Alpha1 Adult Family Home is a single story home in Des Moines, owned and run by a registered nurse. With room for up to six residents, every person is known by name, and a nurse is on site 24 hours a day. The home holds Washington's dementia, mental health and developmental disabilities specialty designations, so the team is trained to support memory loss, changing behaviors and complex daily needs with patience. Residents who need more help are cared for too, with two person and Hoyer lift transfers, diabetic care, nurse delegation and hospice friendly care when the time comes. Days here feel like home. Meals are cooked fresh in the kitchen, there is a garden and patio for quiet time outside, and pets and couples are welcome. Laundry, housekeeping, hair care and rides to appointments are all included, and the home has its own wheelchair vehicle. Alpha1 accepts Medicaid, private pay, long term care insurance, VA benefits and the WA Cares Fund. Reach out to ask about the open room or to plan a visit.
