I do not recommend this place for your loved one. Shortly after my dad moved there. He on two different visits told me that he felt like he was being punished. After a Mother’s Day celebration, he had several visitors.I visited him on Wednesday. He was in his room.My dad said he had been in his room for three days and just wanted to be in the main room with everyone else. I told Ruby his request.She said that my dad had too many visitors and had to think about her other residents.she was punishing him for having visitors. I reported her to the abuse hotline two times.This is not all that was disturbing!

My mom was in hospice at Soundview. Ruby and Larry took the best care of her. They are so thoughtful and caring. They see each individual and have a deep understanding of how to treat people with kindness, love, and respect. Their experience with all kinds of health issues is obvious. The people (as well as the view) are spectacular. In addition to Mom, they greatly supported our whole family. They have my deep gratitude, always.

The staff and owners are very kind and thoughtful about the residents who live here. Our mother was cared for in a tender loving way. Thank you.

My brother was taken care of at Soundview for about a year and a half. I cannot say enough good about the care he received there. The owners were always sensitive about his needs and several times they went out of their way to make sure his meds were correct. My husband and I both deeply appreciate the kindness and attention to detail the owners always gave him.

My Grandma lived at Sound View Care center for the last couple years of her life. I want to thank the staff there for making those last couple years so wonderful for her. Also for all of us when we would come visit. The facility is gorgeous with the most amazing views of the Puget Sound. My grandma loved taking in the breathtaking views. The owners and staff were always so kind to me when I would visit and my grandma always had great things to say about them. Especially Louis! She adored him. So if you are looking for a place to put your loved one then I would highly recommend Sound View Care.

(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 Soundview Estates Adult Family Homes 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.
