What this means for your family
Silverado Bellevue is highly regarded for its specialized memory care programming and compassionate, engaging staff. However, because multiple reviewers have raised concerns about staff turnover and medical oversight, we strongly recommend that families ask for specific details on their current nursing leadership and medical record-keeping protocols during your tour.

Key Review Excerpts
“The staff are so very kind and compassionate, the building is truly homey and comfortable, the in-house animals are delightful, and and the activities and care they get are perfectly designed for those with cognitive decline.”
“The turnover in staff has been unheard of. I would say that on average executive directors or directors of wellness do not last more than a year. The amount of medical errors that happen during this time is incredible.”
“Mitchell, the Activities coordinator, puts a lot of passion and thoughtfulness into the activities he coordinates for the residents. He goes above and beyond to make their ADL’s special and also challenges them physically and cognitively specifically to their individual needs.”
