Review of Garden Terrace Healthcare Center Of Federal Way
My mother passed on 2/24/23. She suffered a horrid death. Staff did not provide comfort care - that’s for sure!!
Overall, Washington is a highly desirable state for seniors, reflected in most cities’ high cost of nursing home care. While Federal Way costs over $1,000 more than the state average, the national average of $7,908 is still cheaper than almost every Washington location.

Many seniors and their families use some form of financial assistance to help them pay for nursing care. The main options available are Medicare, Medicaid, and veterans benefits. These programs can be complicated, especially when it comes to benefit terms. Below, we give a brief overview of how these programs may be used towards paying for skilled nursing care.
If these options aren’t available to you, check if your loved one has long-term care insurance or contact your Area Agency on Aging to ask about any local financial assistance programs for seniors.
Other types of care offer significant savings for families. Assisted living communities average nearly half the price of nursing homes at $5,750 per month, and in-home care is $6,673. However, these services focus on personal care, and neither typically includes skilled nursing, making them ideal only for healthier individuals. Home health care averages $7,007 and could be a better option for seniors requiring access to medical treatments and monitoring by licensed nurses.
