Very troubling experience during my grandmothers last days. They actively and consistently discouraged us from showing any emotion. Limited activities. The leadership/admin staff did not provide the environment that they portrayed. I’m the final days they limited access visits to comfort our grandmother to only when admin staff are available but are consistently under staffed. When we requested more time that are grandmother asked us to stay they were cold. They also had a rule that if you step outside to make a call during your visit (no cell phone coverage inside) that ends the visit.
It is not a place of peace and joy, but a place of waiting for your love one to die in a room alone. There are better options and we made the mistake of choosing this place. It is so sad.

The Arbor at Bremerton only offers memory care. They took wonderful care of my mom, who had Alzheimer's. They were kind and wonderful to her, as well as to my family. They gave her a good end of life care. They were always willing to work with us when things got difficult. The staff was always very quick to let me know what was going on, which I appreciated. Their facility was beautiful too. It was a brand new facility, so it was clean. She was one of the first residents that was there. They had pretty decent activities. For my family, it was a good fit. I just really appreciate them a lot.

My wife is at The Arbor at Bremerton. It seems like a good place, but she's had problems with her medication. They're not doing what they're supposed to. They have activities, and most of the staff members are pretty good. The facility is clean and fairly new, and they have a courtyard. They were playing bingo when I was there.

I visited this facility
The Arbor at Bremerton was very nice, very well kept, and very clean. The staff who accommodated me was extremely nice. She took us on a tour, and it was very helpful. The dining area was very nice, very well maintained, and very clean. We did not observe any activities though.
