Ways to qualify for care at this community, including accepted programs.
This facility is certified for eligible Medicare services.
In Kansas, the Department for Aging and Disability Services, Survey and Certification Commission performs the unannounced inspections required for facility licensing and federal certification.
Inspections are mandatory, regular evaluations conducted by state health departments or regulatory agencies. They ensure the community provides safe, compliant care, covering areas like resident health, staff and management.
Deficiencies indicate regulatory issues. A higher number implies the facility had several areas requiring improvement.
Kansas average: 100 deficiencies
The most recent inspection on April 2, 2025, identified a deficiency related to inadequate supervision and interventions to prevent the elopement of a cognitively impaired resident, which was corrected prior to the surveyor’s entrance. Earlier inspections showed multiple deficiencies primarily involving resident care, medication management, communication with dialysis providers, and sanitation in food preparation areas. Complaint investigations were mostly unsubstantiated except for the elopement incident that led to the April 2025 deficiency. No fines, immediate jeopardy findings beyond the elopement, or license actions were listed in the available reports. The facility had previously corrected all cited deficiencies by May 2024, but recent findings indicate some challenges in maintaining consistent supervision and care interventions.
