Rose Park Manor, RN is an assisted living facility situated in Kenmore, Washington—a quiet, residential suburb located just north of Seattle, known for its proximity to the scenic northern shore of Lake Washington. Licensed by the Washington State Department of Social and Health Services, Rose Park Manor offers a small, home-like setting, accommodating up to six residents, which allows for a more personalized approach to care compared to larger communities in the area.
The facility provides comprehensive support with activities of daily living, including full assistance with bathing, eating, dressing, and toileting. Residents benefit from individualized care plans tailored to their unique needs and preferences, and medication management is also included as part of the standard care services. The home is equipped with safety features such as wheelchair-accessible entrances and bathrooms, and a 24-hour awake staff ensures continuous supervision and prompt response to residents’ needs.
Reviews from residents and families indicate that Rose Park Manor provides a physically well-maintained environment and ensures the consistent provision of basic patient care needs. The interior of the facility is described as clean, tidy, and comfortable, with a cozy living area that fosters a sense of community among residents. The owners, Dorina and her husband, are often recognized for their warm and genuine presence, contributing positively when they are available on-site. Families often mention their attentiveness and willingness to communicate openly about residents' care and well-being.
Most daily care tasks, however, are managed by another caregiver, Rado, whose approach is described as emotionally distant and lacking in compassionate engagement, leading to significant concerns for residents who place a high value on emotional support and interpersonal warmth. This aspect has been cited in online reviews and feedback, underscoring the importance of fostering a more emotionally supportive environment for residents who may be especially vulnerable to feelings of isolation or loneliness.
Amenities at the facility are limited, with cable television not provided, which families mention as a minor drawback. The home features private and semi-private rooms, each furnished and designed to accommodate personal belongings, but lacks additional recreational facilities such as a fitness room or organized transportation services. Meals are home-cooked and adapted to meet dietary restrictions, and there is an outdoor patio and garden area where residents can enjoy fresh air and light gardening activities. Social and recreational programming is modest, generally consisting of informal activities such as reading, board games, and occasional group celebrations for birthdays and holidays.
While essential physical care standards are met, feedback consistently highlights the importance of emotional care and human connection as areas needing improvement at Rose Park Manor. The facility’s small size and residential character offer a sense of intimacy and safety, but families stress the need for greater engagement and a more compassionate approach from all caregivers to ensure residents’ overall well-being and satisfaction.
