“We are so lucky to have found Deer Ridge for our dad! The staff (especially Jennifer, Shawn, Saporia, and Ken) went above and beyond from our first phone call, tours, questions, move in day and beyond. Deer Ridge is clean, professional, caring and skilled at what they do. So thankful this is where our dad is cared for!”

How families pay for memory care in Washington
Most families in Washington pay for assisted living, memory care and independent living out of pocket at first, often drawing on savings, pensions and the proceeds from selling a home. Long-term care insurance, when a family member holds a policy, can help cover part of the monthly cost, though the terms and waiting periods vary by policy. Veterans and surviving spouses may qualify for VA Aid and Attendance, a benefit that adds a monthly amount on top of a regular VA pension for those who need help with daily activities, and it can be applied toward the cost of assisted living or memory care.
