Assisted Living Communities in Kenmore, WA

"Northgate Plaza was lovely and yet not overdone. It's a relatively urban setting, but the grounds were lovely. They had flower beds and such. I thought how nice it was going to be to watch those flowers through the year instead of just concrete or urban scenery. It was very nicely done. It was not as luxurious as some of the others, but it was delightful and very comfortable. I saw three different layouts of rooms and I saw the effort of the person working with me. You could tell she was thinking about what she had heard me say and then was trying to match different room layouts as to how she understood that, which I really appreciated. The staff was delightful, friendly, and genuine. The food was good."

"I went to Cogir of Edmonds Assisted Living & Memory Care. The facility was very nice. We didn't partake in the food, but it smelled fantastic. We saw the menus they have for their everyday meals, and they all had special meals if you needed them. I'm diabetic, so she said, "Oh, well, we can accommodate you. Sure. All you have to do when you come in is tell us what you want and you've got it." The staff was terrific. They were all friendly and they showed us around. They kept asking us questions about what I needed. They said they can accommodate me. It was just wonderful. I love the facility."

"I chose GenCare Lynwood at Scriber Gardens because it was very affordable and seemed like a good place to be. I've been here for about two months now. The food is excellent and I'm very happy with that. The staff has been very accommodating. I recently moved from an original room to a better one and it's got everything I could possibly ask for as far as the places to live. "

At Emerald City Senior Living, our community's culture is built on helping our residents find their happiest, healthiest selves. After hearing from multiple new residents that they were concerned about getting involved and making new friends, we formed a resident ambassador program, which pairs each new resident with an ambassador who helps them acclimate to Emerald City, engage in activities and events, and volunteer in the local community. A lot of our residents want to stay active, even during the dreary, rainy, Seattle winters, so we formed an indoor walking club and indoor gardening club, so they can appreciate the outside, inside. We also noticed that a lot of our residents were traveling to doctor's appointments and therapy visits, so now we're proud to offer a visiting physician service along with an in-house, on-site therapy facility, so our residents can get the care they need, right here, at home.In short, when our residents talk, we listen. If you or a loved one are looking for a senior living community where residents are respected and heard, we'd love to meet you.

"My grandmother lives at the Aegis of Lynnwood. They have a courtyard with all grassy areas and a garden. I've been to their outdoor area to visit her most recently during COVID, and it was very nice. The staff members are doing a fine job. She has a very nice room, but she's almost 100, so she had to downsize to a studio. She used to have a room off of the courtyard. She had a patio that went out into their center courtyard area, and it was very nice. They have lots of activities, they post pictures, and they communicate with the families very well."

We look forward to caring for you or a loved one. Rest assured that every amenity we offer was created to meet your unique needs, whether they exist now or develop over time. Your peace of mind is our most important priority, and we endeavor to provide all the comforts of home for you or your loved one.

"Sunrise of Edmonds was very nice and very clean. I had a very good feeling overall about the place. Wendy was very professional and very thorough in her tour and information about the facility. The studio was nice but small. They only had those available at the time, but they also had one and two bedrooms. They talked a lot about the outings that they take their vans to. They had a lot of field trips. They also had different classes available in-house. So, if people want to take an art class, they could."

"Mom just moved to Empress Senior Living at Laurelhurst Assisted Living and Memory Care. It's a facility that was just built a few years ago, and their staff is wonderful. I spent many, many days there with my mom. They are very professional and good. The food was very good, too. In memory care, there are a lot of people who are not very high-functioning, so they don't do a whole lot of activities, but the value for the money is pretty good. It costs $6,600 a month to be in that facility, and then there are additional costs on top of that, but I think for what I looked at all over, their cost was about the same as others. I was so lucky to find that place. They had space available, and they were able to get me in. It wasn't out of reach cost for me."

