Serious cites
0

Puyallup Post Acute has 96 certified beds and a staffing rating of 1 out of 5, the weakest mark CMS gives, and the number that should worry you most if you're touring. Its inspection history shows 54 deficiencies on record, including one tied to abuse, though none rose to the level of actual harm or immediate jeopardy. The good news is the quality measure rating sits at 4 out of 5, which reflects how residents' conditions are tracked and managed, and the last inspection was recent, in September 2025. The split is real: clinical outcomes look decent here, but staffing and the sheer volume of past citations are the parts I'd ask hard questions about.

Willow Springs runs 4.15 nurse hours per resident day, about 8% above the national average, and it holds 4 out of 5 stars on both health inspections and quality measures. But the census of 38 deficiencies includes one at the harm level and two tied to abuse, and staff turnover sits at 55.7% against a national 45.8%, the kind of churn that undercuts consistent care no matter how good the hours look on paper. Weekend staffing drops roughly 16% below its own weekday level, and there's a single $21,442 fine on record. The most recent inspection was July 2025, so the picture is current. A corporate-owned home with real strengths and real gaps.

Sunnyside Healthcare Center runs 80 certified beds under corporate for-profit ownership, and the numbers cut in a few directions at once. Nurse staffing sits at 3.62 hours per resident day, about 6% under the national average, and weekends run roughly 11% thinner than weekdays, so coverage tightens exactly when families tend to visit. The inspection record is where the real weight sits: 37 deficiencies, three of them at harm or jeopardy level and three tied to abuse, plus three fines totaling $92,827. What keeps it from looking worse is staff turnover at 21.3%, less than half the national rate, which suggests people stay. The last inspection was in December 2025.

Three Creeks Post Acute is a 48-bed for-profit home in Pullman, and the inspection record is the first thing you'd want to look at. Forty-three deficiencies on the current record, including two at the harm level and four tied to abuse, with two fines totaling $50,850. A one-out-of-five inspection rating backs that up. The staffing side is mixed. Total nurse hours run slightly below the national average, weekends drop about 13% below the home's own weekday level, and turnover sits at 57.1% against a national 45.8%, meaning more than half the nursing staff turns over in a year. Worth asking the administrator directly how they're addressing the inspection findings and what weekend coverage actually looks like.

Landmark Care and Rehabilitation runs 93 beds in Yakima under corporate for-profit ownership, and the numbers pull in two directions. Nurse staffing sits at 3.98 hours per resident day, a bit above the national average, and the 37.5% turnover rate is better than the typical home, though weekends dip about 15% below weekday coverage. The trouble is the inspection record: 64 deficiencies, including 6 at the harm or jeopardy level and 8 tied to abuse, plus three fines totaling $277,867. A 1-out-of-5 health inspection rating against a 4-out-of-5 staffing rating tells you the people are there, but something in the care environment keeps going wrong.

Nurse staffing here runs 3.93 hours per resident day, just a hair above the national average of 3.86, so the day-to-day coverage looks adequate on paper. But weekends drop roughly 11% below the home's own weekday levels, and annual turnover sits at 62.5% against a national average of 45.8%, that's a lot of churn for 44 beds, and constant replacement makes it harder to keep consistent caregivers who know the residents. The inspection record carries 37 deficiencies, four of them serious enough to put residents in harm's way and one tied to abuse, with three fines totaling $63,697. The most recent inspection was August 2025, so the picture is current. For-profit corporate ownership rounds it out.

Birch Creek runs 124 certified beds in Tacoma under for-profit LLC ownership, and its staffing sits at 3.74 nurse hours per resident day, just under the national average of 3.86, with weekends roughly 11% leaner than weekdays. Turnover is the sharper problem: 51.7% of staff leave annually, against 45.8% nationally. The inspection record is what should give you pause. Seventy-five deficiencies are on file, three of them at harm or jeopardy level and ten tied to abuse. One fine totaling $30,240 has been levied, and the last inspection was March 13, 2026. A 1-out-of-5 health inspection rating captures that pattern better than any single number.

Aurora Valley Care runs 105 deficiencies on its current record, three of them at the harm or jeopardy level and nine tied to abuse, a load that says something about how day-to-day care is supervised. Staffing sits at 3.71 hours per resident day, a bit under the national average, and it thins out further on weekends when coverage drops roughly 15% below its own weekday level. Annual turnover of 57.1% means more than half the nursing staff leaves each year, well above the 45.8% national figure. The five-star quality measure score reflects reported care outcomes, but the one-star inspection rating and a $93,457 fine tell a different story.

Brookfield Health and Rehab of Cascadia runs 83 beds in Battle Ground under for-profit LLC ownership, and its nurse staffing sits at 3.46 hours per resident day, roughly 11% under the national average, with weekends dropping about 15% below its own weekday levels. That thin weekend coverage matters because turnover is 65.9%, well above the 45.8% national figure, meaning the aides and nurses who do show up are often new to the building. The inspection history is where the real weight sits: 36 deficiencies on the current record, six at harm or jeopardy level and six abuse-related, plus one fine of $10,358. Quality measures score well, but the staffing and inspection numbers tell the more useful story.

Enumclaw Health and Rehabilitation runs 92 certified beds under for-profit LLC ownership, and its staffing sits at 3.75 nurse hours per resident day, just under the national average of 3.86. The bigger concern is consistency: weekends drop roughly 18% below weekday coverage, so care depends on which day your family member needs help. Staff turnover is 61.5% against a national average of 45.8%, meaning more than half the nursing staff leaves each year. The inspection record shows 67 deficiencies, including two at the harm or jeopardy level and one tied to abuse, with $23,203 in fines and a two-star health inspection rating. The most recent inspection was June 13, 2025, so that record is current.

