University House Issaquah is a premier destination for retirement living, where residents share a passion for knowledge, a fascination with art and culture, and the desire to stay active in mind, body, and spirit.
Our community is devoted to promoting healthy living through a wealth of programming, fine dining, and an energetic, friendly atmosphere.
Nestled in the foothills of the Cascade Mountains, residents enjoy the small town charm of Issaquah and inspiring views of nature, while still being close to the bustling city centers of Seattle and Bellevue.
While we offer plenty of social activities, our in-home assisted living services provide the peace of mind that you can get help with activities of daily living when you need it-- in your original apartment home. And because of our unique partnership with the University of Washington School of Nursing, residents benefit from innovative wellness and active aging programs.
Our Community Health Director and supporting team provide professional and compassionate assisted living services in the privacy and comfort of your own apartment home.
In addition to ongoing case management, our team will work with you to develop a holistic, individualized care and wellness plan. We offer an extensive range of services*, including:
- Bathing, dressing, grooming, and continence support
- Mobility, transfer, and escort assistance
- Medication management and assistance
