About Edmonds Villa Adult Family Home
A licensed high-acuity adult family home dedicated to providing specialized care with warmth, dignity, and medical excellence in Edmonds, Washington.
Our Mission
At Edmonds Villa, our mission is simple: to provide the highest quality specialized care for adults with complex medical needs while maintaining the warmth, dignity, and personal attention of a true home environment. We believe that even patients requiring significant medical support deserve to live in a place that feels like home, not an institution.
We founded Edmonds Villa because we saw too many families struggling to find appropriate care for loved ones with high-acuity needs. Traditional assisted living facilities often couldn't accommodate specialized equipment or provide the level of medical oversight required. Meanwhile, nursing homes, while medically capable, often felt cold and impersonal. We created Edmonds Villa to bridge this gap—combining skilled nursing capabilities with the intimacy of a 6-bed home.
Our Approach to Care
Every resident at Edmonds Villa receives an individualized care plan developed using the Comprehensive Assessment Reporting Evaluation (CARE) framework. This evidence-based approach ensures we understand not just your loved one's medical conditions, but their personal preferences, daily routines, and quality of life goals.
Our care philosophy centers on several core principles:
- Person-Centered Care: We see the person first, not their diagnosis. Care plans reflect individual preferences, routines, and goals.
- Medical Excellence: Our staff receives training beyond state requirements, with specialization in high-acuity conditions.
- Family Partnership: We view families as essential members of the care team and encourage active involvement.
- Dignity and Respect: Every interaction, from personal care to medical procedures, is conducted with respect for our residents' autonomy and dignity.
- Continuous Improvement: We regularly evaluate our care practices and incorporate the latest evidence-based approaches.
Our Team
The quality of any care facility ultimately comes down to its people. At Edmonds Villa, we've assembled a team of dedicated caregivers who share our commitment to excellence in high-acuity care.
Our staff includes licensed nurses (RN and LPN) who provide medical oversight, medication administration, wound care, and vital signs monitoring. Our certified nursing assistants handle daily care needs with compassion and skill. All team members receive specialized training in the conditions we treat, from proper bariatric transfer techniques to dialysis care protocols to dementia behavior management.
According to the Washington State DSHS, adult family home providers and caregivers must meet specific training requirements. At Edmonds Villa, we exceed these requirements with additional certifications and ongoing education. Our commitment to professional development ensures our team stays current with best practices in high-acuity care.
Our Facility
