Overview of Wellspring Meadows Assisted Living

Wellspring Meadows Assisted Living is a 32-bed residential community at 9873 North Buttercup Lane in Hayden, Idaho. Administered by Kurt Neely, the facility serves Kootenai County through two houses, Buttercup and Syringa, and has maintained licensure since 2005. The campus provides couples’ suites, private rooms, and semi-private rooms within a secured memory care environment.

State regulatory data from the Idaho Department of Health and Welfare shows a citations-per-inspection rate of 2.7, which is 21% below the Idaho state average. Within the recorded period of 2019 to 2023, historical surveys noted challenges including unreported bruising, inadequate night shift staffing for transfers, and unsecured oxygen cylinders. A July 2023 follow-up survey, the most recent documented, identified deficiencies regarding unlatched memory care gates, a lack of resident activities due to staff vacancies, and improper medication refrigerator temperatures.

Healthcare support is provided 24/7, featuring emergency pull-cord systems and medication management. The clinical model coordinates basic activities of daily living and cognitive support for residents with dementia, though past records noted inconsistencies in RN change-of-condition assessments and psychotropic medication reviews. Medicaid is accepted, providing financial accessibility for eligible seniors in the Coeur d’Alene–Hayden area.

The facility offers a residential-scale setting with three meals prepared daily. Social programming typically includes seasonal celebrations and themed parties, though recent inspections identified a need for more consistent activity leadership during staff transitions. With a Walk Score of 46, the property is centrally located in Hayden, allowing for some pedestrian access to local services.
Interested individuals should contact the Bureau of Facility Standards directly to verify the correction of the 2023 deficiencies regarding memory care gate security and staffing-related activity gaps. During a tour, families should ask for the current activity calendar and verify that the administrator has filled the vacancies previously impacting resident engagement.
