Aegis Living Lynnwood sits in a tree-lined area just north of Seattle, offering a cozy and intimate setting for seniors who need assisted living, memory care, or respite care. The community has 52 licensed beds and a friendly care team, and Maria Domann leads as general manager. It helps residents stay active and mobile by providing resident parking and both free and paid transportation services, so people who want to get out and about for appointments or events have good support. Staff receive specialized training, and there's always someone to help with daily living needs like bathing, dressing, and medication. People can use wheelchair accessible showers and full tubs, and housekeeping, laundry, and grocery shopping are all part of what's offered, so nobody has to worry about chores.
For meals, there's restaurant-style dining with vegan choices and special diets like gluten-free, low or no sugar, and low or no sodium. Residents can eat at any time throughout the day, order room service, invite guests, and even have private dinners in dedicated rooms. The community feels homey, with a cheerful red front door and living and dining rooms set up for easy gathering. Social and activity calendars stay full, with things like art classes, brain teasers, music therapy, fitness sessions, and activities in the sunny courtyard garden or on outdoor walking paths. Raised gardening beds, crafts, a fireplace, a TV lounge, a game room, a beauty salon, and a barber shop are all available, so residents find lots of ways to stay involved. There's also free Wi-Fi and a bistro-style café, plus options for pet lovers.
For those needing memory care, Aegis Living Lynnwood uses a program called Life's Neighborhood®, focused on helping people with memory loss by building feelings of happiness and joy, not just what they may forget. The secured memory care wing is designed to support those with dementia, and staff create personal care plans that grow with residents' needs. Programs like Montessori activities, reminiscence therapy, and sensory programming (like snoezelen) help with cognitive health. The community features special memory care floor plans and two-bedroom options for those who need it, with secured areas to reduce confusion and prevent wandering. People dealing with Parkinson's also get special care.
Housekeeping and meals are always available, as is support 24/7, and there are in-house therapy services for people who need help recovering from illness or surgery. Transitional and end-of-life care are part of what's offered too, and there's hospice to help residents and families when needed. Those who need a short-term stay-maybe after an injury or just to give a family member a break-can use customizable respite care, which covers everything from daily help to stays of a few weeks or more. For religious support, there are Catholic and Protestant services as well as visits from a chaplain.
Residents can go outside to the patios and garden, spend time with friends in common areas, or relax in their own apartment with one- or two-bedroom floor plans, all designed for comfort and accessibility. Aegis Living Lynnwood tries to help people feel at home while making sure care keeps up as needs change, and the Quick Response AI technology is there to support people when they call for help. Community tours let people see daily life, food, and activities for themselves. The whole place tries to make it easy for people to connect, enjoy good meals, and keep as much independence as possible, whether they need a little help each day or much more. Each resident gets programming matched to their physical and cognitive needs, with a focus on making life pleasant and dignified.
