Nursing Home · Seattle, WA

Overview of Keystone

Located at 3515 Woodland Park Ave N in Seattle’s Woodland Park neighborhood, Keystone is a 64-bed behavioral health licensed residential care facility 3.7 miles from downtown. The community maintains a perfect 100% occupancy, ranking 1st of 310 Washington SNFs.

Modern 1-bed, 1-bath units feature high ceilings to 12.5 feet, full-wall windows, and hard-surface plank flooring. The facility provides fitness, patio, laundry, outdoor seating, and welcomes pets.

Hours: Monday–Friday, 9 AM–5 PM. Starting rent is $1,729/month.

Fifty-two deficiencies have been documented over four years, exceeding the Washington average of 31 by 68% and averaging 13/year compared to the state average of 7.8.

The deficiency pattern concentrates overwhelmingly on fire safety code violations spanning repeated inspection cycles. Sprinkler heads loaded with debris, malfunctioning fire alarm systems with smoke alarms not reporting to the panel, obstructed exit pathways (basement hallway blocked by storage items including BBQ grills), and missing documentation for mandatory fire safety maintenance and testing recur across multiple inspection reports. Gaps include unmet fire-door inspections, fire-resistance-rated construction inspections, sprinkler system quarterly/annual/5-year tests, fire alarm certification, emergency lighting activation tests, carbon monoxide alarm maintenance, and portable fire extinguisher servicing. Missing fire department connection caps and exposed electrical wiring have been identified.

A substantiated January 2023 complaint documented medication administered to the wrong resident, resulting in hospitalization, with allegations of staff cover-up (follow-up found deficient practice but no failed provider practice for cover-up allegations). An August 2024 complaint substantiated failure to provide a discharge letter after a resident altercation, violating resident rights regulations. Additional documented deficiencies include missing on-site disaster manual, temperature control failures, inadequate hot water temperature ranges in resident apartments, background check failures for three staff members, and tuberculosis testing gaps.

The June 2025 re-inspection confirmed some corrections of prior deficiencies but identified ongoing debris on sprinkler heads, fire alarm maintenance failures, and blocked exit paths. A May 2025 complaint investigation confirmed that multiple prior deficiencies remained uncorrected at that time.

No fines or license suspensions appear in available reports. The inspection trajectory shows persistent fire safety noncompliance with incremental corrective efforts but unresolved systemic violations.

Keystone serves independent older adults in Seattle’s walkable Woodland Park neighborhood seeking urban residential options with modern housing and community integration, though the facility’s 100% occupancy and fire safety deficiency pattern reflect the distinct market positioning and regulatory challenges within its operational context.

Inspection Reports Summary Info An editor-reviewed summary of the themes and findings across this facility's recent inspection reports.

The most recent inspection on June 16, 2025, found that the facility corrected prior fire safety deficiencies but still cited issues with debris on sprinkler heads, fire alarm system maintenance, and blocked exit paths. Earlier inspections showed recurring fire safety code violations, including missing documentation for sprinkler and fire alarm maintenance, obstructed exit routes, and blocked sprinkler risers. A substantiated complaint investigation in August 2024 identified a deficiency related to failure to provide a discharge letter after a resident altercation, and prior complaint investigations confirmed fire safety noncompliance. Enforcement actions such as fines or license suspensions were not listed in the available reports. The facility’s inspection history shows ongoing challenges with fire safety compliance, though the most recent inspection indicates some corrective progress.
