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.
This facility has areas of concern that warrant careful consideration. 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.
Renton Health & Rehabilitation receives highly polarized feedback, with many reviewers praising the therapy and nursing staff for their dedication to recovery, while others report significant concerns regarding facility maintenance and communication. Families frequently mention that while the building is older and lacks modern amenities, the staff's kindness often compensates for the physical environment. However, recurring complaints about phone responsiveness, understaffing, and hygiene standards suggest significant inconsistencies in the quality of care provided.

Key Review Excerpts
“The facility is old and dated, not a Hilton nor Marriott but the staff makes up for it. They are always smiling, addresses their patients by name.”
“I've had to call them and ask them to give my mom an actual shower, not a bed bath. My mom is bed bound and that is likely the reason she gets bed baths, because it's easier.”
“Ok this phone system you operate is ridiculous: I'll call it'll play hold music then after 5 to 30 minutes later I'll hear someone pick it up and hang up immediately!”
This facility meets both EveryPlace staffing reference benchmarks. Higher staffing is generally associated with stronger day-to-day care.
Reference benchmarks (0.75 RN and 4.1 total nursing hours per resident/day) are comparison targets, not current federal minimum requirements.

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.
These are the 6 closest facilities in our data within 10 miles. Proximity does not mean they provide the same care type or have stronger quality signals, so compare each profile and verify services directly.
