Staying Safe and Cool During Seattle’s Rising Temperatures
Temperatures are expected to rise in Seattle over the next several days, with forecasts predicting that by Monday we may see temperatures reach 90 degrees or higher. As warmer weather arrives, we want to remind all residents to take extra care, stay cool, and pay close attention to hydration. Older adults can be especially vulnerable during periods of high heat, and dehydration can happen more quickly than many people realize. Please remember to drink water throughout the day

Spring Color Shines at the Japanese Garden
A cool, overcast day created the perfect backdrop for a beautiful visit to the Japanese Garden. Sometimes, a gray Seattle sky has a way of making spring colors feel even more vibrant, and on this visit, the garden seemed to glow. The azaleas were in full bloom, filling the landscape with rich, electric color against the soft light of the day. The wisteria added its own beauty as well, with delicate blooms bringing another layer of texture, color, and quiet elegance to the gar


Thursday Grocery Trips Help Keep Residents Independent
At Northaven, Thursday grocery trips are more than a ride to the store, they are a helpful weekly routine that residents can count on.

Throughout the month, the schedule also includes a little variety, with trips to places like PCC, Town & Country Market, the QFC and Dollar Store on 145th, and Fred Meyer in Greenwood. When there is a fifth Thursd
