Chehalis West Assisted Living, founded by William (Bill) and Ella Hammond, opened its doors in 1985. Bill, having been in the health care industry for a number of years in various capacities desired to open a care facility that provides personal care services for seniors who need assistance, social support, and a safe environment in which to live. Chehalis West was the first licensed assisted living facility to open in this area. Bill, who has over 35 years experience in the health care industry, is very involved in the day to day operations of Chehalis West. His passion and dedication for caring for the elderly is clearly seen on any given day as he passes through the halls of Chehalis West chatting with the residents, rarely is he able to get by without being asked for a hug or two along the way. Bill’s own mother, after what was supposed to be just a short stay while Bill was on vacation, decided Chehalis West was the place to call home, and quickly moved in.
