Medicalodges Fort Scott is a 45-bed skilled nursing and rehabilitation community located at 915 South Horton in Fort Scott, Kansas. Owned and operated by Medicalodges, Inc.—a 100% employee-owned company—the facility serves Bourbon County and the surrounding region with an active license through June 30, 2026.
As a skilled nursing facility (SNF), the community provides 24-hour clinical nursing and rehabilitation under the federal Medicare and Medicaid framework. The facility currently carries a 1-out-of-5-star overall CMS rating, which reflects health inspection performance much below state averages. However, based on the most recent 2026 focused health filings, the community maintains a citations-per-inspection rate of zero for current infection control surveys. Occupancy stands at approximately 73%, providing a local resource for short-term rehabilitation, long-term care, and respite stays.
The staffing model provides 3 hours and 59 minutes of total nursing care per resident per day, which is largely consistent with the Kansas state average. Registered Nurse (RN) coverage is 45 minutes daily (5% above average), while nurse aides provide 2 hours and 38 minutes of daily care, matching the state benchmark. Weekend total nursing coverage is 3 hours and 16 minutes, and physical therapy hours are 50% higher than the state average at 3 minutes per resident day. The clinical team coordinates specialized services, including wound care, IV therapy, and post-surgical recovery.
Residents live in a setting featuring private or semi-private suites equipped with 24-hour emergency call systems and wheelchair-accessible showers. All-inclusive services cover restaurant-style dining with special dietary preparations, housekeeping, and medical transportation. Social life is supported by an activity center, outdoor common areas, and big-screen TVs for communal gatherings. The campus is pet-friendly and located less than two miles from Mercy Hospital, ensuring rapid access to acute medical support.
Those seeking a smaller, employee-owned facility with RN staffing levels slightly above state benchmarks may find this environment appropriate. Individuals evaluating the home should contact the administrator directly to discuss current bed availability and review the most recent health survey reports firsthand before proceeding with a placement.
Medicalodges Fort Scott is administrated by Eligia Jackie Raio.
In Kansas, the Department for Aging and Disability Services, Survey and Certification Commission performs the unannounced inspections required for facility licensing and federal certification.
