I appreciate the help they give my sister. However I think little to easy on residents getting drunk, ends in another pt. / resident being harmed.

It's a good place for a short and long-term care. It'd be nice if they had AC in the building. Other than that it's okay

Parking was a little funky but they have an extended parking area. The staff was amazing my friend that is staying. There is very happy with them and very happy with their services.

I don’t even want to give them a 1 star review, but I can’t post if I don’t. My son spent almost 6 months in Harborview fighting to live after fentanyl. I spent months at his bedside. He was released to heartwood while we had a wheelchair ramp built and got his dialysis scheduled. He was only there for 17 days before being found unresponsive in his bed. They didn’t even notify me. I only found out 24 hours later when the medical examiner called me. I’ve been trying to get his personal property for over a month. No one ever returns my calls or messages.

Have you already been in touch with Heartwood Extended Healthcare?

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 23, 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 Heartwood Extended Healthcare 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.

(g) Tours: we do not tour communities as a matter of course. Our information comes from the community itself, its state licence record and public sources. We have not toured Heartwood Extended Healthcare.

(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.

(j) Complaints about a referral agency may be filed with the Washington State Office of the Attorney General, Consumer Protection Division (Consumer Resource Center), 800 5th Ave, Suite 2000, Seattle, WA 98104-3188, 1-800-551-4636 in Washington, 1-206-464-6684 from outside the state, https://www.atg.wa.gov/file-complaint.

(k) Neither MyLivingChoice nor anyone who works on referrals for it, nor their immediate family members, has any ownership interest in any community we refer families to.

About the care that is needed (optional, a few words each)

We share with the communities you chose only your name, contact details and care needs; the rest stays with us. Leave blank what you do not know; we can fill it in with you later.

Sending your request signs the Washington statement above with the name you entered, dated now, and authorizes us to share your name, contact details and care needs with the communities or agencies you chose. By submitting, you're okay with us and Heartwood Extended Healthcare reaching out by phone, email or text.Always free for families. If you move in, the community you chose pays us a referral fee, never you; any nearby communities we suggest are chosen by your answers, never by what they pay us. Referral agreements are our only tie to the communities we list. If a community stops meeting our qualifications, for example its licence lapses or it stops accepting referrals, we stop suggesting it. How we work · FAQ
