GARDEN VILLAGE

206 SOUTH TENTH AVENUE, YAKIMA, WA 98902

Garden Village struggles to meet basic care standards, evidenced by its 2.0/5 overall rating from CMS and an equally low health inspection score. While the facility reports 0.63 RN hours per resident daily, this figure is worse than the national average, meaning there's less registered nurse coverage than other places.
