My mother-in-law is at the Aegis Living of Issaquah and we can't say enough good things about it. They specialize in dementia and the only way they will move a resident to memory care is when they are a harm to themselves or others. Everybody there has dementia. It is very tranquil with beautiful grounds; they have separate grounds. It is not a large building, and so there's not a lot of stories and elevators that the seniors have to navigate. They call them cottages, and in each cottage they have eight apartments. Well, they are not really apartments, they are a very tiny one-bedroom, which is just OK since they need more care. They have no kitchen or anything, but for the most part they are very good with her meds. She needs full care, so they dress her and all that stuff. They are very gentle and respectful, and she is super happy. My husband used to be there before COVID. They treat COVID very seriously and they protect the residents. They shut down everything. The residents are in their rooms right now.

They serve cold food to residents and do not place people in proper areas when they are coherent and can talk. My family member very able to talk and walk was placed in an area of the facility where people didn’t talk and were like zombies. After less than 1 month, our family removed my family member back home. Food was left sitting until,it was cold and then served to people living there. Food served was questionable and some not even cooked to be able to chew. My family members spent hours the...

Aegis Living of Issaquah looks like a great facility. I got the impression that the people there had activities to do and people were attentive. I thought that looked like a good facility. We also toured another place that seemed kind of depressing, like the memory care folks were just kind of shoved in the basement. This place seemed like there were nice big windows so they could look outside of the trees. It's very beautiful. There was a nice porch where they could sit outside. The residents s...

Aegis of Issaquah had a nice quaint setting like a cottage. It was one level, there's a covered walk outside, and there were lots of hanging plants and landscaping around it. It's also secure and very clean. The staff was nice, friendly, and accommodating, but I think some of them need a little bit more experience.

I visited Aegis, and it's like a resort. It's very clean and orderly. The rooms were quite small, but very nice. The people were very proactive, very nice, and very helpful. They seemed to have nice service and facilities.

We were looking for a place for my mother who has beginning stages of dementia. First, as upsetting as it is to have my mom dealing with this disease and of course my dad being worried about her, etc. finding the "right" place has been a pretty scary experience. We chose this community for what seemed to us to be a very loving environment and also the outside spaces. Most of the other places we went to had very limited outside spaces for residents in a secure memory care area. My mom loves the o...

My experience with Aegis did not end well. I had my mom there for about three years in their Issaquah facility. On the plus side the actual caregivers themselves were very dedicated and really did their very best to help make my mom's time there pleasant. There are lots of activities and the place sure looks good from the outside. One of the challenges of working with this facility is their somewhat complicated fee basis. They have a system of care points and rates and rent points and rates with...

My mom right now is at Aegis of Issaquah - Aegis Living. She's been there for two months now in their memory care facility. The facility is nice, and her room is not too big nor too small. Their dining area is very nice, clean, and open. The food is adequate. It's not fancy, but it's good, basic food. There seems to be a decent variety in terms of what they eat. It's palatable for their palate. It is institutional food, but I think they do a pretty good job out of it. For the most part, the staf...

My mother is a resident in the hospice unit. The care, kindness and encouragement she receives from the staff is exemplary. The staff is very responsive to our needs and hers which makes this difficult time in our lives bearable. My family thanks the staff for taking such loving care of my mother. Their job is not easy but because of their dedication we are thankful that she is there.

My parents have been living at Aegis for several months. The facility and the grounds are well maintained. The social and recreational programming is supposed to be geared towards individual interests, but my parents' interests have not yet been addressed. Encouragement to participate seems to be minimal. I visit regularly. When I visit unexpectedly, I always find my parents in their room regardless of day or time. My mother is usually sleeping. The staff members are all very friendly. T...

I visited Aegis of Issaquah and the staff are very kind. The staff are fairly conscientious about making potential new comers feel welcome. They are very attentive and good as far as taking care of the families too. The only drawback is that they don't offer Medicare. The rooms are really small and they have cottages which is a different concept. They had very nice grounds for people that want to walk and it's in a very nice part of the town. It's a safe and really walk-friendly place. Th...

Aegis Living is very clean, the food is good, and so is the staff. Their cottage concept is geared towards my mother's needs in terms of dementia. Mother has stayed there for rested care before and she liked it, so that kind of influenced our decision. I liked their very pleasant grounds and the windows in their units look out into wide areas and bird feeders; not a parking lot, a freeway, or building. They have a fitness, mind, and craft activities as well as Bible discussion groups, which I ...
