The new, state-of-the-art rehabilitation and care center at Wesley Homes Lea Hill in Auburn has received its Skilled Nursing Home Licensure to operate in Washington State from the Department of Social & Health Services. It is now welcoming private pay clients for long-term care.
“After three years of fundraising and 14 months of construction,” said Wesley Homes Lea Hill Executive Director Scott Hulet, “we are pleased to offer to the South King County community a beautiful, boutique-style skilled nursing center. It is designed to honor residents with dignity and privacy at what is a very vulnerable time in their lives.”
Comprised of 34 private suites and one semi-private suite with kitchenettes and en suite bathrooms, the rehab and care center provides services from a customized interdisciplinary team of professionals from nursing, culinary, life enrichment, chaplain services and social services. Comfort and hospitality are key components of the care plans for all guests.
“We are small, just 36 beds, but that allows us to really concentrate on each individual. Our entire environment is designed for the care and healing of our guests and long-term residents. In addition to serving the greater community, the center completes our continuum of care and allows Wesley Homes Lea Hill residents to receive services just steps away from their home,” said Hulet.

“We want to thank Wesley Homes Lea Hill residents for their contributions and the community and City of Auburn for their support of this project,” said Wesley Homes President and CEO Kevin Anderson. “I also thank Scott and his team for their hard work in preparing to receive licensure. It’s a very involved process, and they’ve done an excellent job. We all look forward to serving the community.”
The Wesley Homes Lea Hill Rehabilitation & Care Center is the only not-for-profit center of its kind in greater South King County that offers private rooms. In order to provide rehab therapies, Wesley Homes has submitted applications and expect to complete the Medicare and Medicaid certification process in the next four to six months. In the meantime Wesley Homes Lea Hill will be looking to fill new positions in nursing. Apply now on our careers page.

Well Done! Let’s hope for full occupancy as soon as practical.
Congratulations! What a marvelous facility to add to Lea Hill.
We toured Lea Hill last Jan. We were so impressed. Liked it so much. Signed up the following day for Bradley Park in Puyallup.
We can hardly wait until construction begins and we can move into the residence inn.
Thank you to Wesley Homes, administrators, staff for providing full care for your residents.
We are very glad to hear that, Barbara, and welcome to the Wesley Homes community! We are very excited about Bradley Park and continuing to offer our full continuum of care.
