Discover innovation and a new way of living life on your terms at Brookdale Olympia West. Here, residents receive personalized memory care programming, as well as a helping hand with medication management, daily housekeeping, meals, and more.

Trained staff members provide person-centered care to residents with Alzheimer’s and other types of dementia. The community’s Clare Bridge program, for example, helps individuals focus on sustaining feelings of belonging, purpose, and safety, while preserving their sense of self. Around six activities are planned and incorporated into residents daily lives, and include a variety of cognitive and physical workouts.

The Solace program adds an additional layer of programming to the Clare Bridge process and provides additional time for grooming, as well as sensory activities filled with music and aromatherapy. Music is a vibrant part of community life, and special touches like sing-alongs, music in the hallways, and church hymns are prevalent.

Residents and families can rest easy knowing professional staff is available 24 hours a day, seven days a week to be alerted to an emergency. A 24-hour security system and keypad entries are also in place to further promote safety. Additionally, staff members are trained to use techniques like physical prompting and cueing to help residents maintain their independence and develop understanding. Lastly, residents are given consistent care assignments throughout their stay. This allows them to be cared for by the same associate, which encourages familiarity and a foundation for long-term relationships.

  • Our Tour Experience

    We toured during Covid, so they could hardly show us much of anything. We were only able to look in the windows at a sample room. And we got to meet with the director in his office just off the main entrance. He was very nice, capable, and gave plenty of information. But I really couldn't imagine moving in without seeing more of the facility.

  • Brookdale is Available for Memory Care in Lacey

    This community is expensive. The care is moderate, it's not the best. It doesn't feel like the aides are as close to the residents, as I've seen in past communities. I've received calls at all hours of the day and night. This is due to the wrong medication being given or other issues. There is no physician on site to assist the residents. The care could be better. However, please check them out. I went with this community because it was close to me. The community won't allow me to come and take my loved one to their medical appointments. I wish I could do this, instead of paying for this service. The community was allowing outdoor visits, but they have stopped due to a spike in cases of the pandemic. I don't think my loved one seems as happy, as the other communities they have been in.

    My mom was moved to another room at one point. When I visited, I noticed that the furniture I brought over was not in her new room. The staff was very unhelpful in tracking it down. It was never found. I assume someone on staff stole it, as it was nice furniture. The staff is pretty useless.
