Plain-language summary

During an unannounced inspection on June 25–27, 2025, Washington DSHS found that Cascade Valley Senior Living failed to ensure three staff members had required training: one executive director had not completed dementia specialty training, and two care partners did not have current CPR and First Aid certification, which placed all 52 residents at risk of compromised care and safety. The facility was required to correct this deficiency by June 30, 2025.
