    Everything I said in my last review is still true but I have upgraded my review from 3 to 4 stars…read morebased on improved food offerings and our overall satisfaction with the facilities, staff, activities and neighbors. We are in our early 80s and the majority of our fellow residents are 5-10 year older but we have established some good relationships that we value. Maintenance in the facility is top notch. If something breaks, it gets fixed quickly and efficiently. Every week, there are interesting excursions to gardens, theaters, museums and performances at minimal cost and included transportation. An extensive assortment of fitness activities, a fully equipped exercise room and an indoor pool are first rate. Finally, we feel that the food offerings have improved noticeably to a level on par with what I would cook myself. We do not expect to ever see restaurant grade offerings or food that is exotically spiced but we are satisfied with the everyday fare. We are confident that we made the right choice to move to Wesley Des Moines

    This place values money over its employees! High turnover…read morerate. Home health workers have to work off the clock to stay under a limited time frame. Complaints among many employees flow like water from a dam that's burst, however, positive feedback is enforced with penalties if an employee doesn't post at least 3 a month. Residents and their families have voiced concerns over rising costs contrasted by less staff and longer wait times for assistance. The food served to the residents is dismal. At breakfast, the food is either burnt or gelatinous from sitting in a pan too long. Bistro food is good, aside from the stale desserts. The food served to the memory care residents is low quality and and difficult for them to eat it. For being a Christian based company, why does it feel like it's ... not..

    My mother has been living at Pacific Northwest Home Care since November 2023. She has Alzheimer's…read moreand Aphasia and requires full nursing care. Elena and her staff have taken excellent care of her from day one. It is clear that Elena and the staff care a great deal about the residents they care for and do an excellent job. What appealed to me from the fist step I took in the home is how clean, orderly, spacious and pleasant it is. I knew that my mom would like it. She is looking much healthier and happier since she has been there. I come by for quick visits and have also brought my brother and sister and their families for visits and each time we feel welcome. A Nurse Practitioner visits monthly and he and Elena are open to discussing my mom's health needs and taking a team approach to dealing with them. Elena makes excellent suggestions - and follows up on them. They also have a hair stylist visit and provide nail care. All of this means a great deal to me. My prayers were answered when I found this amazing place for my mom to live and be cared for.

    Wow and Wow! Moving my mom and then my dad (45 days later) into Pacific Northwest Home Care has…read morebeen the best decision. I asked my mom what to write and she said "superb care!." Elena is amazing, genuinely caring and engaged in providing respectful and effective home care to our elders. She has hired incredible staff. Every time I visit they are moving around either spending time with the residents, providing care or cleaning. The care providers seem happy which means to me that they are being treated well and supported. My mom and dad get a better ratio of care providers compared to a skilled nursing facility and it is more cost effective and feels like they are home. I researched adult family homes and the five star ratings here are justified. Elena's communication is fabulous. She had a team of great care providers. She and her team treat my parents with the respect they deserve having survived 80 years of age and 57 years of marriage. Elena is very open to individual needs and preferences. My mom gets a personal bed bath every day and has not looked better in the past few years. My sister and I are so relieved and grateful. We are always welcomed into the house and Elena has been responsive to all communications. A++++++++.

    Get out!!!!! My…read morefather was at Stafford, and I would not wish this experience on anyone. The treatment here is completely unacceptable. Staff come into rooms without knocking, with no regard for privacy or basic respect. The way they speak to patients is cold and rude, smart asses really, like people don't matter. It's disgusting how little care or compassion is shown. The facility is cold and stale. The staff's attitude is complete shit for a healthcare facility. Stafford should be ashamed of how they treat people.

    I used to work here a few years ago. This place was used to be Stafford Healthcare and since it is…read morenow owned by a different company they changed the name to "Puget sound Healthcare" It takes a lot of energy and time to build up a great team of nurses, rehab team, management and all. Due to the fact that they are always understaffed we can easily say that It's not an easy turn around for this facility to be successful. I see that each and everyone that is working in this facility works really hard especially the rehab team and most importantly the nurses. If the rehab team and nurses can devide themselves just to meet their patient standard of care, they would. I would say give this facility a chance because inside this building is a great of team members that are working hard to give the care and support that our love one needs.
