Overview of Creekside Village

At 3100 Falk Rd in the Bagley Downs neighborhood of Vancouver, Washington, Creekside Village markets itself as an independent living community with optional assisted living and memory care options. The two-story building houses one, two, and three-bedroom apartment homes with assigned parking. Pets are permitted.

The facility maintains 24-hour staffing with licensed nurses and certified nursing assistants on-site, complemented by a 24-hour emergency call system and on-site healthcare provider availability. Rehabilitation services include physical, occupational, and speech therapy designed to support resident mobility and functional independence. The wellness program centers on recreational and fitness amenities: a 24-hour fitness center with cardio and strength training equipment, an indoor swimming pool, and spa facilities.

Additional community spaces encompass a library, salon and beauty shop, dining room and restaurant, courtyard and patio areas, and coordinated transportation services. Religious programming is offered.

The neighborhood scores 43 on walkability assessments, meaning some nearby services are accessible on foot but most errands require vehicles. Vancouver’s city center is 27.3 miles away; Fresenius Medical Care is 2.7 miles distant. The facility ranks 387 of 628 Washington senior residences on walkability indices.

Creekside Village does not hold current CMS certification for Medicare or Medicaid.

A geographic inconsistency appears in the facility’s promotional materials: the overview text references “Eugene, Oregon,” while the actual address is 3100 Falk Rd, Vancouver, Washington.

Creekside Village accommodates independent living residents in Vancouver seeking recreational programming, on-site therapy services, and wellness amenities, operating outside the Medicare/Medicaid certification framework as a private-pay community.

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.

What is memory care?

Memory care is a specialized form of assisted living for residents living with Alzheimer's disease or other forms of dementia, with secured environments, dementia-trained staff, and routines built to reduce confusion and wandering.

How many memory care communities are listed on this page?

This page features 300 memory care communities in Washington. Use the filters and comparison tools above to compare ratings, amenities, and pricing.

How do I choose the right memory care community in Washington?

Start by matching the level of care offered to the resident's current and anticipated needs, then compare licensing status, staff-to-resident ratios, recent inspection results, and pricing. Tour at least two or three communities in Washington, talk to current residents and families, and confirm what is included in the base rate versus billed as add-on services.

What should I look for when visiting memory care communities in Washington?

Pay attention to staff interactions with residents, cleanliness and odor, food quality at meal times, the activity calendar, and how questions about pricing and care plans are answered. Ask to see the most recent state inspection report, the move-out / level-of-care-change policy, and a sample monthly bill that lists every fee.
