Inspection Report Summary for GenCare Lifestyle Seattle at Ballard Landmark
The most recent inspection on April 23, 2025, found no deficiencies and confirmed the facility met licensing requirements after correcting earlier issues with resident assessments, pet immunizations, and tuberculosis testing. Prior inspections showed recurring fire safety deficiencies, including blocked exits, missing maintenance documentation, and equipment issues, which led to disapproval by the State Fire Marshal in November 2024 and earlier. Earlier complaint investigations identified deficiencies in resident assessments, emergency preparedness, privacy, staff training, and a substantiated medication error resulting in citations and resident harm. Most complaints were substantiated, though follow-up inspections often found corrections had been made. The inspection history shows improvement in assisted living regulatory compliance, while fire safety issues have persisted with repeated citations over time.
