About Beehive Homes of Kanab
Beehive Homes of Kanab is a sixteen-bedroom residential assisted-living home at 1364 South Powell Drive in Kanab, Utah, anchoring one of the few household-scale senior-care addresses inside Kane County. Kanab sits along U.S. Highway 89 in south-central Utah between Zion to the west and Bryce Canyon to the north, with the Vermilion Cliffs visible to the south, and the property sits in a quiet residential block a short drive from the town core.
The operating model runs as a single shared household with sixteen private bedrooms, rather than as wings or units. Caregivers cover bathing, dressing, transferring, medication, and meal support around the clock, and because the resident count stays under twenty, the team knows each resident's daily pattern personally rather than working from a unit-wide schedule. The state license covers assisted living, with no separately operating memory-care wing.
The household format accommodates dementia residents within the assisted-living scope when behaviors stay manageable in a residential setting. Meals come from the property's own kitchen three times daily, snacks stay accessible throughout, and activity programming gets calibrated to whoever's actually in residence in a given month. Family events, seasonal celebrations, and occasional outings inside Kanab fill out the weekly cadence.
The dining area doubles as the social anchor of the day, common rooms operate as a shared family-style space, and the residential character of the building keeps the daily atmosphere closer to home life than to facility life. The financial model is private-pay only, without an active Medicaid contract. The actual monthly rate gets calculated from each resident's care plan and the prevailing rate sheet, walked through with your senior advisor.
Live-in pets are not part of the housing arrangement. Kane County Hospital handles routine and emergency care for Kanab itself, while higher-acuity medical needs typically route to Dixie Regional Medical Center in St. George, roughly 1.5 hours west. Visiting family members coming in from outside the region often combine their stay with a Zion or Bryce trip, putting the property in a part of Utah where the visit-and-vacation overlap is part of the family experience.
The neighborhood around Powell Drive is quiet, residential, and walkable. The property operates under the Beehive Homes franchise name. Started in Idaho in 1987, the brand now runs more than two hundred residential homes nationwide, with shared baselines for caregiver training, dietary planning, and resident-to-staff ratio targets each location holds. The Kanab building stays at the original 16-bed format the franchise was built around, and the south-central-Utah setting is what gives this Beehive Homes location its distinct identity in the broader Utah lineup.
Environment
Sixteen private bedrooms inside a residential structure on Powell Drive, common rooms operating as the household's main living spaces, with Kanab's small-town quiet right outside the door.
Services
Caregiving runs continuously across each shift: personal hygiene help, transfer assistance, medications, and meal coordination. The property offers assisted living without a separately operating memory-care wing.
Resident Experience
Living here means being one of sixteen, with the daily team learning each resident's habits and preferences personally. The household routine tends to stabilize new residents quickly once they settle in.
