Frequently Asked Questions about Nursing Homes in King County, WA

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.

Does Washington Medicaid cover nursing home care?

Yes — Washington Medicaid covers nursing home care for residents who meet income, asset, and medical-need eligibility requirements. Most CMS-certified nursing homes accept Medicaid as a primary payer once long-term-care eligibility is established.
