Five Stars for Madrona House and its Memory Care Unit
reviewed on: 06/01/2015 by Joyce Johnson, RNI am a registered nurse working at a Regional Medical Center, in Kitsap County, with 11 years experience. I have been a hospice respite volunteer and worked as an assistant manager in an adult family home on Bainbridge Island, prior to becoming a nurse. My 94 year-old mother lived with me in our home until December 2013 when her dementia progressed to a point when she needed 24 hour care support while I worked and on those nights prior, when I needed to sleep. I brought in private and agency help as long as I could but but that became very expensive and stressful when care providers had to cancel with short notice. My first step was to place mom in a "daycare" environment at a Poulsbo Assisted Living facility that had a locked dementia unit, on days that I worked, picking her up each evening after I got off work. I packed her lunch/dinner each day as she had particular tastes. This arrangement was stressful to her, though the staff was very caring. She required lorazepam 1-2 times every day she attended: there was little organized activity, most of the caregivers spoke English as a second language, and she didn't know what to do with herself. She would have enjoyed TV but they kept the volume very low so as to not aggitate some of the residents. I next placed her in a new adult family home on Bainbridge, believing the smaller venue would be a better fit. Having enjoyed working at one prior to nursing school, I had a good understanding of staffing needs fluxing with varying levels of care needs of 1-6 residents. One of the caregivers had worked as a private pay caregiver for mom in the past which was a huge plus, as mom adored her. After three weeks, I realized some of her care needs were not being met, particularly in the area of toileting, as she was not one to announce her needs and managed herself as best she could. The staff, at the time, had 1 or 2 total care residents which made it harder to coordinate, minimally, hourly rounding (routinely done in the hospital setting). Madrona House had only been open a couple of months when I rather frantically decided I had to move mom again, just a couple days after Christmas, 2013. I called and received a tour the next morning. Oh, my gosh! It was (and still is!) a wonderfully warm and inviting environment, with very engaged CNAs and nurses, under the direction, on the Memory Unit, of Sol Johnson, a gifted RN whom I have known for over 15 years, having known her to be a well-respected and valued (by staff and residents) Director of Nursing at Martha & Mary's, when I was a nursing student, privy to staff conversations. Mitzi, the Managing Director, a lifetime Islander, was (and is) wonderful to work with: engaging with professional behaviors, compassionate and passionate about meeting the needs, holistically, of all of the residents, from those living independently to mom's group of memory care residents. Her office is always open, I find her frequently up on the units interacting with the residents, addressing each by name with warmth and respect. Mom had only a very few doses of lorazepam in the beginning week of her transition to Madrona House on Jan 2rd, 2013. Even though I felt confident that this was the perfect fit for mom, I kept my professional eyes and ears open for several months, going at odd times of day, different days of the week, calling to speak directly to her, visiting at meal times, randomly joining in her resident activities. I visited 3-4 days every week, still do at least twice each week, and feel extremely good about every aspect of her care. And SHE likes her home. At 94, she enjoys the family style seating at mealtime, participates in all activities that involve singing, music, and exercising of any kind. You should see their monthly activity calendar detailing every activity planned. It is amazing! (twice weekly Yoga, weekly Tai Chi Qi Gong, weekly Physical Therapist led exercising, walking club, exercising with Debbie). The Life Enrichment Coordinator, Janice Donald, is one of the most positive, engergetic women I have ever had the pleasure to know. She is right "in the moment" with all of the residents, almost charismatic in her ability to getting residents engaged in incredible list of activities presented each day. I cannot speak highly enough of the quality of care mom receives at Madrona House. I am extremely grateful to have made that connection. The 24/7 CNAs working there are all quality people, truly dedicated to assisting these residents with all of their daily/nightly activities, always cheerful and warm.
Great facility, staff.

Committed and Caring Staff
reviewed on: 06/06/2017 by Alexa RosenthalBoth my parents live at the Madrona House on Bainbridge Island. My father lives in Assisted Living and my mother lives in Memory Care. I moved my parents from the east coast. This was a very big decision and we have no regrets. The staff is caring and committed to each and every resident. My parents feel safe and well cared for. Communication with staff and management is productive, effective and positive. I am thankful to have my parents living so close to me in a facility that respects my parents and supports me and my whole family in a process that is not always easy.
Madrona House--My Mom is thriving in this caring community!
reviewed on: 04/18/2019 by Danna BrumleyMy Mother has been a resident at Madrona House on Bainbridge Island for nearly a year. As she is suffering from Alzheimer's disease, she is in need of 24 hr care. My father had done all he could for 6 years, but it was too much for his 80+ years! Though these transitions are always very difficult, the staff at Madrona was incredibly kind and did all they could to help us through it. Their sincere sympathy and caring attitudes went such a long way in assuaging the inevitable guilt and self-doubt that accompanies making the decision to move your loved one into a care facility. The best part is that my Mom is thriving! She is eating better and healthier and the staff were thoughtful (and experienced) enough to suggest she be served finger foods or have her food cut up so she could feed herself (as she is no longer able to hold utensils). She gets exercise, she has friends and she adores the daily music and many other options provided by the wonderful Activities Directors. Finally, I must commend the Madrona Staff for their deep commitment to constantly improve their quality of care and also for helping the residents' families adjust to this huge change by holding monthly social gatherings, meetings with helpful speakers and topics and providing much needed resources for this new phase of life. I feel exceedingly grateful to have Madrona House in our community. If you can no longer care for your loved one at home, there's another kind of family that can provide the care in a professional way, but just as important; in a compassionate way.
