Washington

Washington continued its nursing home rankings slide, dropping back seven spots to fall to No. 34 overall, plunging the state into below average territory for the first time.
Washington’s nursing home grades show that care is either good or dangerously bad; the state scored above average grades in half of the the quality measures while scoring failing grades in the remaining categories
Despite above average grades in every staffing measure, Washington managed to score failing grades in every regulatory and advocacy measure.
With 65 percent of Washington nursing homes being cited a severe deficiency—the highest percentage nationally—that means more Washington nursing homes had citations for dangerous conditions than did not.
Less than 3 percent of Washington nursing homes had a deficiency free inspection—one of the nation’s worst rates.
Washington’s nursing home care ranks last in the Pacific Alaska Region.
