Park Place operates 156 assisted living beds at 6900 37th Avenue South in Seattle’s South End neighborhood, maintaining 92% occupancy; well above the state average of 72.5%. Located in a very walkable area (Walk Score 70), the facility sits 5.1 miles south of downtown. Monthly housing costs begin at $895 for one-bedroom and $995 for two-bedroom units. The community offers memory care and accepts pets. Residents enjoy swimming, fitness facilities, BBQ and picnic areas, on-site laundry, and high-speed internet access. Operating hours are Monday-Friday, 8:30 AM-5:30 PM.
Regulatory compliance history reveals substantial deficiency patterns. Between May 2023 and September 2025, eight inspections documented 42 citations; 122% worse than Washington’s state average of 6.3 per year. Fire safety dominance marked the record: May 2023 inspections cited 12 violations (missing fire drill documentation across 12 drills, extension cords improperly deployed, missing system maintenance records for sprinklers and fire detection, electrical hazards including exposed wiring, emergency lighting failures, and loose oxygen tanks scattered through resident rooms). One year later, May 2024 fire safety review documented 14 additional violations repeating many themes: missing fire drill documentation (12 planned and unannounced drills), extension cords still in use, missing quarterly sprinkler inspection paperwork, absent carbon monoxide alarm maintenance logs, and missing fire door inspections. Following corrective action, September 2025 State Fire Marshal inspection confirmed zero deficiencies and granted facility approval.
Care planning and documentation gaps affected multiple residents. April 2025 inspections found service plans unupdated for three of 15 sampled residents; medical device safety assessments missing for two residents; TB testing incomplete for one staff member 123 days past hire date; and hand hygiene failures by food service dishwashing staff. January 2023 complaint investigation substantiated resident rights violations and property misappropriation. March 2025 complaint investigation documented improper discharge notice following a resident-to-resident alteration with injury. September 2023 inspection cited incomplete background check for the administrator and TB screening non-compliance for one caregiver. First aid kit accessibility and laundry room ventilation failures rounded out deficiency categories.
Park Place fits urban-based seniors and families seeking assisted living and memory care in a walkable Seattle neighborhood with activity-focused amenities.
Renton Assisted Living is an independent and assisted living community operated by the Solstice at Renton brand in Renton, Washington. With 115 licensed beds in King County, the community provides wheelchair-accessible spaces, as well as 24-hour staffing, rehabilitation services, and respite care. 74 beds are currently occupied, with an occupancy of around 64%, indicating that units are available for interested families.
The most recent inspection on November 6, 2025, identified fire and life safety concerns, including missing documentation for sprinkler and fire alarm testing, blocked emergency exits, and maintenance issues with fire extinguishers. A prior pattern of medication management deficiencies is also cited. This led to a stop placement order on new admissions from July through October 2025, which was lifted after corrective actions were verified.
Earlier complaint investigations substantiated issues such as medication delivery failures, lapses in resident care, improper discharge procedures, and smoking violations, some of which resulted in civil fines and licensing conditions. While recent reports show improved medication management and compliance, fire safety documentation remains an area to monitor. With this inspection history, families are encouraged to review the latest inspection records and discuss directly with management about current protocols and corrective measures.
The community offers a range of amenities, including restaurant-style dining, a fitness center, a library, and outdoor common areas. A full schedule of activities and wellness programs, as well as personal care support, is available to accommodate varying levels of independence.
Renton Assisted Living may be a good fit for older adults in the Renton area who require light to moderate support and are looking for a community with thoughtfully curated amenities and active programming at a relatively competitive price. However, interested families should weigh its recent improvements alongside its regulatory history and ask detailed questions about medication management, staffing, and fire safety practices before deciding on placement.
Aegis Living Ballard is a senior living community in Seattle, Washington, that provides a comprehensive continuum of care within a single urban campus, encompassing assisted living, memory care, transitional care, respite, and hospice services.

Operated under the well-regarded Aegis Living brand, the community benefits from the expertise of a major regional provider with a deep footprint across the Pacific Northwest, allowing it to deliver more structured care to older adults in King County.
The community demonstrated a high standard of care during its most recent state inspection in April 2025, which resulted in zero deficiencies. While two significant deficiencies were cited in past complaint investigations, specifically a delay in reporting a resident altercation to law enforcement and a medication management gap, both matters were substantiated, corrected, and closed without any fines or license actions. With only two deficiencies compared to the Washington state average of 31 per inspection cycle, this regulatory record reflects the community’s commitment to compliance and improving its operations.
A wide array of amenities tailored to residents’ health and comfort is offered, including a spa, a hair salon, red light therapy, and on-site therapy services. An AI-assisted anti-fall system and building-wide emergency pendant and motion sensor technology are also provided for safety. The lifestyle is defined by flexibility, highlighting an all-day dining model from 7 AM to 7 PM and a robust calendar of over 200 monthly activities ranging from music therapy to Nordic baking demonstrations. This pet-friendly community also includes housekeeping, linens, utilities, and 24-hour staffing in the monthly rate. Families can also stay connected via the Aegis Live technology platform.

Frequently Asked Questions about Assisted Living in Washington
What's the difference between assisted living and memory care in Washington?
Assisted living in Washington supports residents with daily activities (bathing, dressing, medication management) while preserving independence. Memory care is a specialized form of assisted living for residents living with Alzheimer's or dementia, and adds 24/7 secured environments, dementia-trained staff, and structured routines designed to reduce confusion and wandering.
What's the difference between assisted living and a nursing home in Washington?
Assisted living in Washington is a residential model focused on housing, hospitality, and help with daily activities. Nursing homes (skilled nursing facilities) provide 24/7 medical care from licensed nurses for residents with significant health needs, and are regulated more strictly under both state and federal CMS rules.
Does Washington Medicaid cover assisted living?
Washington Medicaid does not directly pay room-and-board for assisted living, but most states (including Washington) offer Home and Community-Based Services (HCBS) waivers that can offset the cost of care services delivered inside a licensed community. Eligibility, waitlists, and covered services vary — check directly with the state Medicaid agency.
What is assisted living?
Assisted living combines private or semi-private apartments with help on activities of daily living (meals, bathing, dressing, medication management) and a social calendar — for residents who need some support but do not need 24/7 medical care.
How many assisted living facilities are listed on this page?
This page features 464 assisted living facilities in Washington. Use the filters and comparison tools above to compare ratings, amenities, and pricing.
How do I choose the right assisted living facility in Washington?
Start by matching the level of care offered to the resident's current and anticipated needs, then compare licensing status, staff-to-resident ratios, recent inspection results, and pricing. Tour at least two or three communities in Washington, talk to current residents and families, and confirm what is included in the base rate versus billed as add-on services.
What should I look for when visiting assisted living facilities in Washington?
Pay attention to staff interactions with residents, cleanliness and odor, food quality at meal times, the activity calendar, and how questions about pricing and care plans are answered. Ask to see the most recent state inspection report, the move-out / level-of-care-change policy, and a sample monthly bill that lists every fee.
