Puyallup Nursing and Rehabilitation Center sits right in a Continuing Care Retirement Community with 96 certified beds, but in June 2025, only 23 beds out of the 96 are certified, and on average about 72 people stay there each day, which keeps the place busy but not crowded, and the staff gives about 4.66 hours of nursing care to each person daily, a bit above the state average, which means folks get more attention than usual, and nurse turnover is at 40.9%, so caregivers stick around a little longer compared to other places in Washington state. Regency Pacific Management oversees the daily operations, while Nightingale Healthcare owns the facility, and the place carries several inspection deficiencies-forty-seven in all, with four related to infections and some about accident hazards and resident rights, like not giving timely notice about transfers or discharges, showing it's not perfect but tries to improve. The center offers a wide range of medical and rehab services, provides both skilled nursing and memory care, and has special care for wounds, with a full therapy team covering physical, speech, and occupational needs, plus palliative care that tries to uphold dignity and respect. It's open 24 hours a day and has nurses on shift for 12 to 16 hours at a time, along with a 24-hour on-call system for help whenever needed.
Amenities in the building include outdoor areas like paths and gardens, a spa room, fitness programs, a library, game rooms, activity and arts spaces, and even a movie theater, which give residents chances to get out and do things with others, and rooms come with private bathrooms, air conditioning, cable TV, Wi-Fi, telephones, and kitchenettes, making them comfortable. Dining uses fresh, local ingredients and professional chefs prepare meals restaurant-style, with changes for dietary needs, and the staff helps with transfers, bathing, dressing, medication, and housekeeping, while transportation and parking are available for outings and appointments. The community allows Medicaid and Medicare coverage, so it's open to a range of financial situations, and residents can book appointments by phone. It holds daily activities, movie nights, music, arts, and events run by both staff and residents, encouraging social life and making sure folks aren't alone if they want company, while family and resident councils help improve everyday life.
People with more serious medical needs, or who just got out of the hospital or surgery, are taken care of here, and the staff handles convalescent and sub-acute cases for recovery, along with infection control measures that track things like blood clots, wounds, and other problems. The place is licensed by the state and certified for Medicare and Medicaid, so the care meets certain standards, and cleanliness, quietness, and staff responsiveness are checked in patient experience ratings. The focus leans on both skill and compassion, aiming to meet the specific needs of everyone, no matter their challenges or preferences. It's a for-profit, community-oriented place that offers skilled nursing and rehab, personal help with daily life, and support during changes in health, with care given by a mix of professional nurses, therapy staff, and support workers who work together to make sure recovery, comfort, and well-being stay a priority.
