Altercare Post-Acute Rehab Center sits in Kent with 79 certified beds and a corporate for-profit owner. The numbers that matter most here are clean: five deficiencies on record, none causing harm or involving abuse, and a state inspection completed in July 2025. Nurse staffing runs 3.96 hours per resident day, slightly above the national average, though weekends dip about 12% below weekdays, worth asking about if your family visits then. Staff turnover is 39.5%, better than the 45.8% national figure, which suggests people tend to stay. The trade-off is staffing depth: the government rates that piece 3 out of 5, even as inspections and quality measures both earn top marks.

Tamarack Ridge runs a 96-bed for-profit home in Kent, and its inspection record is the strongest part of the picture: seven deficiencies on file, none serious enough to cause harm, and a survey completed in April 2025. The abuse-related citation is worth asking about directly. Staffing is thinner than average, 3.63 nurse hours per resident day against 3.86 nationally, and weekends dip about 9% below the home's own weekday numbers, so ask how coverage holds up on Saturdays and Sundays. Turnover at 40.4% is better than the 45.8% national figure, which suggests less churn than many competitors. Quality measures score well; staffing is the softer spot.

Majestic Care of Kent runs on 2.92 nurse hours per resident day, roughly a quarter below the national average of 3.86, and staffing thins out further on weekends. That gap matters more when you look at who's providing the care: 64.1% of staff turned over in the past year, against a national rate near 46%. The inspection record is heavy, 41 deficiencies, including one at the harm level and six tied to abuse. A recent inspection in September 2025 means the findings are current, not old history. The quality measure score looks strong, but it's built largely from resident assessments, while the staffing and inspection scores tell a different story about daily conditions.
