Hospice care supports residents receiving end of life care.
The community has 60 beds. Its short stay rehabilitation program and rehabilitation services provide a temporary setting for recovery, while complex medical care supports residents with more involved medical needs. This range of services may suit a resident who needs skilled nursing, memory care, hospice care, or short term rehabilitation.

Quinton Schooley serves as the administrator, and Diversicare Chanute Property operates the community.

6 of 6 metrics below Kansas average
