About Us

A Home Built on Trust & Compassion

Shalom Adult Family Home 1 is a licensed residential care home located in Tacoma, Washington. We provide a safe, nurturing environment for seniors who need help with daily activities — particularly those living with dementia or memory-related conditions.

Our home is small by design. With limited capacity, every resident receives individualized attention, a consistent care routine, and the kind of personal relationship that only a true home can offer. We believe that aging with dignity means being seen, heard, and valued — every single day.

Our Approach

Care That Honors the Person, Not Just the Condition

We meet each resident where they are — with patience, consistency, and a deep respect for their life story and personal preferences.

Welcome & Assessment

We begin with a thorough intake conversation — learning about your loved one's history, routines, preferences, and care needs so we can tailor every aspect of their stay.

Personalized Care Plan

A individualized plan is developed and shared with the family, covering medication, meals, activities, and any special requirements — reviewed and adjusted regularly.

Daily Living & Support

From morning routines to evening wind-down, our team provides hands-on assistance with all daily activities in a calm, predictable environment that reduces anxiety.

Ongoing Communication

Families are kept informed through regular updates. We welcome visits, calls, and collaboration — because the best care happens as a partnership.

Family Stories

What Families Have Shared

Hearing from families who have walked this path helps us understand what matters most — and we're grateful for every word.

"We were overwhelmed looking for the right place for my mother. From the first visit, we felt at ease. The staff treats her like family — not just a resident. She's happier here than she's been in years."

— Family Member, Tacoma

"The difference between a facility and a real home is night and day. My dad has his own routine, his own space, and the caregivers actually know his name and his story. It makes all the difference."

— Family Member, Pierce County

"When my mother needed respite care after a hospital stay, this home gave us peace of mind. She was back on her feet faster than expected, and the team kept us informed every step of the way."
