Overview of The Gables of Pocatello Memory Care

The Gables of Pocatello Memory Care is an assisted living and memory care home on South Bannock Highway in Pocatello, Idaho, less than a mile from the city center. It is operated by Gables Holdings, LLC and administered by Foster Joyce. The home has been in operation for 13 years, giving it a long track record in the Pocatello area. It accepts Medicaid, which opens a coverage pathway for families working through the cost of long-term care.

With 16 secured beds, this is a small residence rather than a large campus. That scale tends to mean quieter common areas and closer familiarity between caregivers and residents, which many families weigh heavily when memory loss is part of the picture. All of the units are secured, so the setting is built around residents who benefit from a protected environment.

Memory care is the center of what the home does. The program is built around home-like living spaces and a schedule of memory care activities and day programs designed for residents living with memory impairment. Caregivers are trained in dementia and Alzheimer’s care, and outdoor areas give residents a place to spend time in the open air.

State inspections by the Idaho Department of Health and Welfare have focused largely on operational and safety systems, including medication handling and storage practices, staff screening documentation, and physical safety features of the building. Families touring the home may want to ask how those systems are managed day to day.

The neighborhood scores 32 out of 100 for walkability, so most errands and appointments involve a short drive. For visiting family, the location just off the highway and close to the city center keeps trips straightforward.

Frequently Asked Questions about Assisted Living in Idaho

What's the difference between assisted living and memory care in Idaho?

Assisted living in Idaho supports residents with daily activities (bathing, dressing, medication management) while preserving independence. Memory care is a specialized form of assisted living for residents living with Alzheimer's or dementia, and adds 24/7 secured environments, dementia-trained staff, and structured routines designed to reduce confusion and wandering.

What's the difference between assisted living and a nursing home in Idaho?

Assisted living in Idaho is a residential model focused on housing, hospitality, and help with daily activities. Nursing homes (skilled nursing facilities) provide 24/7 medical care from licensed nurses for residents with significant health needs, and are regulated more strictly under both state and federal CMS rules.

Does Idaho Medicaid cover assisted living?

Idaho Medicaid does not directly pay room-and-board for assisted living, but most states (including Idaho) offer Home and Community-Based Services (HCBS) waivers that can offset the cost of care services delivered inside a licensed community. Eligibility, waitlists, and covered services vary — check directly with the state Medicaid agency.

What is assisted living?

Assisted living combines private or semi-private apartments with help on activities of daily living (meals, bathing, dressing, medication management) and a social calendar — for residents who need some support but do not need 24/7 medical care.

How many assisted living facilities are listed on this page?

This page features 119 assisted living facilities in Idaho. Use the filters and comparison tools above to compare ratings, amenities, and pricing.

How do I choose the right assisted living facility in Idaho?

Start by matching the level of care offered to the resident's current and anticipated needs, then compare licensing status, staff-to-resident ratios, recent inspection results, and pricing. Tour at least two or three communities in Idaho, talk to current residents and families, and confirm what is included in the base rate versus billed as add-on services.

What should I look for when visiting assisted living facilities in Idaho?

Pay attention to staff interactions with residents, cleanliness and odor, food quality at meal times, the activity calendar, and how questions about pricing and care plans are answered. Ask to see the most recent state inspection report, the move-out / level-of-care-change policy, and a sample monthly bill that lists every fee.
