Overview of North Point

North Point provides nursing home care, assisted living, memory care, and respite care in Paola, KS. Nursing home care serves residents who need nursing support, while assisted living helps with daily tasks such as bathing, dressing, and medication management. Memory care offers a secured setting with supervision for someone at risk of wandering, and respite care provides a short stay when a usual caregiver needs to travel or recover.

The combination of four care levels may suit a resident whose needs grow over time, since care can continue within the same community. North Point has 53 beds, making it a smaller community where staff and residents get to know each other. Studio housing gives one resident a single private living space.

Total nurse staffing is 4 hours and 10 minutes per resident per day, representing the daily nursing time allocated to each resident. Payment options include Medicare, Medicaid, and private pay. Medicare applies to short term skilled care after a hospital stay, Medicaid can help when savings may not cover a long stay, and private pay means paying directly.

Residents can use the on site salon or barber, gardens, and walking paths for grooming and outdoor time. Transportation for appointments helps residents attend scheduled appointments without arranging their own ride, while chef prepared meals and special diet options support the dining needs documented for the community. Pets are allowed, so a resident may be able to keep a pet while living at North Point.
