Our read on Lillian Carter Health Center By Harborview
Lillian Carter Health Center By Harborview runs a hundred certified beds in Plains, and the staffing numbers are where the trouble shows. At 2.98 nurse hours per resident day, it sits roughly 23% under the national average of 3.86, and weekends drop about 19% below its own weekday levels, a one-star CMS staffing rating reflects that gap. The record shows 13 deficiencies, none at the harm or jeopardy level, but one is abuse-related, and the most recent inspection was September 2025. Quality and health inspection ratings both land mid-range at three stars. The for-profit LLC structure and thin licensed-nurse hours are worth asking about directly before you decide.
