Riverrock Canyon Adult Family Home

Riverrock Canyon Adult Family Home is a DSHS-licensed adult family home at 3502 71St Ave W in University Place, Pierce County (license #754238), licensed to care for up to 8 residents at a time. Adult family homes sit between independent living and a nursing home: a licensed caregiver looks after a small number of residents in an actual house, providing meals, help with daily tasks, medication management, and round-the-clock supervision in a setting that still feels like home.

Riverrock Canyon Adult Family Home is licensed to care for residents with Alzheimer's and other dementias. The value of an adult family home for memory care is continuity: a stable set of faces, a familiar house, and the kind of one-on-one attention that reduces wandering, sundowning, and the distress of constant change. It is licensed to support residents with mental-health needs. Caregivers are trained to look after adults managing conditions such as depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder, or schizophrenia alongside their daily personal care.
