Monroe City Manor Care Center

1010 Highway 24 & 36 East, Monroe City, MO 63456-1116
Overview of Monroe City Manor Care Center

Nursing time at Monroe City Manor Care Center reaches 5 hours and 4 minutes per resident per day, spread across 60 beds. Therapy services appear on the program list beside rehabilitation. The person answering a call bell at midnight in Monroe City holds a nursing license. That is what around-the-clock skilled nursing buys.

Hospice care shifts the family’s job. Arranging appointments and pushing for treatment makes way to being in the room, which is harder than it sounds and demanding in an entirely different way.

Selective menus give residents choices at each meal. Beauty shop services, assisted transportation, and community outing opportunities are named programs here, so a ride is not something a relative organizes every time. Brittany Vanlandingham serves as administrator.

Medicaid, Medicare, and private pay all may apply. The main question with Medicare is rarely whether it covers a stay but for how long. It pays for skilled care after a hospital admission rather than for an ongoing residence. Medicaid answers the years after that, and personal funds fill in for the rest.
