Assisted Living Tidbits:

Bellevue has a large senior population a few percent higher than our national average. However, for a growing city of this size, we feel that Bellevue is under-represented in terms of the number of licensed assisted living facilities within it's city limits. We found only two so far (Usually cities of this size have closer to a dozen). Naturally, the surrounding cities, and Seattle will have their offerings for senior living and Alzheimer's care - but we expect Bellevue to have more to offer in the next several years.

The City of Bellevue is located within 'arm's reach' of larger Seattle to the west, and just to the southwest of Redmond Although Bellevue, being securely nestled within a large metropolitan area, and all of the services and amenities that come with being in an urban environment - Bellevue offers several very good senior services and programs to serve it's local senior population.

For starters, the City of Bellevue operates the North Bellevue Community Center, which is a meeting place for seniors, and offers programs and services targeted at Bellevue's senior population. The Center is open from 8:30 am to 9pm Monday thru Thursday, and on Friday it is open until 6pm. The Center is closed on weekends, except in the case of special events or rentals.

The Center offers a great number of good programs for seniors, many of them focusing on health and wellness. There are also programs for entertainment, socialization, information and referrals, and more. We found a class schedule on the City's website that looks like it is updated every season. The one we were able to view at the time of this writing was for summer. We saw classes and clinics available to seniors on everything from foot care, to Senior Rights Assistance seminars, to AARP Driver Safety. To view the most recent schedule, and to see information on the Community Center, please go to the City of Bellevue's Parks & Rec section here.

Another important program offered by the community center, in conjunction with Senior Services' 'Meals on Wheels' program, is to 'provide meals to homebound Bellevue area seniors at a low cost.' To find out more information about the 'meals on wheels' program, and to sign up for the program, please call 206-727-6242

Another place to look for senior care in Bellevue is with the Overlake Hospital Medical Center. The center's website has a senior care page that offers an overview of it's award-winning (Community Health Leadership Award) services. You will be able to view their Senior Care Overview brochure, that talks about the hospital's Assisted Living Clinics, programs and classes for caregivers, community case management, and more. To view the brochure, please go here.

Lastly, the City of Bellevue falls under the Seattle/King County Agency on Aging (or Aging and Disability Services). The agency exists to help local seniors to remain healthy and independent, and to promote quality of life. Some of the services provided by the AAA are: Adult Day Services; Case Management; Caregiver Management and Support; Transportation; Elder Abuse Preventions and much more. To see a list of all of the programs offered, and to learn more about the Seattle/ King County area agency on aging, please call (206) 684-0660 or visit the agency webpage.
