I have a friend who is only 57 and had a major stroke who has been at Life Care one week. Jacob Strong the admissions Director has been extremely helpful and knowledgeable about insurance and HR matters, especially dealing with the insurance!! All the staff are very congenial and helpful regarding requests. The Rehabilitation staff. PT, OT, and Speech therapists are knowledgeable and hard working. They also are so supportive and positive with my friend.<br>Unfortunately they had a sudden outbreak of Covid and had to scramble to provide the needed care and therapies but Melissa Lawrence made it happen regardless of the stress and low staffing.<br>The charge nurses and Aides when above and beyond to get her a much needed shower and hair wash.<br>Today we had an amazing and productive Care team meeting and all are questions were answered and our priority need handled.<br>They are kind and caring to ALL the residents. The food is decent for this kind of facility.<br>I gave it 4 stars because there are some staffing/ issues and some things fall through the cracks but that is a universal health care issue.<br>The rooms are small especially if two clients share a room. My friend is paying out of pocket for a private room.<br>It is also prohibitively expensive if you do not have Medicare or insurance.<br>Insurance compliance is like walking a tight rope but they definitely advocate for their clients. We are a small community and are blessed to have a Rehabilitation Center of this caliber.

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 Life Care Center Of Port Townsend 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.
