These current public-data fields deserve follow-up with the facility and the official Medicare record. They are not a clinical risk score or a substitute for an in-person assessment.
Staff turnover reported at 24%
This facility has areas of concern that warrant careful consideration. Registered Nurse hours are 61% of the EveryPlace reference benchmark; ask how RN coverage is allocated across shifts. We recommend asking the administrator directly: "How are you addressing recent staffing shortfalls?" These are not reasons to panic, but they are reasons to ask tough questions and visit in person.
Olympia Convalescent Hospital is highly regarded by Korean-speaking families for its professional staff and clean, well-maintained environment.

Key Review Excerpts
“The floors are spotless, a.k.a. hospital clean, and I would be confident eating off the floor like it was a tile plate.”
“We regularly get calls from the nurses with reports on her health and well-being. We appreciate this as we live on the East Coast and aren't able to visit often.”
RN hours are below the EveryPlace reference benchmark. RNs handle complex medical needs and medication, so ask about coverage during your visit.

Original nursing home datasets
EveryPlace is a research directory. Facility information is compiled from public sources — Medicare.gov, state licensing portals, Google Places, and publicly available street-level imagery. Some summaries, interpretations, suggested questions, and pricing research are AI-generated or AI-assisted and may contain errors or omit important context. Listings do not constitute endorsement, recommendation, or advertisement, and we do not accept payment for placement. Families should verify all details directly with the facility and the original sources linked above before making any care decisions. See our Research Policy for our editorial standards, correction process, and image-removal policy.
