§ 05 · Tour Prep

Questions to ask before you visit.

A short pre-tour checklist tailored to The Cottages at Edgewood's record and state requirements.

01 /

The facility holds a Washington DSHS Specialized Dementia Care contract — can you provide a copy of the written dementia care program that DSHS reviewed when awarding that contract, and explain how it differs from standard assisted living care?

Ask the operator on tour. Take notes and compare answers across facilities you visit.

02 /

Two complaints were filed with DSHS Residential Care Services and appear in the licensing record — were either of those complaints substantiated, and what corrective actions did the facility document in response?

Ask the operator on tour. Take notes and compare answers across facilities you visit.

03 /

Two deficiencies were cited across the two inspection reports on file — can you walk us through the specific deficiencies, show us the written corrective action plans submitted to DSHS, and confirm whether the state has closed both findings?

Ask the operator on tour. Take notes and compare answers across facilities you visit.

Complaint Investigation
1 · Investigations

Plain-language summary

I don't have enough information in the source text to write an accurate summary. The narrative section is blank, and the outcome section shows only template options without indicating which one was selected or what the actual findings were. To provide families with a clear summary of what was investigated and what was found, I would need the substantive details of the complaint investigation.
