Overview of The Village at Broadview

Long-term residential support and skilled nursing care form the core focus at The Village at Broadview, a 60-bed Seattle facility run by the voluntary nonprofit organization Foss Home & Village. Located in the Parkwood neighborhood about nine miles outside the city center, this community features a Walk Score of 80, meaning most day-to-day errands do not require a car. Private-pay individuals account for 76% of new admissions, while Medicaid covers 14% and Medicare represents just 9%, resulting in an average resident stay of 76 days and a 62.1% occupancy rate.

Oversight logs from the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) point to structural and compliance hurdles, noting 10 separate reviews since 2024 that resulted in 85 total citations. This volume runs 74% higher than the Washington state baseline and includes one critical violation alongside 83 moderate infractions tied to care quality, resident rights, pharmacy routines, and infection control.

These issues led to $28,000 in federal fines, though regulators never issued any payment denials. Daily nursing coverage averages 3 hours and 34 minutes per resident, tracking 18% below the state average. On the clinical side, high-risk events, major injuries from falls, and pressure ulcers perform well against state benchmarks, but documented depression symptoms among residents affect 32.8% of the population—doubling the state average of 16.2%.

Prospective residents searching for a nonprofit long-term care setting can look through these public health department archives to balance the facility’s localized walkability against its regulatory metrics. Since the data shows a high citation frequency and elevated depression rates alongside stable physical health markers and a low historical fine total, discussing current clinical programs with the administrative team is a sensible precaution. Scheduling an in-person walkthrough provides an opportunity to evaluate the residential wings, observe the daily care routines, and speak directly with the directors about their quality improvement plans.
