Cornerstone Court is an assisted living and memory care community on North Ruby Road in the Fairwood neighborhood of Spokane. Led by RyLee Mason, the 40-bed home has a strong 95 percent occupancy rate, signaling solid local demand.
The facility specializes in caring for occupants with dementia and Alzheimer’s disease, plus those managing mental health issues and diabetes. All residents benefit from 24/7 licensed staff who provide attentive support with daily activities, including housekeeping, medication management, and meal preparation. Accepted are Medicaid, private pay, and long-term care insurance, offering families numerous ways for coverage. Situated in an average walkable area with a Walk Score of 51, Cornerstone Court sits near the Avalon Care Center at Northpointe, roughly 1.74 miles away for those needing more medical resources. Some errands can be done on foot, with most trips requiring a quick drive.
Strong compliance has been shown by state inspections. The latest inspection in October 2025 found no deficiencies and affirmed that medication-related issues marked in earlier visits had been corrected. Subsequently addressed was a July 2025 fire safety inspection that documented missing documentation for annual system testing.
Cornerstone Retirement Community is legally operated by Methodist Retirement Communities.
In Texas, the Health and Human Services Commission (HHSC) is the primary regulatory body that conducts unannounced inspections and publishes quality reports for all long-term care homes.
