Adult Day Care Communities in Port Orchard, WA

"I visited Overlake Terrace. The facility director was wonderful. I was impressed. I'd probably give the facility itself a five and up because it was very nice. The memory care portion was a little bit dull and dreary looking, but the non-memory care looked very nice and inviting. I would advise that they do something about the memory care level. It looked like a prison. They need to either bring more light in or color or just something very vibrant. It's all in one building. I did find the apartments much smaller than what they have at the other place, but they're decent and it would suffice. The facility was very clean, well taken care of, and roomy, and they have a lot of amenities to offer the residents. They have a library and a huge, beautiful dining room. They also said that if the residents do not like the food, the chef will go all out to make some adaptations for them because they know the importance of having good meals and a good experience for the residents. They have a mini movie theater so residents can enjoy films with a true movie theater type of experience. They have bingo. They had a piano or two so people could play. They have a huge crafts room and an exercise room."

"I encountered Legacy House when I was looking for a facility in which I could gain some experience for volunteering and to get a feel as to what the duties of an OTA, the occupation I am interested in, entailed. I managed to secure and obtain a position in which I could carefully observe and participate under the eye of a licensed OT through my aunt who worked as a human resources manager for the center previously. One thing I noticed was the kind and attentive patient care issued to all residents and the cleanliness. The state of the facility spoke for itself and there could be no complaints as to it's cleanliness. Seniors were allowed to participate in many different planned activities such as bingo, rehabilitative exercise, art projects such as decoupage. One thing however I must note is the obvious need for more staff. Other than that this facility is top notch. Residents are obviously well cared for and the staff is well loved noting from the genuine smiles and greetings every one of them gets. Anyone looking for a great care center in Seattle should consider Legacy House. "

"Horizon House is a big place. They have two buildings that are 19 story-apartment and another smaller one. The assisted living and the skilled nursing facilities are also nearby. It's very convenient so if either of us would go into assisted living, we can still be near each other. The rooms were very nice. Our apartment has a full kitchen, so I can also cook. But we also get a credit in the dining room which we can use in any way we want. It has excellent facilities for exercise, a pool, a clinic and so many services. They take you shopping to the grocery stores three times a week. The staff were very nice, very pleasant and helpful. They had really more of what we wanted and we will move there in a couple of months. "

"My mother stayed at the Caroline Kline Galland Home in a transitional care unit, so it was a little different than the regular nursing home for long-term care. It was skilled nursing, so they took fine care of her. They had plenty of activities there. I had a mother-in-law who stayed there for eight years in the memory care unit. It is a perfectly good nursing home. They offer all kinds of activities like games, entertainment, and sing-alongs. The food was fine. It’s kosher food because it is a Jewish home. "

"Center for my mother. she loves it. "

"We love full life for our thirty something son with developmental delays and physical handicaps. He gets wonderful attention there for nursing and OT. H also gets his mental health care there. In addition to all these health services, he participates in activities to stimulate his mind. The staff are caring and do a terrific job. "
