Avista Yakima

If I were you I would not put my loved one in Avista Yakima the Ed only sees dollar signs when someone Moves In my mom used to live here and the employees did not check on her like I was paying for them to do or get her showers like I was paying for them to do if you care about your parent or grandparent this is not the place for them

What we like the most about the Avista Yakima community is the helpful staff members they have working there. Based on the experience we have had so far, we would recommend them to other families who are looking for a place for their loved ones.

There is a very family like feel to the facility. All of the attendants and directors were very welcoming, and made us feel that they really cared about our father. We were soon recognized as his family and treated as their family as well. They took good care of him And he felt at home. I would highly recommend.

I definitely would say that this is an awesome place. The residents love the staff. The meals need a little improvement, but I love everyone here at this facility. They keep the facility very nice. As soon as we walked in we knew this is the place, everything is taken care of. It's a very nice facility. I'm a perfectionist and this facility passes my expectations.

My 94 y/o mother has unfortunately experienced living in 5 different Assisted Living facilities over the past 6 years. However, we feel that we hit the Jackpot when finding Blossom Place. The onsite leaders are compassionate, friendly and always keep me informed. The care givers are amazing, and attentive. My mother has come to love all of them and is finally comfortable to rely on the facility staff at Blossom Place, rather then always calling me. The facility atmosphere is beautiful, immaculately clean, bright and cheery. The front doors are locked which helps give my mother an added sense of security. The Blossom Place residents are happy, cheerful and engaging with one another. My mother, for the first time in several years has made friends that she actually enjoys "hanging" with. If you need a place for your loved one, Blossom Place is your #1 place to look. Craig Wilson, MBA, RN, CPXP

Some positive things about Blossom Place is that it is a very clean and community. The staff have been very friendly and it is a smaller scale community so it seems more personable that it would at a much larger community.

The community is very clean and neat. I would like more communication from the community but the staff is very nice and friendly. The care is good but I would like them to be sterner and make my loved ones and make him stay groomed.

The number one thing for us is make sure your loved one is capable of this. My mother in law need way more help than what they could provide. We had to provide the sit to stand equipment, they tried to train the staff to use it, but couldn't do that either. We enjoyed the staff but they just were not a position to give the care she needed, however,, they told us, following her assessment, that they could. If your loved is independent , this community would be fine. If they cannot ambulate independently or transfers independently , this is not the place for them.

I toured this facility while looking for a place for my Mother. This is a one story facility but it is a little older. It’s a really nice place and the owner, [Removed], was just amazing. It’s a well-maintained property and the people are nice here. We even got to sit down and eat dinner with the other residents. However, we decided against bringing my mom here because it wasn’t what she needed. I would recommend this facility to other families.

The level of care offered here and the amount of people involved is exceptional. The staff team is very nice, really knowledgeable, and they take the time to answer all of our questions. They do a great job in keeping the facility neat and organized. There right on top with assisting with laundry when needed which has been really nice for us. With another location they weren’t as prompt with that kind of service. They also have all kinds of activities throughout the day. There about two to three things happening every day. It tailored for elderly people; they have this group called “Our Band” which includes local people who are elderly playing in a band. They also have things like games and movies. This morning they were paying bingo at 10:00am. They have things like ice cream socials so it’s a great for the residents to get them out and about from their rooms and socialize. The residents there are so welcoming and friendly surprisingly. I remember on the first day walking in we noticed a lady in her little wheelchair and she asked us “You have someone moving in?”. When we said yes she continued to tell how much of a beautiful place this is and how wonderful the people are. We come to find that many of the residents are like that. I recommend this community to other families.

This is a great community with great care. The staff are nice and were always helpful. We liked that he did not want to leave when it was time. The menu was appealing and he seemed to like the menu. They do have activities that are offered. We liked the community for being a good atmosphere and a clean environment. We would recommend this community for great care.

Very Clean rooms and dinning area but they have Ham on the meals almost all the time and that getting old to eat so much every week. People are nice and staff does a great job but they are I think one maybe two people short on the week ends.

The Blossom Place has been a good experience for my mother. I am impressed with the place and the staff is very caring. They have a RN on staff during the day. The place is clean and the place is small, no more than 50 residents which we like because it's not like a big warehouse. The food she is not too happy with, but she is receiving great care.

[Removed] was very helpful and forthright. The facility looked to be comfortable and friendly.

I toured this community for my parents. They have great staff members that were very helpful and caring. The room that we wanted was to far for my parents to walk, but nice. They had a second person charge that was nice. Over all a nice community.

My paretns were looking for something that was alittle more of what they were use to. This community has great staff and management who were helpful. I would recommend to other who want a smaller living space. Activites were nice with a good variety.

The care my mom received was for 3 weeks but I have no complaints about the care. The staff were wonderful about taking of my mom and helpful to us. Like most places, they seemed a little understaffed. I also asked to make softer foods and thicken her drinks but it seemed to not always be done for my mom. I was also unaware about the non-refundable community fee until signing the paperwork.

My mother-in-law has been doing good at this place. She gets good care from staff who are nice and respectful. The facility is clean to live at and visit. There are activities but my mother-in-law has not joined yet. The food is good and healthy. I absolutely would recommend this community to other who are in need.

I think Blossom Place is a nice community, overall! The staff is super friendly and very helpful. They're very accommodating, and have taken care of any questions or requests that we've had! The facility itself is clean and well kept. I really like their dining area! It feels just like a restaurant, and from what I have heard from my loved ones the food is very good!
