Our families experience

I would give them all a five we are very happy with everything my mother in law doesn't partake in the activities so I really can't speak for that. The apartment size is bigger than we thought lots of closet space. All of the staff there is very friendly. The amazing thing is the other people that stay there are very friendly and helpful. They seemed to be always smiling.

About the facility

Putting More Life Into Assisted Living


We think your senior living should have more life in it. Our residents take advantage of assisted living services located in scenic Federal Way, Washington. Our campus is in a lovely, quiet neighborhood just off Pacific Highway South in downtown Federal Way. Residents are able to walk to several stores close to our neighborhood, and we are a short drive to The Commons at Federal Way, a mall with many restaurants, shops, banks, and a movie theater.

Become one of our residents and you'll have access to a huge range of interesting things to do, and interesting people to do them with. Our activities list changes every single day, with events like Bingo groups, weekly card games, and fitness groups. So when our residents aren't out enjoying all that our beautiful city has to offer, they're often enjoying in-house entertainment and activities.

A few of our residents' favorites include:
Game nights
Exercise classes
Scenic tours
Church services
Lunch outings
Themed dinners and parties?

As a resident here, you and your loved ones will also enjoy peace of mind, as we have emergency response available 24/7, along with 24-hour security. And unlike a nursing home, we are a community of apartment homes where...

Review for Brookdale Federal Way

Definitely would recommend to others. Everyone there is so helpful. Especially [name removed] she has helped us and guided us through everything. My mother-in-law is not easy to deal with but they are breaking through her shell. She is seeming to like it there now.

We had the best experience here. We are so excited to have our Mom be placed in this facility. The people here are so friendly and helpful. Everyone seems so happy to be there and work here. The accessibility is very good for our mom in the rooms. We give them five stars.

Great option for families needing help

The meals and dining gets a 3 based on parents feedback and the activities gets an na as parents not participating yet. We appreciate that there are trained people to help them at all times. Mom has mentioned some delays in response time. But she recognizes that the caretakers are helping a lot of people and can't be a multi places

Friendly staff

The room and toilet not clean for more than a week now. Boarding and lodging cost unreasonable for a elderly person with next to zero income. Yes, I would recommend this community to other families because they work with Medicaid. If private pay only, I wouldn't.

Not great for seniors with memory loss or low vision

My mom spent over two years here. She paid for shower assistance twice a week and meds management. She had severe short-term memory loss and was legally blind. Although kind, Brookdale staff, with a few exceptions, don't treat residents as unique individuals. They often don't read menus to blind residents. They skip showers for residents with memory loss who don't want one "right now", although the resident doesn't understand that their next chance won't be for 3-4 days. They often don't notice behavior changes that indicate medical issues in people with dementia. Some activities that should be accessible with low vision are not. Facility maintenance is spotty. No cold water in rooms for a week, entry buzzer that malfunctions leaving residents who return after five waiting until they can flag someone down, and malfunctioning emergency alerts. If your loved one can't or won't advocate for their needs, I don't recommend this facility.

Our experience at Brookdale Federal Way

My loved one was a resident at Brookdale Federal Way for almost a year. The staff was very friendly, but the management with follow-through was terrible. I would not recommend this place for someone who needs to be checked up on frequently.

I felt that the staff was very caring during our experience here. The facility itself was a little older, but once we got in it did not bother us at all. The room sizes are very big and the facility overall was great. I would recommend Brookdale Federal Way to others looking.

Good place for my mom

It's been a great for my mom. They have activities that are some of the ones she used to enjoy before moving to the community. The staff are very good, friendly, and responsive. The meals and snacks are great and the offer a variety. I chose this community because the value and they offer the Medicaid spend down if she needs it one day. We looked at others, and chose this one. I would recommend this community. Shes made friends and seems content there. When COVID started they aggressively went into lock down to keep the residents safe. They are quick to call with any issues and there's good communication.

Brookdale - a wonderful place for mom

Brookdale Federal Way is a wonderful place and I will forever be grateful for the all the help they gave my mother. They have many caring people who go out of their way to assist people in need. It's a job most of us would run away from, but somehow they have they have managed to pull in some really wonderful caretakers.

