Tacoma Lutheran Retirement Community Description
Our residents are the focus of everything we do—the sole reason for our existence as a senior living organization. It truly is as simple as that. We seek to make a positive, lasting impact on the people who rely on us for support and call eliseo their home.
All programming is planned with the residents’ input and is continually based on what is in our residents’ best interests and desires. Numerous activities are offered to satisfy a variety of interests. Bus rides lead to great adventures near and far, including fishing trips, fun afternoons at the beach and picnic lunch adventures to the Mt. Rainier Scenic Railroad, to name a few.
Cooking in our resident kitchen, creating beautiful art and enjoying a variety of entertainment, including string bands, professional dancers from around the world, and so much more are what makes eliseo one of the best places to retire in Washington state.

Review Summary
The following is an AI generated summary of the reviews of the community from across the web.
Reviews of senior living facilities reveal a mixed bag of experiences, ranging from exceptional care and gratitude towards staff to concerns over neglect, staffing issues, and communication problems. Some reviewers express deep appreciation for the care their loved ones received, highlighting attentive, loving staff, and well-managed facilities that made residents feel safe and cared for. Positive experiences include detailed accounts of personalized care, such as ensuring residents are warm and comfortable, and keeping families well-informed.
However, several reviews raise serious concerns about the level of care and management at some facilities. Issues cited include minimal care, unattended residents leading to depression, disorganization, and a lack of updates on important health information such as virus outbreaks. Staffing shortages are mentioned, affecting both the quality of care for residents and the work environment for employees. Some reviewers report a lack of professionalism and empathy from staff, with instances of rudeness and neglect.
Financial and administrative frustrations are also noted, with complaints about the high cost of care, billing problems, and difficulties with acceptance based on Medicare coverage. The loss of personal items and inadequate responses to such losses are additional points of dissatisfaction.
Despite these challenges, there are accounts of excellent nursing care, good food, and a friendly, open atmosphere in some facilities. The importance of a supportive and skilled staff is a common theme in positive reviews, as is the value of a facility that offers a continuum of care from independent living to memory care.
In summary, while some families report positive experiences with senior living facilities, appreciating the care and support provided, others highlight significant areas for improvement, particularly in staffing, communication, and the handling of personal belongings and administrative matters.