Fir Lane Care runs 135 certified beds in Shelton under for-profit LLC ownership, and the staffing picture is genuinely better than most: 4.23 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 9% above the national average, with weekends about 10% thinner than weekdays. The problem isn't how many hours get scheduled, it's who's still there to work them. Annual turnover hits 64.5% against a national 45.8%, so nearly two-thirds of the nursing staff leaves each year. That churn sits alongside 77 deficiencies on the current record, three serious enough to threaten harm, five tied to abuse, and $121,488 in fines. A June 2025 inspection is recent, and its one-star health inspection rating reflects what surveyors found.

Nurse staffing at Puget Sound Care averages 4.02 hours per resident day, about 4% above the national figure, which is a real strength. The catch is consistency: weekend coverage drops roughly 16% below the home's own weekday level, so care on Saturdays and Sundays looks thinner than the average suggests. Staff turnover sits at 56% against a national average near 46%, meaning a large share of caregivers are still new to the building. Inspections in January 2026 produced 21 deficiencies, including one causing harm and one tied to abuse, plus an $8,018 fine. Ownership is a for-profit limited liability company.

Regency At The Park runs a corporate-owned, 106-bed home in College Place, and the staffing numbers are genuinely strong, 4.17 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 8% above the national average, with a 42.7% turnover rate that's actually a bit better than the typical facility. Weekends thin out about 14% below weekday coverage, so ask how that plays out on a Sunday. Where the record gets harder to ignore is inspections: 35 deficiencies, four of them serious enough to put residents in harm's way, plus one tied to abuse, and $148,838 in fines. The most recent inspection was in January 2026, so the picture is current, not stale.

Heartwood runs a for-profit shop with 120 beds in Tacoma, and the staffing picture is genuinely mixed. Nurse hours come in at 3.96 per resident day, a hair above the national average, but weekends drop about 11% below what the home staffs on weekdays, a gap families feel most on Saturdays and Sundays. Turnover sits at 42.6%, slightly better than the national 45.8%. The trouble is the inspection record: 82 deficiencies on file, six at harm or jeopardy level, five tied to abuse, and four fines totaling $382,661. The last inspection was March 2026. The staffing numbers look decent; the survey history is what should worry you.

North Bend Post Acute runs 64 beds under for-profit LLC ownership, and the nurse staffing number is 3.58 hours per resident day, roughly 7% under the national average of 3.86, with weekends running about 10% thinner than weekdays. Turnover sits at 42%, which is actually a touch better than the 45.8% national figure, so the problem here isn't retention so much as how few hands are on deck per shift. The inspection record is where it gets serious: 103 deficiencies on file, four at harm or jeopardy level, four tied to abuse, and two fines totaling $206,072. The most recent inspection was March 5, 2025.

Shelton Health And Rehabilitation runs 76 certified beds under for-profit LLC ownership, and its nurse staffing sits at 3.87 hours per resident day, essentially identical to the national average of 3.86, not the cushion you'd hope for. The bigger issues show up in the inspection record: 59 deficiencies, four of them at harm or jeopardy level and five tied to abuse, with $65,213 in fines across three penalties. Staff turnover runs 55.3% against a national 45.8%, and weekend coverage drops about 13% below weekday levels. The most recent inspection was March 2026.

Life Care Center of Richland runs 104 certified beds under corporate for-profit ownership, and the numbers split sharply depending on where you look. Nurse staffing sits at 3.82 hours per resident day, just under the national average of 3.86, but weekends drop roughly 19% below the home's own weekday level, and annual turnover hits 55.8% against a national 45.8%. The inspection record is the heavier concern: 73 deficiencies on file, including 5 at harm or jeopardy level and 9 tied to abuse, with two fines totaling $109,736. The most recent inspection was July 2025. Quality measures score well, but staffing and inspection results are what a family should weigh here.

Colfax Health And Rehabilitation Of Cascadia runs 55 beds under for-profit LLC ownership, and the numbers that matter most here are the inspection and staffing ones. State surveyors cited 64 deficiencies on the current record, four of them at the harm or jeopardy level, plus four abuse-related findings and $81,864 in fines across three penalties, with the most recent inspection dated June 2025. Nurse staffing sits at 3.67 hours per resident day, roughly 5% under the national average, and weekends run about 13% below the home's own weekday coverage. Staff turnover is 71.4%, well above the 45.8% national figure, meaning more than two-thirds of the caregiver workforce turns over annually. The quality measure score looks strong, but consistent staffing and a clean inspection record are what hold up day to day.

Bridge Crest runs 4.10 nurse staffing hours per resident day, roughly 6% above the national average, and that earned it 4 out of 5 stars on the CMS staffing measure. But weekend coverage drops about 15% below its own weekday level, so the help you see on a Tuesday may not be there on a Sunday. Turnover tells the bigger story: 63.3% of staff leave each year against a national 45.8%, meaning most of the people caring for your relative will be gone within two years. The inspection record shows 53 deficiencies, eight involving harm or jeopardy and four tied to abuse, with five fines totaling $212,847. A for-profit LLC with a two-star inspection rating carries real risk.

Sullivan Park runs about 92 deficiencies on its current record, including two at the harm level and eight tied to abuse, that's a lot of paper for a 125-bed building, and it's the main reason the state's last look at the place came in March 2025 with a 2-star inspection result. Nurse staffing sits at 3.68 hours per resident day, a bit under the national average, and it thins out further on weekends, down roughly 14% from weekday coverage. With 52.3% annual turnover, nearly half the nursing staff is replaced every year, which makes consistent care hard to hold onto. Two fines totaling $126,188 round out the picture.
