    Kind attentive staff, home-like facility

    I'm very pleased with my short stay - staff are kind, professional and compassionate, care is attentive, communication is proactive and responsive by phone/text/email, and they even coordinated doctor appointments. The private room, park-like grounds with a gazebo and activities, neat facility and reasonable pricing make this a very good, home-like option I can recommend.

    Summary of reviews

    Reviews present a mixed but detailed picture of Village Manor. On the positive side, families frequently describe prompt, proactive communication from clinical staff, including regular phone, text, and email updates and assistance coordinating physician appointments. Admissions can be rapid, and the facility offers private rooms, a park-like outdoor area with a gazebo and bird feeders, an enclosed foyer and pleasant entry, and an active activities program (bingo and other social events). Many comments highlight compassionate caregiving, helpful night-shift nurses and CNAs, assistance with feeding, reasonable pricing, and a generally home-like atmosphere.

    Care and staffing are described unevenly. Several families praised attentive and engaged staff and specific night-shift strengths, while other accounts point to variability in staff demeanor and responsiveness. Notable operational concerns include delays in attending to personal-assistance tasks at night, inconsistent bedside responsiveness, and difficulties reaching staff by phone. There are also mentions of coordination shortcomings during transfers and admissions, and specific instances have raised questions about medication-administration and informed-consent processes — areas families may want to review closely during tours and intake.

    Dining and daily routine receive mixed feedback. Some residents receive good assistance with meals and are reported to feed well; others experienced delayed meal service and inconsistent timing. The activities program and outdoor amenities are frequently cited as strengths that support resident engagement and quality of life.

    Facility condition and management impressions vary. The exterior and entry spaces are generally described as neat and well maintained, and outdoor visiting resumed after prior infection-control restrictions. However, there are sanitation and pest-control concerns noted in some areas, along with perceptions that financial considerations can sometimes be prioritized over care quality. Communication breakdowns around transfers, phone responsiveness, and resident-identification/access processes are recurring operational themes.

    For prospective residents and families: Village Manor offers several tangible strengths — outdoor space, private rooms, an active activities calendar, and many staff who are described as compassionate and communicative. At the same time, the facility shows patterns of inconsistent responsiveness, logistical gaps around transfers and identification, and some clinical-process concerns (medication consent and nighttime assistance) that warrant direct questions. During a visit, ask about current pest-control measures, how medication consent is documented, night-shift staffing and response times, phone/family-communication protocols, and the process for transfers and identity verification to ensure those operational areas meet your expectations.

    About Village Manor

    Village Manor, located close to Memorial Hospital, sits with a 75-bed capacity and usually cares for about 65 residents a day, so you won't find things too crowded, and the place offers a nice range of nursing, rehab, and therapy services, memory care for people with Alzheimer's or dementia, and daily living assistance, which is helpful for folks with various care needs, plus there's palliative and hospice care for extra support during tough times. Skilled nurses are around, and the nurse turnover here sits at 45.8%, which is lower than what most places in Kansas are seeing, and staff deliver about 4.09 nurse hours per resident per day-just above the state's average, so folks get steady attention, but Village Manor's collected 19 deficiencies as of June 2025, including issues like not always reporting suspicions of abuse or theft quickly, not allowing residents to voice concerns without worry, and a missed requirement to update staffing records accurately with CMS, which is worth knowing.

    Village Manor is run by the local government hospital district with guidance from folks like Elgin Glanzer, Reginald Courtois, and Salina Regional Health Center Inc, and it's tied in with Memorial Hospital LTCU, so hospital services like radiology, cardiac rehab, and outpatient care are close by, plus there's a Skilled Care Program, Pulmonary Rehabilitation, Senior Life Solutions®, and a Wound Center, which gives residents more options when it comes to specialized health needs. People living there can choose private or semi-private rooms and enjoy the Village Center for gatherings, a family dining room, and common areas in neighborhoods that have kitchenettes and living rooms, and for those who like to keep in touch, you'll find computer and email access.

    There are secured courtyards for residents with memory concerns, plus a special care unit with specially trained staff for people with Alzheimer's or similar conditions, and the environment stays clean and comfortable, with person-centered care and nutritious meals that are prepared daily. Activities are planned to help folks stay engaged, and adult day care is also offered if someone just needs part-time support. For people needing rehab after a hospital stay, there are short-term recovery rooms on site, and the in-house therapy covers physical, occupational, and speech needs, with restorative nursing mixed in for extra help.

    Services coordinate with Hospice of Dickinson County for those needing end-of-life care, and you can pay with private funds, Medicaid/KanCare, or long-term care insurance, which opens options for different budgets, plus it's Medicare certified and state licensed so it stays compliant with current rules. There's a Patient and Family Advisory Council (PFAC), a hospital charge estimator, volunteer programs like MHS Volunteer Corps, and even a Caring Hearts Gift Shop for visitors or residents who want a little something extra, and the staff tries to make each day friendly and supportive, though you might want to keep an eye on past deficiencies. Food is always made to be both tasty and healthy, the design feels homey with thoughtful touches, and the staff follows a resident-centered philosophy to help everyone enjoy dignity and respect in their daily lives.
