Peoples Senior Living

This is a humble and cozy assisted living /retirement community. The care staff are very kind. There is always something to keep the residents engaged and entertained. I pray that whatever this community needs to take care of our seniors they receive it. In Jesus name, Amen!

Looks good from the outside but the staff is not competent

I have had nothing but problems with this place since the day I mowed. My mother in their phone lines don't work. They say they know about it, but they've done nothing to fix it. We try to do a change of address for my mother. And then the Post Office recognizes that building as a business and not apartments. Nobody told us about the complete team overall is horrible. Nobody knows what the other person is doing. Nobody follows the rules or regulations. The heart clinic has been trying to call there for 2 days for a nurse so they can discuss something about my mother's care. And they can't get through so they're calling me for different phone numbers. This place is a horrible, it looks great on the outside. Stay far away from here, as you can.

Amazing Experience with Peoples Senior Living

I recently had the pleasure of touring Peoples Senior Living, and I couldn't be more impressed with both the facility and the experience as a whole. From the moment I walked through the door, I could feel the warmth and care that radiates throughout the building. The staff greeted me with genuine smiles and took the time to answer all my questions, making me feel completely at ease. The facility itself is beautiful and well-maintained. The common areas are bright, spacious, and thoughtfully designed, with comfortable seating and plenty of natural light. I left the tour feeling truly inspired and reassured that Peoples Senior Living would be an amazing place for someone to live.

Wonderful experience

I came in to tour this location for my mom and we were so impressed with the staff and the building. The administrator was welcoming and answered all our questions and concerns. The other staff were equally as welcoming and everyone had a smile on their face.

Thank you to the staff that goes above and beyond!

My dad was not happy about having to leave his home, but after a week or so at People’s he is finally perking up. I haven’t heard him crack as many jokes as he does now. His mood has improved so much since his new living situation.

Lovely place

I recently toured Peoples Senior Living and was very impressed. The staff were friendly and genuinely caring, making it clear that they prioritize the well-being of the residents. The facility itself is bright and welcoming, with plenty of common areas for socializing and activities that cater to various interests. I noticed how residents were engaged and happy, which gave me confidence that my parents would thrive here. The dining options looked great, too! Overall, Peoples seems like a wonderful place for my parents, and I highly recommend it to anyone looking for assisted living.

Amazing experience

Wow… what a save by the staff at People’s Senior Living. My friend absolutely loves the friendly staff and yummy food but especially knowing she’ll get assistance with her care when she needs it. Being greeted by the friendly receptionist is the best. I always look forward to my visits!

I spend quite a bit of time here...

I spend quite a bit of time on this campus visiting people. I'm always impressed by the friendly vibe and comfortable environment. It feels like the culture is good. I know that there was new ownership in mid-2023 and I like the improvements and upgrades they are starting to implement.

Safety net provider with a heart

Safety net provider with a heart! They have a mission to serve those who need assisted living at a more affordable price. I witness them coming up with creative ways to support seniors in new ways often. They are a model for the community.

Compassionate Care and Beautiful Apartments!

Having visited numerous assisted living communities, Peoples stands out consistently due to the heartfelt compassion exhibited by its staff toward every resident. This community defines family and friendship. Moreover, since the community has come under new local ownership, the changes have been nothing short of remarkable. The recent renovations reflect the love and passion invested in the care of each person. The upgrades not only enhance the physical spaces but also contribute to the overall well-being and comfort of the residents. The activities are incredible! [name removed] does a phenomenal job planning engaging activities whether it's bingo, manicure day, or live entertainment almost weekly. It is truly wonderful to see such dedication to continuous improvements in a place that already exudes warmth and care.

Been a positive experience

Everything has gone well in the last month since my family member moved in. She seems to be adjusting well she is going to activities that are offered and seems to be making friends. The staff overall is encouraging and nice very positive environment. She seems to be liking the food. Housekeeping is doing a good job keeping things clean and orderly. I would recommend them if asked.

Financial team needs improvement!

Though my loved one had just a short stay at Peoples Retirement Community, everything went just fine! We have no complaints in that aspect of her stay. Our primary concern, however, is the fact that our funding fell through when the financial office reassured us that it would not.

A terrible experience!

We had a horrible experience after moving my father into this community. After he moved out, a lady called and said she needs billing address to send the bill because someone needs to pay for this. My mom asked how much it was going to cost and she said: "I'm not calling to discuss the bill amount, I need the address to send the bill to". I spoke up and asked her to answer mom and she said "Your daughter isn't right, I'll call back when she isn't there" and hung up. She then tried to sell an Assisted Living room to mom and told her that I wasn't welcome in the building. In the room, there were dirty clothes on dresser and floor for two days that weren't my father's. They told my mom that she needed to buy a new bed, then said they would get one from storage.

They owe us our deposit back because thy did not live up to what degree of care they tould us he would have. I saved his life from them.

My father lived at Peoples place for about one week. He was in the memory care unit. He took a shower by himself one night and fell two times in the tub. He managed to drag himself through two doors to the hallway where an employee found him on the floor. They called to say he bumped his head and was being monitored for blood pressure for twenty four hours because that was all the responsibility they were required to provide by law. I went to see him. He asked me to take him to urgent care because he was in so much pain and they were not addressing it. I took him to the emergency room at Tacoma General hospital. Soon the hospital social service rep. approached me with her concern that if I did not file a report they would do this to someone else. His entire right side was black and blue by his injury. They did not tell me because the nurse did not check him for his injury. They said that was all they were required to do. He had seven broken ribs and his right lung was coalapsed. he spent about one month in the hospital. If [removed]. We paid for the time he was there and they also kept the nonrefundable deposit of $1500.00. How can they treat people this way? The last time I wrote a review it was not here when I came back to read it.
