About Silverado Bellevue Memory Care Community
Silverado Bellevue is a dedicated memory care community in Bellevue, Washington, where every aspect of the environment — from wide hallways bathed in natural light to purposefully designed outdoor spaces — is built around the needs of people living with dementia. With 56 private rooms, 24-hour licensed nurses, and 100% dementia-certified associates, the community brings together clinical expertise and genuine warmth. Families consistently describe walking in and feeling, immediately, that this is the right place.
Our Care Approach
Silverado Bellevue is entirely focused on dementia care, with all associates dementia-certified and a clinical team that includes 24-hour licensed nurses, a physician medical director, a master's-level social worker, and on-site physical and occupational therapists. The Nexus program — an internationally recognized, evidence-based brain health approach — offers a non-drug path to supporting cognition in earlier stages of dementia, while a sensory program serves residents in later stages.
Family Experience
Families describe the transition to Silverado as unexpectedly reassuring — many expected a long search and instead found themselves ready to move forward after a single visit. The team is praised for clear communication, genuine emotional support, and a culture where family members feel welcome to share meals and stay involved in daily life.

Silverado Bellevue is an exceptional residence for my Mom, Anna. She moved in a couple of months ago and I have not seen her smile so much in a long time. The staff are outstanding people who treat the residents with total respect and care for them completely. So glad my is living at Silverado Bellevue.

Having to place a loved one in memory care is one of the hardest things anyone can face. I’ve had to make that heartbreaking decision twice—first for my husband, who had FTD/ALS, and later for my momma, who lived with complex vascular dementia. Silverado exceeded every expectation. Their staff is truly extraordinary. They are not only highly trained in the complexities of dementia and neurological conditions, but they approach every interaction with patience, dignity, and genuine compassion. They take time to understand each resident as a whole person—who they were, what comforts them, and what brings them moments of joy. Whether it's medical care, emotional support, or simply offering a warm smile, the team consistently goes above and beyond. They also support families in a way that feels rare. They listen, guide, reassure, and help you navigate moments that can feel overwhelming. I always felt informed, included, and supported—never alone in the process. There isn’t another place in the world I would trust more with my loved ones. The staff at Silverado is absolutely amazing, and their dedication makes all the difference!!

I went along with a family friend who is looking at homes for her father, who may need to move this spring. We left Silverado (the Bellevue location) feeling they were very knowledgeable about his special needs. They were all helpful, patient with our questions and kind. And most importantly, appeared very capable of his care. It was a nice open layout and quite inviting. I felt like my friend would be in good hands during, and after his transition. The food must be very good because they sent us home with a pie that was delicious!
Families love this community. See if it’s the right fit for you.
