Our musical duo, Patti and Phillip, have performed at the Lodge multiple times. We are always impressed by the loving care and enthusiasm of the staff. A bright and cheery place with the wonderful aim of celebrating seniors and memory care residents with the respect and joy that they so deserve. Every effort was made to ensure that our performance could be done with ease and connection. Kudos to everyone for their work and love!

Real food, real freedom. The residents can eat on their own schedule. For my mom, that freedom will make a big difference in her choice to move because she feels respected and in control. This is a little thing but it makes a big difference when compared to other assisted living companies.

Aegis Lodge actually feels like home. What really struck me was how cozy everything feels. There are little nooks for reading, spots to play chess or just chat near the fireplace. It doesn’t feel institutional at all. My aunt lives at an assisted living facility that feels like a hospital. I will be getting her to tour here.

My family is grateful for the kind and compassionate staff who make our Mom feel well cared for. The beautiful natural setting surrounded by trees is peaceful and make her feel she lives in a treehouse. They have a variety of fun daily activities and outings, and she's already met a few friends to dine with. The Chef works with her diet restrictions and prepares delicious meals. We are greeted warmly when we visit and feel like part of a big family now. Thank you Aegis Lodge! ♥

Aegis Lodge has given my family the ultimate gift. After 2 years as primary caregiver for my mom at home, the move to Aegis Lodge has allowed me to return to the role of daughter. My time and energy are spent on love and connection rather than physical tasks. The staff genuinely cares for my mom and has taken the time to get to know her. Her care needs are met consistently and always with respect for her dignity. I can sleep at night knowing mom is safe and comfortable.

Washington asks us to share this statement and gather a short intake first

Read the statement, add what you can below (a few words each, all optional), and Send signs it with the name you entered.

Washington disclosure statement, dated October 28, 2026, under the Elder and Vulnerable Adult Referral Agency Act (RCW 18.330).

(a) Agency: MyLivingChoice LLC (MyLivingChoice.com), 8705 N. Cypress Ct, Kansas City, MO 64156, (816) 226-7772.

(b) Client: the person sending this request.

(c) Fees: you pay us nothing. If you move into a community we introduced you to, that community pays us a referral fee computed as a percentage of your first month's rent and care charges, invoiced to the community after you move in. If you ask, we will tell you the amount of the fee for any community we refer you to.

(d) Services: MyLivingChoice is a free service that helps families find senior living. We gather a short intake about the care needed, suggest communities that appear able to meet those needs, and introduce you to the ones you choose. For you specifically, we will introduce you to Aegis Lodge Kirkland and share with it your name, contact details and the care needs you described, nothing more.

(e) We will never ask you to waive any claim for loss of personal property or injury, or any right you have under state or federal law.

(f) We work with both you and the community in the same transaction: the community pays us, and we are introducing you to it. To obtain or share confidential health care information about the person who needs care we need your authorization, which you give for the communities named above by acknowledging this statement.

(h) You may stop using our service, or switch to another referral agency, at any time and for any reason, with no penalty and no cancellation fee.

(i) Refunds: because you pay us nothing, there is nothing to refund to you. If a community pays us a fee for your placement and the resident dies, is hospitalized or moves to another setting for more appropriate care within the first thirty days after admission, we refund the community a prorated share of the fee for the days not used, as RCW 18.330.090 requires.
