Aegis Living
West Seattle

I go to Aegis of West Seattle for respite care when my family travels. I am always warmly welcomed and every one on the staff is kind and caring. I love my time at Aegis!

My mother was diagnosed with Alzheimer’s last summer. With her cognitive ability rapidly declining, I realized she could not live alone. The moment I stepped across the threshold at Aegis of West Seattle I knew I’d found my mother’s future home. Over the past six months, Aegis has taken care of my mother and our family in many ways. The staff at Aegis are kind, caring and compassionate. Great care is given to ensure my mother’s physical needs… are met. Throughout the day, memory care staff run programming that stimulates my mother’s thinking and keeps her engaged. Meals are well-prepared and delicious; I know as I’ve eaten there several times, including during amazing holiday events put on for Aegis residents and their families. The center has happy hour several times a week, including live entertainment and a glass of wine. Aegis staff have taught my family and I how to interact with a person with Alzheimer’s and provide educational speakers and a support group for family members. Even my mother’s old dog, who lives with her at Aegis, gets wonderful care! Knowing that my mother is well-cared for by compassionate people provides tremendous relief. I feel like Aegis staff are an extended part of our family, stopping to greet us when we visit and share news about their families even as they warmly listen to my stories. After six months, I would not have my mother anywhere but Aegis of West Seattle. Cathy Thompson

We appreciate the kindness and support during Mandy’s transition and throughout her residency at your facility. I know that I was somewhat dubious when selecting a facility for long term care. But those fears completely disappeared after the first few weeks at Aegis. Your facility quickly took Mandy under your care and made sure that she had everything she needed and made sure to recommend some changes in her room for her convenience. The facility and staff are first rate… and I would highly recommend Aegis in West Seattle for long term care.
