I am a past client of this providerReview of Bellevue Elderly Care

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

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 they 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.

My mother is doing well here. The staff is very caring, they're interested and concerned, and very supportive. They also have bingo and puzzles, exercising, scenic tours, and other activities.

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.

The had multiple buildings and the place seemed older. The one thing I didn't care for was that my dad would have to go to a different building outside to be able to have his meal, so that didn't appeal to me. The person who gave us the tour was really good, and I appreciated all of her time. The dining area was not as big as other places. For a large community it doesn't seem like it could accommodate all the people, but it looked OK.

I am a friend or relative of a current/past residentReview of Sagebrook Senior Living at Bellevue - CLOSED

I placed my husband here, and he's in the memory care section. It's very pleasing aesthetically, and everybody is very nice, but there is a lack of communication between staff members. I still have a lot of paperwork, and I don't think that information gets passed on to the actual caregivers. I feel like they need to make some changes in how they help the loved one understand what they can and cannot do, and I'm learning the hard way now. The parking lot is too small, but other than that it's fine. The dining facility where he is is very small, but the one in assisted living is beautiful, and well presented. There are residents who play games and others who sit outside in a beautiful garden and beautiful landscaped area. It's very peaceful there.

It was a nice place. The food was very good. The people who run the place were very nice and helpful, and the people who live there were very pleasant. They offered breakfast, lunch, and dinner. I had lunch when I was there, and the food was very good. It's probably one of the best ones I've been to. My very first impression of the place was, "I could live here." The staff was very informative, and when you set up an appointment with them, they make sure that you are the only one they're taking care of, and they don't wander around to other people and do other things. They are there to take care of you and your needs. Housekeeping is part of the package, and the only things I was interested in were housekeeping and food.

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.

Financial Assistance for Assisted Living in Bellevue

Medicaid in Washington

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.

Other Financial Assistance Programs for Assisted Living

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:

Are bedridden for the majority of the day due to disability or illness

Require a caregiver daily to assist with bathing, toileting, eating or managing a prosthetic device

Have corrected vision that is 5/200 or less in both eyes or has visual field concentric contraction to 5 degrees or less

Are living in a nursing home due to a disability-related loss of mental or physical abilities

For more information about the Aid and Attendance or Household benefits pension supplement program for veterans in the State of Washington, contact the VA St. Paul Pension Management Center at (800) 827-1000.
