Aegis of West Seattle provides both Assisted Living and Memory Care, giving residents access to care plans that adjust as needs change. The community accepts individuals who wander during the day or night, have elopement risks, exhibit combative or other behavioral issues, remain awake overnight, or manage complex medical situations such as wound care, oxygen therapy, special diets, and multiple forms of diabetes management—including oral medication, injections, and sliding-scale regimens. Residents under 60 years old and those living with advanced dementia are also welcome.
Care delivery is bolstered by an RN or LPN on staff, a nurse on call around the clock, and an awake night shift for continuous oversight. Emergency pull cords and personal emergency response systems connect directly to staff, while a fenced outdoor area adds another layer of security for residents who may wander. Full assistance is available for bathing, dressing, eating, and toileting, and staff can accommodate mobility needs ranging from supervision while using a walker to two-person transfers for wheelchair users. On-site podiatry services help residents maintain foot health without leaving the building, and a full-time activity director structures daily engagement.
Apartments feature a private bathroom, kitchenette, independent temperature controls, optional cable service, and the opportunity to paint or decorate the space; however, not every unit includes every feature. Prospective residents can review available layouts to match their preferences for privacy, personalization, and convenience.
Dining operates on an on-order system, allowing residents to choose meals that suit their tastes and clinical requirements. Snacks are available throughout the day, and the kitchen team can manage a wide range of diet modifications, from diabetic needs to physician-ordered restrictions, ensuring that nutritional plans align with individual care directives.
Amenities include resident parking, wheelchair-accessible common areas, a barber/beauty shop, exercise room, movie room, and a wellness center with internet access. Scheduled transportation is available, and the property is close to public transit for added flexibility. Pets are allowed; it’s a good idea to check with the community during your visit to see if your pet will be allowed.
