Our Service Areas
Seattle Nurse Delegation provides professional RN delegator services throughout the greater Seattle metropolitan area and Puget Sound region. We serve communities in King County, Snohomish County, and Pierce County, bringing expert nurse delegation to adult family homes, assisted living facilities, and in-home care settings.
Serving the Puget Sound Region
Our service area encompasses the most populous region of Washington State, home to thousands of adult family homes and assisted living facilities. According to the Washington State Department of Social and Health Services (DSHS), this region has a significant concentration of community-based care facilities serving Washington's aging population.
We travel to facilities throughout the greater Seattle area, from Everett in the north to Tacoma in the south, and from the coast to the Cascade foothills. Our RN delegators are familiar with the unique characteristics and care needs of each community we serve, allowing us to provide responsive, locally-informed services.
Whether you operate an adult family home in a suburban neighborhood, an assisted living facility in a commercial area, or provide private in-home care, our team can reach you. We schedule visits efficiently to minimize wait times while ensuring thorough, unhurried assessments and training sessions.
Why Local Service Matters
Working with a local nurse delegation provider offers significant advantages:
- Faster Response Times: We can schedule initial visits and reassessments more quickly than providers who must travel from distant locations
- Regional Expertise: Our RNs understand local healthcare resources, regulations, and care community dynamics
- Emergency Availability: For existing clients, we can respond to urgent needs without excessive travel delays
- Relationship Building: Local presence allows us to build ongoing relationships with facilities, caregivers, and the broader care community
The AARP emphasizes the importance of accessible local care services for supporting aging in place. Our presence throughout the Puget Sound region helps make this possible.

Understanding Our Service Area
Our coverage area is designed to serve the greatest concentration of care facilities while maintaining responsive service levels.
Why These Counties?
King, Snohomish, and Pierce Counties together represent the heart of the Puget Sound metropolitan area. According to data from the U.S. Census Bureau, these three counties are home to over half of Washington State's population, including a significant and growing population of older adults who may need community-based care services.
DSHS data shows that this region has the highest concentration of licensed adult family homes in the state, reflecting the strong preference among Washington families for community-based care alternatives. By focusing our services in this area, we can:
- Maintain quick response times for initial consultations
- Schedule reassessments efficiently
- Provide emergency coverage for existing clients
- Develop deep familiarity with local care communities
Travel and Scheduling
We schedule visits efficiently to minimize both your wait time and our travel time. For facilities within our standard service area, there are no additional travel charges—our pricing includes all travel within King, Snohomish, and Pierce Counties.
Areas Outside Our Coverage
If your facility is located outside our standard service area—such as Kitsap County, Thurston County, or Skagit County—please contact us to discuss your needs. Depending on the circumstances, we may be able to provide services or recommend another qualified provider in your area.
The Growing Need for Nurse Delegation
As Washington's population ages, the demand for community-based care continues to grow. The Washington State Office of Financial Management projects significant growth in the 65+ population over the coming decades, which will increase demand for adult family homes, assisted living facilities, and the nurse delegation services that support them.
We are committed to growing our capacity to meet this need while maintaining the quality and responsiveness our clients expect. By focusing on the Puget Sound region, we can ensure that care facilities throughout this area have access to professional, reliable nurse delegation services.