I love Brookdale Federal Way!

I love it here at Brookdale Federal Way. It is like one big family. There are lots of activities to choose from. And the staff makes you feel right at home. It is such a relief to have help with daily needs I had difficulty doing myself. At first I had not decided if I was going to stay long term but now after eight months I’m sold and I will be staying for the foreseeable future.

THE WORST PLACE TO DO BUSINESS WITH

i'm totally disappointed in this place. I Dealt with Brookdale two and half years ago, and currently looking for a place for my Father. This is the last place you want to deal with. High pressure sales. Of course when your stressed and looking for a place for a Loved one. This group does not care about anything but a sale. the CEO makes 50 MILLION a year. His front door cost more than an entire stay at Brookdale. Shameful... Trying to get my sister-in-law into their place was unacceptable. She was in a rehabilitation place and when cleared , move to Brookdale. High Pressure and so called sales on the price,,,, NOT!!! My sister-in law died before she could move. $7900.00 dollars later, she dead so no refund, o yea they refunded $660.00. Big [removed] deal. She was never there, never ate, nothing. Compassion, none. Because 50 MILLION is not enough. GREED!!! I even paid for installation of cable in the room we were given. It was a model or a store room. Remebersted,, not even. To MR. CEO, you are Disgrace to the heath care system. Rip off the people who are hurting just o you can get a new door knob or what ever your to poor to get. keep going, your company is Terrible. I would do your job for a 100th of what you get excessively get paid. I'd do why better because you DON'T CARE. Hope your whole team are proud of themselves, 'cuz they are not even close to being good at their job. Be proud MR.CEO< you ripped off another person and their family. More money better stock price, helping people,,not on you or list of priorities or any of your staff. Ya it's just a review, and no one at brookdale cares,so I hope your able to get a new door knob. I will definitely will tell everyone I know. If I get One, Two, Or 50, to not do any business with brookdale or emirates.,that would be Great to cost you a few no takers. Have a wonderful life, and I HOPE the Worst for you and your family. Up Yours,, [name removed] [removed] Call !!!! You wont, to busy, don't care, and chicken. Have a nice day. Just let it slide, you wont even care.!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Staff Is Not Friendly

I am not pleased with this location at all. If it had been up to me I would not have placed my mother here. My mom is not happy here at all she is not eating which as a result she has lost a tremendous loss of weight. My mom does not like to be around crowds so when she does eat she takes her meals in her room and there is an extra $5.00 charge for them to deliver her food. She is not taking her medication as she should be because from what I can tell they are not doing wellness checks on her they are leaving it up to her to take her pills and she has dementia so that is an issue. Since I am not my mother's medical power of attorney they do not tell me anything when I ask questions. They don't seem to engage the residents in any activities.

NOT A SAFE PLACE FOR MOM

Brookdale in FW is not a safe place for my mom she has dementia . I know Brookdale has specialize assisted living for memory care & Dementia but not in Federal Way. I was told by an "supervisor there when my mom dementia gets worse she can no longer live there"? So why get comfortable there then have to move again ? If this is a professional organization they would want the best place for my mom. I'm working on getting my mom the best place to live without worrying that she would walk out that front door and get lost. It happens a lot with people with dementia . There should be alarm on the main door but there's not none.

Tips for evaluating your community options

Safety is a primary concern when seniors and their families look for Assisted Living. To ensure that a community meets your needs and expectations, we recommend that seniors and family members:

  • Tour the location: Touring allows you to speak to current residents and staff, and helps you confirm the accuracy of the community description and photos. Use our touring checklist to help guide your visit.

  • Confirm the availability of required services: Before you commit, make sure that the community offers all the services your senior needs, and that those services can be provided within your budget.

  • Know the Washington regulations for Assisted Living: Each state has its own laws and inspections processes to ensure seniors reside in a safe environment. Depending on your state, you may even be able to look up inspection reports for the community(ies) you’re considering. Learn more about Washington regulations for Assisted Living.
