It is not often that I write reviews. However I remember how hard it was to find a place for our Mom when she needed more help than my sisters and I could provide. We first had her at one of the large locally owned care facilities and it was Ok but with several patients per staff we wanted something a little more personal. Dan and Sonia were exactly what we had hoped for. They and their staff treated Mom as if she was one of their own family members. The facility, food, and staff could not have been better. If you want a place that cares for your family member the way you would this is the place

My mother is happy living at The Garden Club. It is nicely located, and it's close to the Factoria mall. They have incredibly nice people that run the place, from the assistant managers, to the girl at the front desk, and the maintenance man. The guests made my mom feel right at home and they get her and make sure she eats. The food is neither terrific nor terrible. Their calendar of activities is loaded every single day. They feature one unit a month and give it a little discounted price per month. She has a kitchen, but she gets three meals a day and snacks. It's a great value for the money. She's adapting all right.

I liked it very much. It was really nice, but the place they had available was a double room, which were separate rooms, but they shared a bathroom. I don't know if my mother would've liked that. They didn't seem to have the availability of a private room. There were people doing activities all over the place and walking around. They had a movie room and an exercise room. They gave us some cookies, which were pretty good. They had an in-house restaurant and a bakery. They made their own food there, and you could go in any time of the day and get whatever you wanted. The staff was really nice.

The only thing The Garden Club had available was the two-bedroom, and it was away from everybody else. It was very dark, and we didn't care for that unit. The staff was very nice and very thorough. The facility was clean and the lobby was very nice. They had a lot of activities. I didn't like the location. It's near the freeway, but back in the woods and it's too dark for me in there. They had an activity room and a bus that would take you to different places.

Sunrise of Bellevue is a lovely community with nice and wonderful people. My recollection was that I actually thought it was the place for my mother. However, the pricing of the rooms was higher than the community, but the prices for the care was comparable. If not for the fact that the prices for her room would be higher, I would have chosen this place because it's a beautiful community.

We toured The Garden Club. We liked the convenient location and pricing. It was well-appointed and closer to doctors and hospitals. It was a good community. They had a library, movie room, physical fitness room, and an activity room with bingo, puzzles, and games.

The wide range of costs for senior care is based largely on the type of care provided, the location and what is included. In Bellevue, nursing home care is nearly double the cost of assisted living, while homemaker and home health aide services cost about $1,000 more a month than assisted living. It’s important to note that these figures for in-home services don’t include additional expenses associated with maintaining a home, such as utilities, taxes, insurance and upkeep. These costs are normally included with residential care for seniors. Cost of Homemaker/Home Health Aide Comparison Chart

Bellevue seniors aged 65 and older may qualify for Classic Medicaid coverage under Washington Apple Health, the state Medicare program. There are a number of coverage options available for seniors who are Medicare-eligible, including the Apple Health Medicare Savings Program, which provides individuals with assistance to pay Medicare premiums, coinsurance charges, co-payments and deductibles.
Seniors aged 65 and older who have a monthly income of $1,396 or less may qualify for up to $16,752 in coverage if they meet means testing. This includes a retroactive five-year audit of assets prior to the date of their Medicaid application to prevent fraudulent claims.
Seniors may also qualify for Apple Health Long-Term Care, which includes coverage for a range of long-term care services including nursing home care for applicants who require placement in a nursing home. Apple Health Long-Term Care also includes coverage for home-based and assisted living services for applicants who need help with two or more activities of daily living, such as grooming, dressing and light meal preparation.
Long-term care coverage through Medicaid in Washington falls under three programs. The income limit for both the Institutional/Nursing Home Medicaid program and the Medicaid Waivers/Home and Community-Based Services is $2,313 per month for a single applicant and $4,626 for a married couple when both spouses are applying. The third long-term care coverage program, for regular Medicaid applicants who are aged, blind or disabled, has income limits of $771 per month for singles and $1,157 for married couples.
To speak with a navigator about the Apple Health enrollment process, call the Washington Healthplanfinder at (855) 923-4633.
Assisted Living Bridge Loans and Reverse Mortgages
Bridge loans provide up to 12 months of payments for seniors who require short-term assistance paying for assisted living. These loans, offered through Elderlife Financial Services, provide seniors with access to either a lump-sum payment or a line of credit that can be paid off once benefits are approved or the senior sells their home.
Reverse mortgages are available for partnered seniors aged 62 or older who own their own home and one partner or spouse needs to move into an assisted living facility. These reverse mortgages allow seniors to access the equity in their home to pay for assisted living while retaining ownership of their residence as long as one spouse continues to live in the home.
To learn more about assisted living bridge loans and reverse mortgages, contact Elderlife Financial at (888) 228-4500.
Veterans Aid and Attendance Benefits and Housebound Allowance
Veterans who have been honorably discharged and their surviving spouses may be eligible for benefits to cover assisted living costs through the Aid and Attendance and Housebound Program. This program is restricted to those who qualify for a VA pension, and it cannot be combined with VA disability benefits. Note that for the purposes of this program, disability does not need to be related to military service.
The Housebound pension supplement is available to qualified applicants who have both a VA disability rating of 100 percent and are largely limited to their primary residence as a direct result of their permanent disability.
The Aid and Attendance pension top-up is available to applicants who:
