Easy for mom to get around, exercise program, friendly staff. They need more help in diner, too short staffed and not really balanced meals.

Excellent Care for Dad

My father is very happy here with the care at this community. He loves that the staff is friendly and takes excellent care of his needs. The food is very good and he likes the variety. Activities are great for him to stay active with others. We would recommend the great care for other families for their loved ones.

Nice place for Mom

We toured 6 facilities in our hunt for a place for my 95 year old Mother. For our needs the Lodge stood out above all others. The staff is friendly and respond quickly to your needs. Mom is not in need of assisted living yet, however, when she is there is staff to respond. She has just been there three weeks, so far we are happy.

so pleased

I am so pleased with Madrona Park . It's small and homey. It is fun to visit there. The friends I've taken to visit there really like it. The staff get him involved in anything going on. They have cookies and coffee for the residents. It smells like home. He gets help getting dressed, taking showers, and help when he falls. They have a lot of activities going on there. It's just overall been a great experience.

Very nice place!

My loved one lived here for 4 years before we needed to move him due to increased care needs. The Lodge at Eagle Ridge is a wonderful place, and we'd still have him here if we could! It is a beautiful property, and the staff is very friendly, it was like living in a nice hotel. I highly recommend this place!

great care

Ballard Landmark have done a great job getting me the sort of physical therapy that I need. I get the one on one attention and care that I need, which is very important. The food here is great, as are the wait staff. The worst thing about the place is the housekeepers. There is a high turnover rate there, and there have been a few things from my room that have gone missing. Some of them are good, but some are questionable.

Excellent facility. Very professional experience with Mindy Byers. I liked the facility, the environment, the cleanliness and the comprehensive services offered. The only problem is that the price point for the Single apartment was not very much less than what we are currently paying at The Summit. Therefore with anticipated services running $ 1000.00-1200.00 per month, we would exceed our budget. I also felt that I'd like to have my father in an Assisted Living facility a little closer to the Northgate area, as my brother Rion lives in Wedgewood. Otherwise I would highly rate this facility with 5 stars. Mindy Byers is very knowledgeable, professional and very caring. I really appreciated her follow-up phone call to see if we had any additional questions. I think that Ballard Landmark would be a terrific Assisted Living facility for my Dad.

We really have had a great experience with Emeritus! The price is definitely fair, and you get a good value! They were close to home, but they also have Memory Care, which we wanted available in the future! Our loved ones have had a positive experience here as well! There were, of course, a few glitches in the beginning, but they were amazing! They were a huge help with moving, and it's been a very positive experience so far!

Everything has been great here!

Everything has been great here! My loved one is very pleased with how helpful they are! I knew it would be good, but I didn't know it would be this good! She's extremely plased with the staff! The activities are good - they do church outings and sewing activities. For the most part, I haven't heard anything negetive about the food. We really liked this location because it's near my work and home, but we also really liked how comfortable she felt there. The environment is comfortable and the director was exceptional!

By far the best we've seen. The three stage approach is even better than we anticipated. They also offer an assessment without condition to our 'deposit' - a free service so we know the best placement and care package to start. This is very helpful when trying to plan for a changing budget. Emeritus provided us a printed price list for their base rents and care levels - not provided by Auburn Meadows. Emeritus also offered us the option to use my mom's long term care policy. We have been referred to their partner - Elder Resources Benefit Counseling - who can help us understand her policy and how we can best communicate beginning a claim and helping my mom receive the benefits from a policy she's paid so much $$ into. There seems to be immediate openings both in the assisted living and in the mid-way group. There was no pushing us to decision which we appreciated. They were good about communicating 'we are moving at your pace'. We have decided to schedule the assessment this week and we hope to make a decision soon at either Emeritus or Auburn Meadows. But feel very comfortable with the options we've seen to make a decision for my mom.
