Avamere at Wenatchee

Avamere offers accommodations and activities for seniors with varying degrees of assistance needs. It's a vibrant, caring community that came highly recommended to us from home Healthcare professionals. It fits our mom's care needs, and encourages her to challenge herself to get stronger and participate in activities.

My Aunt lost her 2 ct diamond ring somewhere in Avamere. This was her wedding ring of her late Husband of 65 years. Nobody at Avamere really cares. I’m pretty sure it has been found and we will never see it again.

We(my wife and I) have lunch in the dining room to be able to socialize with our neighbors. Then we prepare our own evening meal. We really enjoy the musical programs. Suggestion: maybe a musical group could be formed with the residents.

Have lived here since [date removed]. This is a great place in my home town. It is very close to family and friends in Wenatchee. everyone here is so friendly and the food is wonderful. I couldn't be any happier.

I have lived here many years in the assisted living apartments. Love working with the young care givers. They are all so nice. I also like interacting with all the other residents. I took on the roll of "paperboy" delivering all the newspapers. A great way to meet all the residents.

This place has given me a little bit of my home back. I have a great patio and view, just like I had at home. The community was very welcoming and I have made many new friends.

We always tell people that if we could move, we'd move tomorrow. The food is absolutely terrible, the people are all very old and because of that there's not much activity. You have to find something to do yourself. The food is not attractive or good looking, it looks like blobs of this & that. It's very repetitious, and doesn't taste good at all. We end up leaving a good amount of food on our plates and while leaving out of the dining room we notice that others do the same too. In regards to our apartment, I can't complain about that. We have a 1 bedroom / 1 bathroom, with a little balcony. We also have room for our TV which is a good size. I've had to put in a couple maintenance requests and they will come. Sometimes it's very quick, and sometimes you have to wait a little. The longest I've personally had to wait was a couple hours. There aren't many amenities offered, but they do have a bus. So, once a week (if you're quick enough) you can sign up for an hour long scenery drive and they usually take about 12 people - but that's all they really have.

When you walk in the door, you can feel the positive atmosphere. Residents and staff with smiles on their faces (through masks, of course) and the hustle and bustle of activity. A great blend between a well-appointed community and very happy people.

Avamere staff has gone above and beyond for my family and I am so happy my parents get to spend their last years surrounded with such loving people.

We are generally pretty happy with our experience at Avamere at Wenatchee. We were familiar with the facility based on feedback from others that we know who had a good experience there and it also seemed like a quality, clean place. The location is has been great, it is very close by so I can get there quickly if she ever needs anything from me. She has been complaining about the food and quality and makeup of the meals. It started off good but it has recently changed. I would recommend them to others who are looking.

My folks lived on the independent side for 7 years. It was great, they were able to come and go right out their own back door. It allowed them to be very independent. Now my mom has passed away, so we moved my dad to the assisted living side. I am so pleased with the care and kindness my dad receives. All of the staff get 5 stars! You will know when you walk in the front door that Avamere has a great team of friendly, well trained and helpful staff. I am so grateful for their dedication and desire to care for our aging loved ones.

They have a lot of different activities that I do enjoy going to. However it does take awhile to find your way around, they could benefit rom having a map, layout or an orientation. I had to ask around for awhile when I first got here on where to find certain things.

This is the best community for independent living and assisted living in the area. The staff have been great to work with. There can be a slow response due to staffing issues in the dining room. The food taste is superior.

After interviewing other places, we're very happy with Avamere and have recommended them to others. Every time I go in, it always looks really clean, bright, open, and organized. The staff is very friendly, to the residents as well as the families. Overall my dad is happy with the food, and if a meal is too big for him, they're willing to split it in two for a lunch and dinner. I've seen them have parades, and decorate for the holidays, which looks really nice. They have music playing at different times. This past Veterans' Day, they updated the Wall of Veterans. They asked for pictures and brought it current, which was nice. Sometimes I have a little bit of trouble getting invoices from the gal in billing. It can be difficult for me to get ahold of her, and she mails the invoices instead of emailing as I've requested. But she's very friendly, and she does get me the information in the end.

We moved our mother from another assisted living facility to Avamere of Wenatchee. She is so happy! She is delighted with the food especially! She says the people seem happier so she is happier!! She also was pleased with the first haircut she got. That is something that is important to her.

Appreciate shower aides' says help. Food is surprisingly good and on time. Looking forward to hairdresser and bus service. Building is clean inside and out. Our housekeeping is excellent. Staff is friendly and cheerful and responds to me when I press pendant for help. Building is large enough to get walking exercise year-round.

Is always willing to help in any way needed, including management. I've done a great job in working with the covid-19 pandemic. Communication could be better with updates pertaining to residents. I am very happy here, this is where I should be at this time in my life. Always willing to answer my questions. Residents are friendly.

My mother enjoys all of the caregivers. The office staff is friendly. The food is good. Unfortunately, it almost always arrives cold to the room. The facility is kept up nice. It would be nice if they could hire more staff. We have recommended Avamere to friends.