"We are so grateful for Cogir Kirkland! My mom has lived there for 3 months, and it's such a relief to know she is safe and well cared for. The community is only a year old--it's beautiful, light, and well-maintained, plus the rooms are very large. And surprisingly, the food is great! But the very best part is the staff! They are very skilled and professional, while also being super kind and caring. My mom is at the end of life, and can be "difficult" on top of it. Each staff member works extra hard to ensure she is heard; that she has everything she needs; and that she is comfortable and happy. Cogir Kirkland has a new General Manager that has been successful in implementing new systems and processes, and in building a strong and committed team. We are so happy to have them as part of our family!"

"I toured Edmonds Landing and it definitely was a very old building, and much smaller. The staff was wonderful, the one who did the tour, and they made sure we were introduced to people. The rooms were pretty small. They were like in the low 300 square feet. We had a little tea sort of thing and dessert. They said they had a little bistro area, for lack of a better term. From the discussion, they had lots of activities and they were well-timed. They have people come in and play music. This was towards the end of our looking, and by this time I'm realizing that my mother-in-law, who's 89 and a half years old, is a heck of a walker. She doesn't use a cane or a walker, and she will go. She's extremely physically fit, with just her dementia and her cognitive issues. We were concerned about that, and they said we could get her like a watch that has an identifier where she is. I thought the place was nice enough and the room was nice enough. It was not at all decorated in my style, but it was something she would like. But we were more and more concerned about her leaving. In the end, it just wasn't the right place for her, and I didn't pursue it."

"I visited Cogir of Mill Creek. They have independent living and assisted living. If it wasn't for the cottage at the other place, I would've chosen Cogir over all of the others. We were very impressed with the relationship of the people. They treated us nicely. The rooms were larger than any other place we went to and for us, that was a real plus. You have a lot of food choices. I like the fact that you have a regular menu and you have an alternate menu. You have a choice of a lot of different things. The people were friendly. It's family-owned. Even though it's large, the setting is good. They have an indoor section that you can step outside and I like that they're pet-friendly. The cost was a little higher, but I think it was worth it."

"I went to tour Peters Creek Retirement, Assisted Living & Memory Care. The receptionist was very friendly and very encouraging. The gentleman was open to answering any questions and said, "Let me take you on a tour." He showed me where the craft room was. They played games there. They had paid attention to the things I said my sister was interested in when I spoke with the other gentleman on the phone a few days earlier. She likes adult coloring, puzzles, and playing games, and so the staff showed me all those. He told me about the library, and he took me upstairs and showed me a room. There were two rooms, and it had a mini kitchen and eating area between the two. My sister would have had no roommate, and she would have has a bathroom that is not across the building like she has where she is now. I asked if they were set up for a TV already, and the staff said yes. I asked if they were set up for a computer, and he also said yes. The room I looked at had a mini balcony, but you couldn't open a window or a door to get out of there. It was for the view, and the view was lovely. It's completely wooded with a creek in the back. What I saw at Peters Creek Retirement was great. They have a paved walkway all the way around outside. They have an elevator for my sister to get to the room, which is good because she has a knee issue. They have a patio outside. Everything I saw was neat and clean, and flyers were available for you to help yourselves with."

"Ascent Adult Family Home LLC was clean. They had a locked closet that you had to have a code to get into for the medications. The lady showed me around and she was just very nice and friendly. They were going to be getting the room ready (it wasn't ready yet) for my sister. They have to do an assessment first, so she would work with me on my sister. It's a home. From the second floor, getting to the yard in the back would be difficult for the people, but they've got a deck in the summer where people can go out onto and they have two of them. One had raised beds around the whole perimeter so that people could do gardening in it. It was comfortable-looking and it just seemed very nice. The lady I met was the owner. She lived downstairs. She was very personable and caring. They just didn't have a lot of parking, because it's in a neighborhood. So, their parking was not very good to go and visit."

"I like Redmond Heights Senior Living's location. I like that you're able to have your own room, and I like the fact that they had activities for the patient to mingle and socialize with their peers. It's close to where we live. The staff that showed me around was very friendly. He took the time with me, and I appreciated that. The building was very clean, and the structure seemed like it was fairly new, maybe two to three years old. It has had some renovations. They had a nice sun porch. The rooms were big. Some of them were a little bit too big, but I thought it was very spacious. You could bring in your own furniture as well as already furnished. I thought that was nice."
