Individual Assessments
A licensed/certified Therapeutic Recreation Specialist assesses each resident individually to determine the type of interactions, therapies, and activities that would best meet their needs. This includes a brief psycho/social assessment, including hobbies, interests, spiritual preferences, short-term and long-term goals, support systems and more. It also includes alertness levels, memory issues, social involvement, etc. Therapies are recommended accordingly, such as music therapy, one-on-one visits, laughter therapy, various exercise programs, cooking, gardening and crafts. Re-assessments are made on an ongoing basis and recommendations are adjusted.

Spiritual Care
Marianwood’s Spiritual Care team is skilled at listening to people and supporting all spiritual belief systems. The chaplain is an ordained minister in the Christian tradition and has worked extensively with people from diverse religious backgrounds. For those who need the solace of their own religious leaders, calls will be made and appropriate support sought. Marianwood offers many ecumenical worship services.

Chapel
The Chapel is a place of prayer, solitude and comfort for all who seek a place to be still. It is an expression of the faith, hope and love that is the foundation of all that is Marianwood.
The stained glass window was created by Jill and Robert Hill, local artists who specialize in stained glass. The door, altar, tabernacle, tables, podium, cross, candlesticks, as well as the window and door frames, were all carved by a master artisan, Roberto Tacki. It took nearly two years of woodcarving to complete the pieces.

Resident Council
Providence Marianwood’s Resident Council meets in order to allow residents to make meaningful decisions, guarantee continual improvement of services, and hold the facility accountable to the residents. This is a right guaranteed by OBRA Federal law as follows: "right of residents to organize and participate in groups in the facility."
The residents are the officers and decide which staff attend the monthly meetings. At PMW, residents have asked that recreation and social service staff assist with organizing the meetings and taking minutes. All residents are welcome to attend and are given an agenda and minutes.
Our Resident Council sponsors a monthly popcorn sale and use the proceeds for service projects such as supporting the Snoqualmie tribe food bank or sending donations for tsunami relief. They also sponsor events such as the annual pet food drive for the Humane Society. The Council improves the quality of life for other residents by giving the facility feedback and suggestions related to care, food service and activities. Residents often choose a speaker to inform them of topics of interest, such as having someone from the Ombudsman’s office.
If you would like to obtain more information please call 425-391-2800 and ask for our Social Work department.
