Tour Prep

Questions to ask before you visit.

A short pre-tour checklist tailored to Hearthside Manor's record and state requirements.

01 /

Hearthside Manor holds a DSHS Specialized Dementia Care contract — can you provide a copy of the written dementia care program that describes how staff are trained to support residents with memory loss, and confirm which staff members have completed that training?

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

02 /

The most recent inspection on November 1, 2025 recorded 3 deficiencies across 2 reports — can you walk us through the corrective action plans the facility submitted to DSHS for those deficiencies, and show documentation that each deficiency has been resolved?

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

03 /

With 36 licensed beds and a dementia care designation, how does Hearthside Manor document that the physical environment meets DSHS requirements for residents who may wander or become disoriented, and can families review those safety policies during a tour?

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

Plain-language summary

During a complaint investigation on September 23, 2025, Washington DSHS found that Hearthside Manor failed to report suspected physical abuse of a resident to the department, in violation of state law; a witness statement documented that on September 15, 2025, staff grabbed a resident by both arms and yanked them upright while the resident was fighting, causing the resident to yell out. The facility's failure to report this incident to authorities denied the state the opportunity to investigate and placed all 32 residents at risk for harm. Additionally, during a routine inspection on October 1–3, 2025, DSHS cited the facility for failing to complete tuberculosis screening for one newly hired staff member within three days of employment, a recurring deficiency previously cited in April 2024.

The assisted living facility failed to report suspected abuse to the department when an incident occurred on 09/15/2025 involving a staff member grabbing and yanking a resident by the arms. The facility's executive director did not notify the state, incorrectly believing that reporting was only required if the facility's internal investigation substantiated abuse.
