Mary Schwartz Summit

Mary Schwartz Summit, also known as Summit at First Hill, sits in Seattle's First Hill neighborhood within walking distance of shopping, dining, and cultural spots, and stands as the only Jewish senior living community in Washington, all while welcoming residents from all backgrounds and fostering a supportive, inclusive atmosphere. The community is a high-rise with 70 licensed beds and offers a range of personalized living options, including Independent Living, Assisted Living, and Memory Support, and there's round-the-clock care from nurses and caregivers for those who need extra help. It belongs to Kline Galland, and the environment embraces Jewish culture and traditions, though anyone can feel valued and connected here thanks to many social, educational, and recreational activities, like movie nights, music lessons, in-house lectures, and special events such as Bistro Nights and the "Life at the Summit" program. Residents can choose between one-bedroom and two-bedroom apartments, with access to a library, walking paths, and a salon, and many describe the accommodations as really nice. Compassionate care extends through comprehensive medication management, help with daily needs like bathing and dressing, memory care, rehabilitation, respite stays, palliative care, hospice, home health, and home care, and there's an emphasis on privacy, dignity, and independence while supporting well-being. Daily amenities include three gourmet meals in the dining room, wellness programs, and many planned outings to shops and cultural events nearby. The community's verified status, reputation for safety and livability, and affiliation with Kline Galland help ensure reliable service. Residents enjoy flexible support and a full calendar of activities, whether joining a resident-run club, library group, or heading out on a shopping trip. Those who live here value strong connections, cultural traditions, and being part of a vibrant group, and there are plenty of options to fit individual preferences and needs.
