Our family is so happy we found this place for my Mom.

The building is very well kept and inviting and the staff is friendly. My Mom got one of the mid sized rooms and it was a perfect size for her.

Review for The Sequoia Assisted Living

It's a very welcoming community with plenty of opportunities to interact with other residents. As far as the staff goes, I would say that some of the night staff could be more responsive and have better bedside manner. I would definitely recommend this place to others.

Would recommend

The Staff at Sequoia Assisted Living community are friendly and helpful and have done their best to make my Mom feel welcome. She had a fall once in the middle of the night and they immediately responded to her pressing the call button, got her up and reorient and settled her. I know she is safe there.

We toured with The Sequoia and it was a very close first contender. The facility and the staff were both very nice. The room sizes were just a little bit bigger at [facility name removed] and we thought the shower set up was much safer. That was the main reason we chose them instead.

Toured the Sequoia on Friday and was taken away by how ambient is the feel of the place. Spacious, very calm, with lots of outdoor patios and balconies. Sequoia's renovated interior looks elegant and tasteful to the last detail. You feel as if you are at the retreat. Impressive choice of things to do dazzled me with a cooking master class! Yes, I am a foodie, and this along would be a deciding factor for me. What's more engaging then learning from [name removed] - a head chef with over 30 year s of restaurant experience! it is like being on the Food channel every week! Wow! the staff is so collaborative and helpful, yes, Sequoia is a place to be!

A Good Safe Place for Mom to Be

This community is far more attentive towards the residents needs than another community my loved one was at. We appreciate the timeliness in responding to the resident's requests as well. The staff communication with the family is wonderful, and they are responsive to our questions and concerns about our loved one. There are three meals a day served. The food is average for my loved one, and there is always plenty to eat.

Sequoia Assisted Living

The staff has been amazing. They are friendly and attentive. Anything that I have asked for from the nursing staff or office has been provided for us immediately. They accept and welcome family involvement at all times. The cost is the best value that we found in the area after researching many, many other facilities. Being a smaller facility makes it seem more home like. The location is fantastic. Close to the hospital and many other doctors/specialists offices. Our family is very pleased with this choice for our parents. Our parents are being cared for, and we can breathe again.

Review of Sequoia Assisted Living

The people at the "front" desk are friendly and hospitable. The staff is very helpful. What the Sequoia does is a hard job and what we pay for it I'm pleased. My mom is happy and that is the most important thing.

Dont go

Place understaffed for Years- I was there 3 yrs and it was hell. Crappy food. Admin not working with staff. If it is still an issue, there were only caregivers working at night. No nurses. Felt unsafe. Cutting corners when all have been cut already. Never again.

Poor quality

This place is understaffed. Staff is undertrained. Food is high in sodium and preservatives. Its a shame honestly that quality care cannot be given to our most valuable members of our society - our elders.... Staff means well but they are over worked due to corporate levels of management most likely.

A very nice facility and exceptional staff. I found that the complex being of an older design did not provide apartments with an adequate kitchen area... small appliances and in a closet so no real kitchen that would provide for an easier transition from a home to an apartment.

Tips for evaluating your community options

Safety is a primary concern when seniors and their families look for Assisted Living. To ensure that a community meets your needs and expectations, we recommend that seniors and family members:

  • Tour the location: Touring allows you to speak to current residents and staff, and helps you confirm the accuracy of the community description and photos. Use our touring checklist to help guide your visit.

  • Confirm the availability of required services: Before you commit, make sure that the community offers all the services your senior needs, and that those services can be provided within your budget.

  • Know the Washington regulations for Assisted Living: Each state has its own laws and inspections processes to ensure seniors reside in a safe environment. Depending on your state, you may even be able to look up inspection reports for the community(ies) you’re considering. Learn more about Washington regulations for Assisted Living.
