The Desimone Levee on the Green River failed and is under repair. The hospital is above the flood zone and currently in no danger of flooding. We evacuated our Time Square and Kent Station Clinics and our Lind Avenue locations. Several locations are experiencing staffing issues due to severe traffic impacts. Impacted patients are being contacted to reschedule appointments. Please be safe, do not drive or walk through standing water, and call 9-1-1 if you need emergency evacuation assistance.

New POLST Toolkit
Check out the New WSMA POLST Toolkit!
The POLST document can be a very nuanced and confusing document. WSMA in collaboration with Honoring Choices PNW has put together a toolkit found here. In this toolkit you will find information like a POLST Completion Guide for Clinicians and FAQs. We encourage you to review the Toolkit for your own edification and to help understand the appropriate use of the POLST document and to learn more about completing POLST with patients.
