Overview of The Evangelical Lutheran Good Samaritan Society

The Evangelical Lutheran Good Samaritan Society is a 45-bed nonprofit nursing facility in Oberlin, Decatur County, Kansas, offering rehabilitation therapy, memory care, and respite care, as well as programs in caregiver support and home-based services. It is operated by Craig Bartruff under the Good Samaritan Society organization.

CMS rates the facility 2 stars overall — 27.8% below the Kansas average — primarily due to Health Inspection and Quality Measures sub-ratings that fall below state benchmarks. Staffing is the exception: nurse staffing averages 4 hours and 42 minutes per resident per day, ranking 60th out of 141 Kansas skilled nursing facilities and roughly 10% above the state average. Inspection history over the reporting window shows 18.1 deficiencies per year, more than three times the Kansas average of 6.

The inspection record includes two substantiated complaints involving resident abuse — one staff-to-resident incident in February 2024, in which the CNA was suspended and subsequently left — and one substantiated fall-prevention failure are part of the record. The most recent annual inspection in November 2025 cited 7 deficiencies; a December 2025 revisit confirmed full correction with no new findings.

Occupancy stands at 40% — well below the Kansas average of 79.5% — indicating current availability.

The Good Samaritan Society in Oberlin serves residents who require long-term skilled nursing care in rural northwest Kansas, particularly those eligible for Medicare, Medicaid, or the Kansas Frail Elderly Waiver. However, families should carefully review the facility’s inspection history and abuse-related findings before making a placement decision.

Frequently Asked Questions about Assisted Living in Kansas

What's the difference between assisted living and memory care in Kansas?

Assisted living in Kansas supports residents with daily activities (bathing, dressing, medication management) while preserving independence. Memory care is a specialized form of assisted living for residents living with Alzheimer's or dementia, and adds 24/7 secured environments, dementia-trained staff, and structured routines designed to reduce confusion and wandering.

What's the difference between assisted living and a nursing home in Kansas?

Assisted living in Kansas is a residential model focused on housing, hospitality, and help with daily activities. Nursing homes (skilled nursing facilities) provide 24/7 medical care from licensed nurses for residents with significant health needs, and are regulated more strictly under both state and federal CMS rules.

Does Kansas Medicaid cover assisted living?

Kansas Medicaid does not directly pay room-and-board for assisted living, but most states (including Kansas) offer Home and Community-Based Services (HCBS) waivers that can offset the cost of care services delivered inside a licensed community. Eligibility, waitlists, and covered services vary — check directly with the state Medicaid agency.

What is assisted living?

Assisted living combines private or semi-private apartments with help on activities of daily living (meals, bathing, dressing, medication management) and a social calendar — for residents who need some support but do not need 24/7 medical care.

How many assisted living facilities are listed on this page?

This page features 20 assisted living facilities in Kansas. Use the filters and comparison tools above to compare ratings, amenities, and pricing.

How do I choose the right assisted living facility in Kansas?

Start by matching the level of care offered to the resident's current and anticipated needs, then compare licensing status, staff-to-resident ratios, recent inspection results, and pricing. Tour at least two or three communities in Kansas, talk to current residents and families, and confirm what is included in the base rate versus billed as add-on services.

What should I look for when visiting assisted living facilities in Kansas?

Pay attention to staff interactions with residents, cleanliness and odor, food quality at meal times, the activity calendar, and how questions about pricing and care plans are answered. Ask to see the most recent state inspection report, the move-out / level-of-care-change policy, and a sample monthly bill that lists every fee.
