Discovery Memory Care

I moved my mom into the Discovery Memory Care facility in July, and I just cannot say enough good things about them. Always friendly, and sooooooo helpful. gracious in answering all my questions. I can eat with her, come and go as I please. Someone there always knows where my mom is, I just have to ask, and there she is. My mom loves the place. She NEVER ate pizza that I ever knew about, but she eats it now. She is so happy. She looks good. she's happy, loves the care I can onl...

Sincerely Grateful

Discovery Memory Care administrators, caregivers, nursing staff and facility general workers serve with compassion and work as a team. I completely trust this facility to care for my mother and see that her needs are met. They are warmly attentive and communicative to family members, friends and visitors to the facility. They should be made aware of this appreciation and honored for their dedicated services. Memory care can be very challenging and this facility gives more than 100% to meet t...

We are very pleased with the care and quality of life Alice has received while living at this facility. Cheryl and Pam are especially helpful and friendly.

My mother is always smiling when I visit her at Discovery Memory Care. She gets to go on great field trips with the other residents and the pictures are so fun to see. Mom is always smiling in the pictures they take of her. Mom's apartment room is very pleasant. It is clean and neat and tidy. Our father, her husband of 65 years passed away a year ago and left Mom without her closest partner. Since then Mom has bonded with other residents who are loving and caring towards her as are the staff mem...

Caring....this is the first word that comes to mind when I think of the staff at Discovery Memory Center. This applies to all: administrators, nursing staff, med tech staff, caregivers, recreation, and maintanance and custodial. I often stop in amazement listening to someone on the custodial staff stop their work and take time to interact with a resident. The residents come first, their needs come first, responding to them comes first. How wonderful to know that those who care for my mother...

I have been an "on again-off again" volunteer at Discovery for several years. When i had to scale back my volunteer activities for health reasons, I kept Discovery as one of my few volunteer places. You can't help but fall in love with the residents there. And the compassion that is show to the ones who live there is truly heart-warming. And not just from the caregivers but from all the staff. It might be hard to picture, but those residents really do have a wonderful quality of life there....

The care provided by this memory care facility is awesome! The staff truly cares about their residents and they do all they can to make sure everyone is as comfortable and happy as possible. Their activity program is probably the best in the state. The residents are kept engaged and busy a good portion of each day. My mother has been living there for more than a year now and whenever I visit, she is clean and well-cared for which is what every daughter wants for their mother. Thank you Di...

We will always be grateful to Discovery for the care they provided for my wife's mother. Her time there was much better than we could have hoped for; she was happy and active until the end, with good friends and tireless support from the staff.

Discovery Memory Care provided a safe haven and home for my friend's mother for the last four years of her life. During her final days, we remained by her side and I had the opportunity to observe what an amazing facility this is and how gifted the staff truly are. Even though this was a very difficult time for all of us, the staff were extremely attentive, compassionate, loving and nurturing. They made my friend's mom as comfortable as possible and they were very supportive and caring towards t...

In September of 2013 I had to make the hardest decision of my life. For 2 years I had cared for my mother in my home, because her stay in the nursing home had been a nightmare. All hope for living was gone from her life. At my home, she regained her vitality. But when she could no longer walk, and falls were becoming too common, she and I realized that living in my home was no longer an option. But, to me, putting my mom in a home was at best a prison sentence, and at worst a death sentence...

Discovery Memory Care was really good. I almost put him in there. It was a good option. He would have been in a respite care room. It was a nice, big room, but he wouldn't have had as much of a view as I would have liked him to have. We determined our own menus, and the administrator told us they could have the food brought in, so it's really good. You get choices in things. I know they had little outing trips that they would take. They did allow the people that are in for respite to go on thos...

Discovery was a little older but seemed to be well-run. It seemed to be a nice facility. They seemed to have adequate staff. They had a lot of activities for the patients, and they seemed to have a good dietary type of program. The rooms seemed to be pretty adequate in size.

I spent alot of time researching and visiting assisted living and Alzheimer's facilities within a 75 mile radius as I prepared to make the difficult decision to move my family member from home to a place with 24 hour care. From the moment I walked in the door, I was treated like a person and not a sale to be made. I didn't have an appointment as I had been advised to visit and see them unannounced to get to see the "real picture". I was greeted warmly by the gal in the front office who asked ...

I want to share my experience with Discovery Memory Care with you. We left my 87 year old mother at Discovery Memory Care in September 2011, since the Dungeness and Sherwood facilities in Sequim don't have space available for respite care. Each stay for mother was four days. The charge was $1,450.00, in advance. The first time we picked mother up, she was in a urine soaked Depends, and the skin on her buttocks had dry fecal matter. The second time, we found her in much worse condition. Her eyes...

My mother in law had been to a couple of places before discovery. Once there , she actually began to thrive. She's happy there, and has made many friends. They have great activities and music, and provide the care she needs. The staff has been wonderful, and understanding , in everything, helping us understand something we have never had to deal with until now. Thank you all for all the care you have given her.

We chose Discovery because the home feels real. The atmosphere and activities seem appropriate to the real needs of the residents. The staff understands the family's needs and what we are going through. They made a difficult situation easier. From the moment my mother walked through the doors, she was treated with love, respect, care and understanding. And, a year and a half later, still is. Thank you Discovery!
