Memory Care Communities in Richland, WA

"It was an excellent facility. It was conveniently located to where I lived. My father stayed there before he passed away. The service was great. The staff was very caring and professional. The food was also good for him. They did a really good job, I had no complaints."

"We went to Callaway Gardens Alzheimer's Special Care. We liked them. It had a homey feel to it. We originally wanted to put my mom there. The staff came to my house to assess my mom. And when the nurse came to do an assessment, that's when we realized my mother needed to go to the hospital. I left my mom in bed because I wanted the nurse to see how I got her up and how the morning went. My mother had pneumonia and so she couldn't stand, but she wasn't like that the day before. And so I just loved the fact that they were willing to come over and do an assessment and help me through the process of getting her to the hospital. They were amazing because my anxiety went up and they were just wonderful to work with without my mom even being a part of their community. When you walk through Callaway Gardens, you don't smell a nasty odor, and you can tell that it is very clean and kept up right. They have a great staff. I noticed a few nurses there, so I knew that they had their clients covered. And I loved the director. She was just willing to do whatever it took to make sure that my mom was taken care of, and that was even before having her be a part of Callaway Gardens."

"I've been in and out of Tri-Cities Retirement Inn over the past few years because we had relatives there. It's an old facility, but it's clean. The staff was helpful. We had a Thanksgiving meal there. The rooms were homey and comfortable. They had a library, music programs, and an old cars event."

"We checked out Sun Terrace Prosser two years ago. We saw the memory care, as well as the common areas and the cafeteria. The people were nice, and the place was clean. All of these facilities are expensive and depressing, but my mom has to go somewhere, and Sun Terrace Prosser was the best of all of them. It's adequate, and I think it's the best place for my mom. This is also the best location for us because it's in between where I live and where my brother lives. They answered every question that I asked, and they're going above and beyond to work with us. I've already made a deposit on a room, and they're holding it for me. I had to call them up and tell them that it's not fair for them to hold that room because we're having some problems moving her in, and I don't know how long this is going to take. I said, "If somebody else wants that room, let them have it," and they said they're going to hang on to my deposit and put it on hold, so they've bent over backwards to get my mom in there anyhow."

"The concept is just different at Guardian Angel Homes. The homes are beautiful, spacious, and clean. Each suite has a private bathroom. The caregivers actually care."

"I had an in-person tour of Rosetta Pasco. The staff was very friendly. The residents there seemed very happy and content, and that was a big deciding factor. They had individual rooms. It's a new building, well appointed, and set up really well for the residents. The security measures seem very good for memory care patients, and I really like that. They had enclosed spaces and walking paths. It's in a nice neighborhood area, so it's a little quieter."
