Have you heard of 'hygge' ☕? Hygge, (hyg·ge) pronounced "hoo-ga" is a Danish and Norwegian concept that emphasizes creating a cozy, contented feeling of well-being through simple things like good food, warm atmospheres, and quality time with loved ones. We're all about that! From warm decor and lighting, to cozy spaces for relaxing, McKinley Care Assisted Living makes winter not just bearable, but beautiful!

Lights not lighting? Need a picture hung on the wall? McKinley Care Assisted Living employs a full-time maintenance supervisor who is responsible for the safety and well-being of everyone within the physical aspects of the facility, including resident apartments. From top to bottom, the operations of our building fall under the expertise of the maintenance department, and they're just a phone call away. If you have a maintenance issue that requires the assistance of a staff member, please call the McKinley Care switchboard at 907-268-6576 and tell the receptionist you have a maintenance need. All maintenance requests are added to our maintenance log, where we track each project through to completion.

The term "care coordinator" is often heard around our community, but many people are unfamiliar with what this person does.

A care coordinator:
1. Helps elders and/or people with disabilities find and access services available in Alaska
2. Knows how to navigate and apply for the ever-changing community resource paperwork, particularly the state's Home and Community Services Medicaid Waiver program
3. Is a great option for those without a loved one or friend to help find services, especially if family is out of state
4. Can find help with meal delivery, assisted living or nursing home options, medical equipment and supplies, and financial and legal services, among other tasks.
