Plexi-Glass Safety Door for Safe and Comfortable Visiting
October 10th, 2020Our maintenance man Armando worked hard and fast building a see through door to make Winter visits from family and friends comfortable for family members.
This plexiglass door allows family members to enter a vacant apartment where they can be indoors, warm and dry while safely visiting their senior relative(s) who will be on the other side of the door. Everyone on both sides of this visiting door will be warm and dry indoors this Winter while visiting.
Many other facilities don’t have something like this and so visitors must shiver in the rain and cold while visiting through an exterior Window, or they are allowed inside without this level of protection for seniors.
We wanted to make it comfortable for visitors in any weather and keep it fully safe for our seniors. This, along with our other safety measures have been working well. We recently tested everyone and all staff and residents still test negative for COVID.
With the cooperation of visitors we will continue to do everything possible to keep our staff and residents safe. The staff at Somerset Retirement Home and Assisted Living thanks all our wonderful visitors for your cooperation!
Covid testing with love and smiles!
October 10th, 2020After our medical staff were done getting tested themselves, they then tested all other staff and residents with smiles and as much good cheer and fun as possible. We tried to make it as fun as possible for staff and residents while doing a careful job.
Everyone (staff and residents) tested negative! Hooray! Our careful precautions are continuing to work well. So far, no one has got COVID-19 at either of our buildings (Somerset or New Westside Terrace).
We will continue carefully taking precautions and we thank residents’ families and friends for your cooperation with our prevention measures. It is working! Let’s keep it going!
Our goal is for every resident and employee to stay healthy and safe until COVID is over (likely next summer). The cooperation of visitors helps make this possible.
Thank you from Somerset Retirement Home and Assisted Living Longview WA!
September Field Trip to a Kalama WA Park
October 9th, 2020The glorious summer weather in September provided the perfect opportunity for an impromptu trip to the Columbia River near Kalama WA. Our residents enjoyed the chance to stretch their legs. If weather allows, we will try to go out again in with another small group.

Classic Car Show Parade
August 31st, 2020Let’s have fun and help our seniors have fun too. Social distancing and masks are required (if you get out of car or near seniors) to protect our seniors. We appreciate your cooperation and participation.
Please bring your classic car or street rod to Lowe’s parking lot Sept 3rd at 1:15 PM to form a car parade.
The parade will then drive from Lowes to Somerset Retirement Home parking lot at 2025 Tibbetts Drive (near OBHway Dairy Queen and OBHway Fibre Credit Union) to entertain seniors at Somerset.
After entertaining seniors at Somerset, the parade will then drive to New Westside Terrace Retirement Home at 1200 17th Ave (behind 15th Ave Safeway) to entertain seniors at New Westside Terrace.
This activity and your participation are important to our seniors during normal times, and even more important during COVID times because in Summer 2020 our seniors aren’t getting their usual summer field-trips and outings.
Safe outdoor activities with social distancing (and masks required) are essential for keeping our senior’s quality of life as happy as possible during summer 2020 while also keeping them safe from COVID.
You’re making our seniors lives better. Thank you for your participation!
