Highgate Senior Living is an assisted living and memory care community in Wenatchee, Washington, providing a whole-person approach to care. The community is part of a broader Highgate network that spans multiple locations across the western United States. With a 75-bed capacity, 54 beds are occupied, or approximately 72% occupancy, in line with the Washington average. The community’s staff is also trained to support residents’ physical, emotional, and social needs.
The inspection history shows a combination of strengths and areas for improvement that warrant attention, with a total of 13 state inspections, which exceeds the Washington average of nine. Across these inspections, a total of 78 deficiencies were identified, which is significantly higher compared to a statewide average of 31. During the most recent life safety review on October 23, 2025, several fire safety concerns were identified, including incomplete documentation for system maintenance, unsecured oxygen cylinders, and insufficient clearance from ignition sources.
Previous inspections also cited medication administration issues and gaps in resident monitoring, with some complaint investigations confirming lapses in care practices. Citations were issued, though no fines or license suspensions appear in available records. So, families are encouraged to discuss current fire safety corrections and updated medication management protocols with the management.
The community’s key strength lies in the range of care programs available, with assisted living, memory care, and couples care, allowing partners with different needs to remain together. Respite stays and independent living options are also available. Dining also features meals prepared from scratch and served in a restaurant-style setting. Being part of a larger regional network also allows the community to provide access to broader operational resources and standardized practices that may not be available in smaller communities.

With a Little Help has been doing this since 1995, which is a long stretch for a home care agency to stay in business. Paul Sivesind owns and administers it now, running things out of an office at 2021 Minor Ave E, Suite A, in Seattle’s Eastlake neighborhood. The agency covers the wider Puget Sound region, not just the immediate area around that office.
Eastlake itself is very walkable; a Walk Score of 80 means most errands nearby don’t require a car, which matters more for the office than for clients receiving care at home. Billing here runs entirely private-pay, so families get a consistent structure to plan around rather than navigating multiple coverage types.
The actual care starts with an in-home assessment, and from there caregivers build something personalized. Bathing, dressing, medication management, meal prep, that’s the daily-living baseline. Transportation and companionship round it out, aimed at keeping someone connected rather than isolated.
Where this agency stands out is specialization: memory loss care and Parkinson’s disease care are both named specifically, not folded into generic “personal care” language, and hospice support is available for end-of-life needs too. Scheduling flexes between hourly visits and full 24-hour live-in care, and respite care exists for family members who need a real break, not just a promise of one.
With a Little Help is an agency built around specialization and continuity: three decades of operating history, a private-pay model that keeps billing simple, and care tracks specific enough to match conditions like Parkinson’s or advancing memory loss rather than treating every client the same way.

Frequently Asked Questions about Memory Care in Washington
What's the difference between assisted living and memory care in Washington?
Assisted living in Washington supports residents with daily activities (bathing, dressing, medication management) while preserving independence. Memory care is a specialized form of assisted living for residents living with Alzheimer's or dementia, and adds 24/7 secured environments, dementia-trained staff, and structured routines designed to reduce confusion and wandering.
Does Washington Medicaid cover memory care?
Washington Medicaid does not directly pay room-and-board for memory care, but most states (including Washington) offer Home and Community-Based Services (HCBS) waivers that can offset the cost of care services delivered inside a licensed community. Eligibility, waitlists, and covered services vary — check directly with the state Medicaid agency.
