Last Health inspection on Jul 2024
Situated at 8900 Parallel Parkway in Kansas City’s Victory Hills neighborhood, The Healthcare Resort of Kansas City operates 105 beds under private ownership by Ryan Leiker.
The facility launched in May 2015 as a dual nursing home and assisted living community accepting Medicare, Medicaid, and private-pay residents. Its 3-star overall CMS rating reflects mixed clinical performance. The current census is 66 residents at 62.9% occupancy, below the Kansas state average of 79.5%. The facility’s care model emphasizes short-stay rehabilitation, with an average length of stay of 58 days.
Five surveys since 2021 identified 54 deficiencies; 46% fewer than the typical Kansas nursing home. Yet the July 2024 routine inspection found 13 deficiencies spanning resident safety, medication management, and training compliance.
Notably, the facility received three serious citations, 233% above the Kansas state rate for this severity level. A March 2024 complaint investigation documented failure to prevent surgical amputation when inadequate diabetic foot wound care allowed progressive infection.
CMS imposed a $29,000 penalty in July 2024.
Total nursing coverage averages 5 hours 3 minutes per resident daily, 7% above Kansas state average. Nurse aide hours average 3 hours 18 minutes (22% above state), and on-site physical therapy runs 8 minutes per resident per day—triple the state average. The staff-to-resident ratio of 3.24:1 is 45% better than state norms.
However, payroll represents only 54.5% of revenue, placing the facility near the bottom third statewide on this metric.
The facility achieved 5-star performance on quality measures, 55.8% above Kansas averages. Long-stay residents show strong functional recovery, with 72.2% achieving expected self-care ability at discharge (35% above state average) and 63.8% successfully returning home or community (26% above average). Conversely, 17.6% of residents experienced significant unintended weight loss—246% worse than state average—and pressure ulcer rates in high-risk residents run 30% above state average.
The facility serves primarily short-stay Medicare rehabilitation and private-pay admissions requiring skilled nursing intervention during transitional care episodes.
