Overview of North Point

North Point is a 72-bed skilled nursing community at 908 North Pearl Street in Paola, Miami County, Kansas, independently owned and operated by Holly Hess. The facility specializes in skilled nursing, rehabilitation, hospice care, and memory care services across a 103-day average length of stay.

A three-year compliance record shows zero penalties, a baseline signal of regulatory stability. On CMS metrics, the community’s health inspection rating sits 72.9% above the Kansas average. Quality measures also run 29.4% above the state average. Staffing hours, however, present a concern: at 3 hours 44 minutes per resident per day, the facility runs 19% below the Kansas average, placing it 122nd among 141 state facilities. Physical therapist availability breaks this pattern, running 50% above state average.

Long-stay patients show excellent results on hard safety metrics: falls with major injury occur in only 1.4% of residents (68% better than state average), urinary tract infections are absent, and antipsychotic medication use is 78% better than state average. Hospitalization and emergency department visits both run significantly better than state benchmarks

On the other hand: pressure ulcer rates in high-risk populations reach 10.2%, more than twice the state average, and functional decline measures run 14% worse than peers. For short-stay rehabilitation, 59.1% of residents return successfully to home or community; a rate 17% above state average.

The community offers chef-prepared dining, fitness classes, an on-site salon, pet-friendly spaces, and structured activities.

Current occupancy of 54.9% sits well below the state average, indicating available capacity. The mix of Medicare (46% of admissions), private pay (46%), and Medicaid (8%) reflects a rehabilitation and post-acute focus.

North Point is structured for short-term Medicare rehabilitation and mixed-acuity skilled nursing, serving residents seeking intensive rehabilitation support with ongoing access to therapy and medical oversight.

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 218 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.
