Assisted living and independent living are the two options at Van Mall Retirement in Vancouver, WA. Assisted living keeps the apartment private while staff help with dressing, bathing, and medication. Independent living comes with the apartment and the community’s services, minus any daily care.
Medicaid is on the list of accepted payments. That matters for a family whose savings might run out before the need for care does.
There are 110 beds in studio, one-bedroom, and two-bedroom layouts. Studios hold one person’s living space, while the two-bedroom is the layout for couples or anyone who wants a companion under the same roof. Van Mall Retirement is in the Vancouver Mall neighborhood, and pets are allowed.
Somewhat walkable is how Walk Score grades the area, at 52. Without a car, a resident can still run some errands on foot.
