Overview of Providence Mount St. Vincent

Providence Mount St. Vincent is a 122-bed senior living community in Seattle’s North Admiral neighborhood, offering a full continuum of care that spans independent living, assisted living, and skilled nursing. That range means a resident can move between levels of care on the same campus as their needs change, without relocating to a different facility across town. The community accepts Medicare, Medicaid, and private pay, giving families several ways to structure coverage for either short-term rehabilitation or longer-term residential care.

On the clinical side, the campus includes a transitional care unit and outpatient rehabilitation services, along with a Wellness Clinic for ongoing health support. Rehabilitation and respite care are both available, and the community maintains 24-hour staffing. Total nursing care averages 4 hours and 38 minutes per resident each day, a meaningful level of hands-on support for residents in the skilled nursing setting. The average length of stay is 126 days, suggesting a mix of residents recovering from a hospital stay and those settling into longer-term care.

Inspection records for the community have most often centered on medication administration practices, staff screening and certification requirements, and administrative safety processes such as documentation and chemical storage. These are the kinds of operational details that regulators routinely check across skilled nursing communities, and families touring Providence Mount St. Vincent can ask staff how these areas are currently managed.

Life on campus includes an Intergenerational Learning Center, which brings younger generations into contact with residents, along with a barber and beauty salon, an on-site gift shop, and a thrift shop. Programming covers physical, social, cognitive, and spiritual care, giving residents a range of ways to stay engaged day to day. The neighborhood itself is moderately walkable, with a Walk Score of 60, meaning some errands and outings are accessible on foot while others will call for a short drive. With occupancy at 62 percent, out of 76 of 122 beds filled, the community currently has room to welcome new residents.

Frequently Asked Questions about Nursing Homes in Washington

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 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.

What is nursing home care?

Nursing homes (also called skilled nursing facilities) provide 24/7 medical care from licensed nurses, rehabilitation services, and long-term custodial care for residents with significant health or functional needs.

How many nursing homes are listed on this page?

This page features 77 nursing homes in Washington. Use the filters and comparison tools above to compare ratings, amenities, and pricing.

How do I choose the right nursing home 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 nursing homes 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.
