Bridgeport Place, located in University Place, Washington, is a senior living community that primarily offers independent living services, with a focus on providing residents with a supportive, maintenance-free environment. The facility caters to older adults who seek the convenience of meal preparation, housekeeping, scheduled transportation, and engagement in organized activities, and does not currently offer assisted living or memory care as part of its advertised care types as of June 2024. The community features shared amenities including common areas for socializing, a library, and access to various fitness programs, supporting a balanced and active lifestyle for its residents.
Although public sources do not list Bridgeport Place as providing advanced medical or personal care services such as 12-16 hour nursing coverage, memory care, or diabetes care, and there is no mention of amenities such as wander guards, secured memory neighborhoods, or clinical service support beyond basic wellness checks, reviews from residents and families often highlight satisfaction with the staff’s responsiveness to care needs and overall attention to resident well-being. Community members report that staff—especially those administering medications—are attentive and dedicated to fostering residents’ safety, dignity, and comfort. Cleanliness, comfortable accommodations, and a welcoming atmosphere are frequently mentioned as strengths, while organized activities, games, arts and crafts, gardening, and occasional outings contribute to a vibrant community environment. A fitness center is available onsite for residents interested in maintaining physical activity.
While the community does not offer regularly scheduled medical transportation, it facilitates transportation arrangements for non-medical purposes, assisting residents in accessing shopping, social events, or local outings as needed.
Some reviews note previous concerns about staffing levels, support during resident transfers, and menu accommodations for specialized dietary requirements; however, the majority of feedback centers on a strong sense of security and camaraderie among residents, supported by the community’s efforts to encourage friendships and quickly address concerns.
As of June 2024, Bridgeport Place remains a community tailored to independent seniors, providing essential services to support a comfortable lifestyle, but does not provide the specialized health or personal care offerings found in dedicated assisted living or memory care facilities. Residents and their families are advised to inquire directly with Bridgeport Place regarding current services and support available, as offerings may change or be expanded in the future.
