  • Licensed adult family home, Washington State DSHS
  • Registered nurse oversight with in-house CNAs
  • Experience with tube feeding, trach, IV, and ostomy care

Our Story

Founded on a simple belief

Richmond Beach Open Arms AFH LLC was founded to fill a gap we kept seeing: families with a loved one who needed serious medical support — tube feeding, tracheostomy care, complex medication schedules — but who still deserved to live somewhere that felt like a home, not a ward.

Our mission is straightforward: deliver skilled, attentive nursing care inside a genuinely comfortable house, with private rooms, a backyard, and a team who knows every resident by name.

Our Philosophy

Dignity, privacy, and a personalized hand.

We believe good care starts with truly knowing someone — their history, their preferences, and what makes them feel comfortable. Every care plan is built around the individual, not a one-size-fits-all routine.

  • Dignity first. Every interaction, from bathing to meals, respects each resident's independence and preferences.
  • Real privacy. Private rooms and ensuite bathrooms are non-negotiable, not an upgrade.
  • Personalized assistance. Care plans are written around the person, then adjusted as their needs evolve.

Our Team

Skilled nursing, close at hand.

Our care team combines registered nurse oversight with certified nursing assistants who live the day-to-day rhythm of the home alongside residents.

Registered Nurse Oversight

Clinical oversight of every care plan, medication order, and treatment protocol.

Certified Nursing Assistants

On-site CNAs providing hands-on daily care and companionship.

In-House, Not On-Call

Care staff live the rhythm of the home — no waiting on a visiting agency.

Licensed by Washington State

Fully licensed adult family home operating under WA DSHS regulations.

Facility Overview

The home, room by room.

Private Rooms

Each resident has their own room to furnish and personalize.

Ensuite Bathrooms

Private, accessible bathrooms attached to every bedroom.

Backyard

A real backyard for fresh air, sunshine, and quiet afternoons outdoors.

Safety & Comfort

Watched over, without feeling watched.

Grab bars, accessible layouts, and 24/7 staffing keep residents safe, while thoughtful furnishings and natural light keep the home feeling like one. Emergency protocols and fall-prevention measures run quietly in the background so daily life can stay comfortable and unhurried.

We maintain open lines of communication with each resident's physicians and specialists, so any changes in health are caught early and addressed quickly. Families can rest easy knowing their loved one is being watched over by people who genuinely care — around the clock.
