquire directly about the status of fire safety remediation efforts with the community.
Patit Creek Adult Residential Care is best suited for older adults with behavioral health or developmental disability needs seeking a structured, supportive residential care environment with Medicaid-accepted funding options. Its specialized focus and small size allow for personalized, consistent care.
