Overview of Brookdale Nine Mile

Brookdale Nine Mile, a 60-bed memory care community at 5329 W Rifle Club Ct in Spokane, is operated by Brookdale Senior Living and provides specialized dementia and Alzheimer’s care. The facility maintains 24-hour staffing with licensed nurses and nursing assistants, accepts Medicaid, and maintains secured living with entrances and exits, an enclosed courtyard, and personalized memory care programming. Occupancy runs at 73%, matching the Washington state average. The facility has served Spokane County for 27 years and holds a Better Business Bureau rating of A+.

Location presents transportation considerations. The Walk Score is 17, ranking 547th of 628 Washington memory care communities; cars are necessary for most activities. The Mann-Grandstaff VA Medical Center is 1.42 miles away.

Between 2022 and 2025, the facility underwent 16 state inspections, which is substantially more than the Washington average of 9. Those inspections resulted in 46 deficiencies, 48% above the state average.

The dominant finding across multiple inspections and substantiated complaints involved medication failures: the facility repeatedly failed to provide prescribed medications, administered contraindicated drugs, and failed to monitor residents for resulting health complications.

A severe injury from physical assault requiring hospitalization was documented as substantiated.

Financial exploitation where resident money was missing, was also substantiated with failure-to-investigate citations.

Administrative failures included delayed incident reporting to authorities and incomplete staff background checks and training.

The facility paid $6,800 in civil fines (August 2023: $4,600; November 2022: $700; May 2024: $1,500; March 2025: $1,000) for medication administration, resident safety, and service agreement violations. However, a follow-up inspection in May 2025 verified that all prior deficiencies: medication services, resident monitoring, staff training, TB testing, background checks had been corrected, indicating recent operational improvement.

The facility serves memory care residents in a secured setting, though a substantial compliance history preceded recent corrections.

Overview of Sagebrook Senior Living at Bellevue

Eight years running, and Sagebrook Senior Living at Bellevue sits in one of the most walkable parts of the city. A Walk Score of 85 means most errands, a coffee run, a pharmacy stop, don’t require a car at all. The community itself covers both independent living and assisted living, located in Bellevue’s Crossroads neighborhood at 15750 NE 15th St.

Daily health checks and medication management run in the background here, available whether a resident is staying short-term or settling in for the long haul. That’s a detail that separates this from a purely independent setup: support is there without residents needing to ask for it first. Scheduled local transportation is available on request, and each resident gets a personalized activities calendar filled with classes and outings.

Frontier Management oversees the community, and Pauline Smith serves as executive director.

With independent and assisted living combined, daily health monitoring built into the routine, and a location where walking covers most errands, Sagebrook works for residents who want independence without giving up easy access to support when they need it.
