Overview of Brookdale West Seattle

Brookdale West Seattle in Seattle, WA, works at two levels, assisted living and independent living. Assisted living means staff at hand for dressing, bathing, and taking medication. Independent living comes with the community’s services and none of the daily care, and a resident whose needs grow crosses from one to the other without leaving.

Units come as studios, one bedroom, and two bedroom. A studio is one private space for one person, and a two bedroom works for a couple moving in together or for anyone who wants a companion. Respite care is here too, for the short stay a family caregiver books around travel or a recovery.

There are 60 beds, and independent living starts at $4,450 a month while assisted living starts at $3,995. Medicaid is accepted, and an eligible resident can put that benefit toward the cost.

Dining is restaurant-style, with seasonal menu options that change each day. A fitness center, a salon, and arts and crafts are on the amenity list, and pets are allowed. Very walkable covers the 87 this address scores, and most errands go on foot for a resident who no longer drives.
