Only One in the Northwest: Celebrating Our 2026 Caring Super Star Award

We’re excited to share that Ida Culver House Broadview has been named a 2026 “Caring Super Star” by Caring.com!

This honor recognizes senior living communities that receive consistently high ratings from residents and their families. The “Super Star” designation is awarded to communities that have earned the Caring Star recognition for three or more years.

We’re especially proud to be the only community in the Northwest to receive a 2026 Caring Star award—our third year in a row! In addition, we’re one of just five communities in the country to receive Caring.com’s new “Resident Recommended” designation, based on the many positive reviews shared by our residents.

What Is the Caring Star Award and Why Does It Matter?

To earn a 2026 Caring Star, communities had to meet rigorous criteria, including:

• • • An overall average rating of 4.5 stars or higher
    • Strong review volume in the last year, including at least one 5-star review in 2025
    • Review responsiveness
    • Validated licensing and inspection reports
    • An extensive audit of every review for finalists

Being awarded the additional designation of Caring Super Star shows our long-term history of resident and family satisfaction. It demonstrates that when people choose Ida Culver House Broadview, they’re choosing an excellent place to live.

Among our Caring.com reviews, many residents and families highlight our beautiful grounds, sense of community, quality of memory care, and engaging activities. Some examples include the following:

When my husband and I visited Ida Culver House Broadview, we knew it was THE place for us. Set on a beautiful, peaceful campus, our apartment is spacious and lovely. Weekly housekeeping and maintenance services free up our time for projects, socializing with our interesting and fun neighbors, travel, and participating in the many exercise, cultural and resident-run activities. The emphasis on safety, balance and prevention of falls is especially appreciated.”

“My parents have been in the memory care (The Terrace) at Ida Culver for over 4 years. The loving and caring staff has been wonderful, the food is very good and my folks have especially enjoyed the various activities offered to the residents. They often have concerts, sing-alongs with a piano player, games and regular chair exercises. The rooms are spacious and the outside grounds are beautifully maintained.
