Overview of Mirabella Seattle

Mirabella Seattle operates a 63-bed nursing home, assisted living, and memory care community at 116 Fairview Avenue North in South Lake Union, a walkable Seattle neighborhood 1.1 miles from downtown. Established in 2008 and licensed as a Boarding Home by Washington, the nonprofit community is owned by Lee Burnside.

The high-rise facility offers one-bedroom and two-bedroom apartments (762 to 1,202 square feet) and provides nursing care, memory care programming, rehabilitation services, and home care. Current occupancy is 46% (29 of 63 beds), notably below Washington’s 72.5% average. The facility accepts Medicare (68% of admissions, 133-day average stay) and private-pay residents and holds a BBB A+ rating.

Mirabella Seattle earns a 4-star overall CMS rating, 15.6% above state average.

Registered nurse hours at 1 hour 40 minutes/resident/day runs 89% above the Washington average, with weekend RN coverage of 1 hour 10 minutes daily (84% above state norm). Total nursing hours reach 4 hours 41 minutes/resident/day, ranking 10th of 89 Washington facilities.

Health inspections yield a 4-star rating (4.2% above state average) with zero critical or serious citations, though 43 deficiencies accumulated over three years exceed the state average by 39%.

Quality measures earn a 4-star rating despite mixed outcomes: zero pressure ulcers (100% better than state), but falls with major injury at 9.8% (274% worse), urinary tract infections at 6.6% (277% worse), and weight loss at 13.3% (128% worse). Short-stay residents show 60.7% successful return to home, 20% better than state average.

Multiple inspections identified incomplete hood cleaning reports, missing sprinkler and fire extinguishing system maintenance documentation, malfunctioning fire doors, electrical hazards, emergency lighting failures, and absent carbon monoxide and smoke alarm testing records. A March 2024 substantiated complaint revealed inadequate behavioral interventions for a resident whose wheelchair incident injured another resident, accompanied by nine deficiencies: medication administration safety gaps, staff training lapses (dementia, mental health), insecure hazardous supplies, and notably, hand hygiene failures during meal preparation placing all 37 residents at risk for foodborne illness. A June 2025 payment denial (12 days) constitutes serious regulatory action.

Zero federal fines have been assessed.

Financial data (2023) shows operating deficit of -$4.7 million and profit margin of -55.1%.

Mirabella Seattle serves short-term Medicare rehabilitation and private-pay residents seeking urban accessibility (Walk Score 99) and intensive nursing presence, though a cause for concern are its fire safety compliance gaps and documented care coordination lapses.

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.
