My Aunt has been at Aegis Living Greenwood for three years. The experience has not been positive…read more The major problem is that Aegis is a for profit enterprise run by an owner who wants to maximize his profits. This is done at the expense of senior residents and their families who feel trapped. When our aunt entered the facility her monthly invoice was about $8,000. Due to inflation and a "care point" system imposed by Aegis, her current invoice is now over $14,000 per month. Yes, there has been a gradual decline in my aunt's physical and mental abilities, but nothing so acute as to warrant a 75% increase in the cost of her care within three years. Rather, it feels like Aegis has devised a way to legally extort ever greater sums out of its vulnerable senior residents and their families. Within the fine print of the contract she signed there is a "care points" system which is supposed to relate to additional services that may be provided. Aegis has the UNILATERAL power to impose these services and charges on the resident. Just this past month, Aegis Greenwood said it installed a new software to calculate care points, and by virtue of this new system even more points were added DESPITE no additional services being provided. Additionally, the Aegis assessments are incredibly vague in describing which specific services are being provided to justify the additional points being charged. When one contacts Aegis for an explanation of the charges, they deflect giving an answer and instead request a face to face meeting, so that they can have the element of surprise and create intimidation by bringing in several employees. They refuse to put anything in writing. I feel that Aegis has entrapped and is financially abusing my aunt and likely many other vulnerable seniors for whom changes, like moving their residence, is a very difficult matter. One report filed with the State says, "He did not recall signing anything recently regarding an increase in care points. He was paying 10-11K per month when his mother moved into assisted living and now pays between $18-19K per month [three years later]." Sounds familiar. Even with all of this going on, it is unlikely I will move my aunt as she has settled into the place and moving her would be a true hardship on her at this stage of her life. I am managing her finances so only I have to deal with the disgusting behavior of Aegis management.

Two separate people, a man and woman, at separate times in trying to schedule for my parents to come see the facility-- made comments about our names, even joked that our last name doesn't sound Swedish. Listen- I've been a business owner here in Ballard and helped start three companies out of this neighborhood and lived here for nearly 30 years. No I'm not Scandinavian, thanks for noticing in the way your company seems comfortable doing. I am not only cancelling any visit, but I am also reporting your treatment of customers of color to the Secretary of State's office. You all are so comfortable in your prejudice you didn't realize that the year is 2026. You have as much access to the world as anyone and you should probably look out the window and check who your neighbors are. Your staff is atrocious. If you are a different company than you are showing yourselves to be- then what's the delay?

Finding a suitable match for long-term care was challenging for our family. Luckily, we found Aegis Living on Market Street in Ballard as a residence and care facility. Aegis Living is not only top-notch in every aspect of senior care but also gives complete reassurance to our family that all of her needs and medications are being met with the utmost professionalism. The residence is very clean and the dining room offers excellent cuisine with daily specials. Everyday there are activities, exercise sessions, and programs designed to get my mom out of her room and involve herself with the other residents. Entertainers are regularly invited to perform on the grand piano in lobby and there'll even be a concert there in a few weeks for New Year's Eve. Although there are still times that my mom has the blues, our family can rest assured that she is has a group of new friends, gets three delicious hot meals a day, receives all her required medication in a timely manner, and most importantly, - she is safe and sound. As a family, we are very fortunate to have found Aegis Living in Ballard. Thank you to Paul and Michelle and the entire team there!

It's very difficult to make a change when one is in their 80s, but the staff and residents at Ida Culver Ravenna went above and beyond. Everything is five star in our book. At Ida Culver you will be surprised to find a warm, welcoming place behind the serious facade on NE 65th. The majority of the facility is older with big picture windows facing either a meditation garden or a beautiful, large sunny garden. This won't fill your needs if you're looking for brand new, McMansion type living. But if you are looking for wonderful spaces, bright and cheerful views, top notch staff with absolutely great communication, you have found the right place for your loved one(s). Soon after our Mom moved into Ida Culver, her health started to decline. The staff of Ida Culver was right on top of it, communicating to us what we didn't always see on our regular visits. Not only was the staff great, the other residents looked after Mom, and communicated to the staff when there was a problem. They were with us in dealing with hospitalization, were with us in dealing with the hospital regarding her care, and were with us for the short term of skilled nursing in order to gain strength. Our Mom will be transitioning to full assisted living, and the nursing staff has been wonderful concerning planning, communicating, and meeting with us. Bravo Ida Culver. It's wonderful to find a place that truly cares about their residents and 100% advocates for the best care possible. They have made this difficult journey that much easier.

Our adventure with University House Wallingford began in 2009, when my mother sold her house across…read morethe country and moved to Seattle to be close to family. We selected University House for a number of reasons, and while it wasn't perfect (what retirement community really is?), it was the best option for her. My mother certainly enjoyed most of her experiences there and met some incredibly interesting and accomplished individuals. She enjoyed the proximity to downtown Wallingford and, on the whole, enjoyed the food and staff. However, be aware of one very important concern. University House is managed by ERA Living, and this is probably the weakest point from the perspective of coming away from her time living there with a good feeling. Be aware that when a retirement community tells you that they can handle assisted living, it is by no means a guarantee that when the time comes to move to assisted living they will allow your elderly parent(s) to stay. That was the case with us, as my mother was essentially evicted from her apartment after a period of being ill for a number of months. Though there are residents of University House with debilitating conditions such as ALS who require constant care, it is the predictability of the care needed that will drive University House's decision regarding whether they will allow a resident to stay. So, if somebody's health is essentially up and down and unpredictable, they feel as though they can't handle that. If somebody, such as in the ALS scenario, has a predictable downward trajectory, they are OK with that. So, we were told to find her somewhere else to live. We did so and were very happy with the second housing situation, where she remained for the remainder of her life. But, there was one final surprise from University House. We were told near the end of the month that she could no longer live there, so we rushed to find the new housing alternative, and we had her out before the end of the month. But, University House has a 10 day notification of vacancy policy (it may have been a different amount, but my recollection is 10 days. . . nonetheless, the forthcoming point is still valid). Even though were were out of the apartment before the end of the month, they still opted to charge us for the now-vacant apartment for about five days afterwards. No attempt at good faith was shown on this issue, which really was heartbreaking for my mother. It wasn't the money. It was the loss of trust in an organization that she'd thought had the best interest of the residents at heart. So, yes, ERA Living is a for-profit company. They're allowed to make a buck (or a million). But, they really need to rethink the manner in which their policies come off in practice.

If you're considering a retirement home for your aged parent, you could do far worse. Having had a…read morerelative in both Ballard Landmark and U. House, each has their own charms to recommend. Ballard Landmark skews a little younger and buzzier and has the advantage of the animated Ballard Ave. But U. House is far and away more intellectually stimulating and cultural, with a heavy emphasis on musical offerings. The grounds are lovely and elegant, and the food, while not My ideal, is selected with care. The staff rotates, of course, but are generally well intentioned. Neither facility is recommended for heavy duty assisted living, so if serious infirmity is on the horizon, best to find somewhere with continuing care priorities.
