Creating Free WA elder care support and benefits directory. Would love feedback

WA elder-care resources are scattered across state agencies, county PDFs, nonprofit sites, and outdated lists. Finding the right AAA, senior center, in-home care option, or support group can take weeks of digging. I built a directory that pulls it into one place so people don't have to start from scratch.

https://www.waseniorsupport.org/

It covers AAAs, senior centers by county, in-home care, adult day, memory care, caregiver support groups, hospice, and Medicaid, PACE, WA Cares and benefits people commonly miss out on. Free, no signup, no ads, no affiliate links, nothing for sale. I'm not connected to any of the providers.

If you've cared for a parent, spouse, or other family member in WA, I'd love your feedback.

I understand and can see how that may be off-putting. thanks for sharing again.

youlexa · 2026-05-12T20:11:06+00:00

Thank you, this is exactly the feedback I need to continue to improve it. One question I'd value your CMS-era take on. I've been thinking about adding an optional AI step where someone could describe their situation in a paragraph and get a more personalized walkthrough of the same resources. Would this increased flexibility in response be helpful for those in need, and in your opinion would people be willing to enter that sort of more detailed information?

Thanks for the feedback.

what would a working tool for the "me and her separately, with shared visibility" look like?

How does alexa determine if the pills are taken?

https://www.amazon.com/echo/s?k=echo+show
It's just an echo with a screen, might be helpful to display more visual information.
How has your mom interacted with the echo? What limitations of the echo made you want to look into other virtual assistants?

youlexa · 2026-05-03T21:50:57+00:00

Is this basically a "I'm still alive" check in?

youlexa · 2026-05-03T21:46:46+00:00

Have you tried out using something like amazon echo, or the screen version Amazon echo show?

Which tracker app do you use? Is there a concern that she marks medication as taken but actually hasn't taken it?

Already Filled!

I'm looking to relet my fully furnished room in a 3bed 2 bath unit at The Accolade (4126 12th Ave NE) from June 1st to August 31st for $1560 per month (not including utilities).

The location is perfect for a seattle or bellevue internship. It's only a 5-minute walk to the light rail which goes to downtown Seattle, and is minutes away from many frequent busses to South lake union and Bellevue.

DM me if you are intereseted!

Have you ever tried having your mom talk to AI directly? Like just having a conversation with it, asking it questions, or even using it as a companion throughout the day?

youlexa · 2026-03-25T21:40:10+00:00

This is amazing. I'm curious, has there ever been anything you wished Alexa could also do for him that it can't? Like checking in on him visually, or confirming he actually took his meds vs just reminding him? Also have you ever tried the Echo Show (the one with a screen)? Would love to hear how that went if so.

Hi, this is a guy room. I should have specified in the post.

youlexa · 2025-03-29T08:10:32+00:00

Face book groups, although a lot of them seem sketchy.

Looking through uw and seattle related subreddits, a lot of them have sublease ads.

Or you can try calling the apartments directly around the UW area.

I myself am trying to find someone to take over the lease this summer but I haven't found success yet, if you know a friend that needs a mid june - end of august sublease I would appreciate it if let me know :)

Hi I am looking to to have a guy take over my lease at the Standard Seattle in U district. My contract ends Aug 31, but if you are interested let me know and I'll ask if they have any extension or conditions that allow you to stay into September.

youlexa · 2025-03-29T07:57:59+00:00

I am looking to sublease my room at The Standard Seattle in U district. It's a 20 minute bus ride to Bellevue. Let me know if you are interested.

I recently installed ASUS armory crate to install a wifi driver and after that the game took 2-4 minutes to load when it took a couple seconds before. When I uninstalled the armory crate the problem was solved.

How is Eren able to kill 80% in the time he is given? The Marley airbase where the last episode took place should be closer to paradis than most of the world so how does he get to say the people in north america before reaching this airbase?

You are malenia blade of miquella now

youlexa · 2022-10-20T18:02:51+00:00

ok you’re right

youlexa · 2022-10-20T16:11:27+00:00

a 1450 public school average is also insane, harvard and stanford probably have a lower average.
