Heritage Park Health Center By Harborview

Heritage Park Health Center By Harborview holds an overall 3-star rating from CMS, which means it falls in the average range nationally. That overall score is built from three separate ratings, and it's worth understanding each one on its own rather than just looking at the final number. The health inspection rating, also 3 stars, reflects the findings from state inspectors who visit the facility and note any problems they find. An average score here means the facility isn't standing out for violations, but it's not a clean record either. The staffing rating comes in at 2 stars, which is below average, meaning nurses and aides are caring for more residents per shift than you'd typically want to see. That can affect how quickly staff respond to needs and how much one-on-one attention residents receive day to day. The quality measures rating is also 2 stars, which is based on 15 tracked health outcomes for residents, things like fall rates, pressure wounds, and how residents are managing pain. Below average here suggests the facility's clinical outcomes are lagging behind most others. Taken together, the average health inspection score is keeping the overall rating afloat, but the lower staffing and quality numbers are worth a direct conversation with the facility before making a decision.
