Timber Ridge is a fully licensed residential care facility serving Humboldt County. Timber Ridge is designed to encourage and support residents to lead independent lives, while providing necessary assistance with activities of daily living. Residents are not “patients” but members of a residential community who enjoy the comforts of a caring environment.
Shared suites including three meals per day start at just $3,765 per month. When comparing facilities for your loved one, keep in mind that many of our services are included in our base rate at Timber Ridge (see our Amenities and Services information sheet). A note of caution: Many facilities will quote a monthly rate to potential residents then charge extra for daily services. We believe it is more realistic to accept that residents are here because they need some assistance and therefore many of our services are included in the monthly rate.
