Smith Center Health and Rehab

Smith Center Health and Rehab sits at 117 W 1st St in Smith Center, Kansas, and has room for about 38 residents each day, with a total of 45 certified beds, and the staff cover many levels of care, from independent living and assisted living to memory care, adult day services, long-term skilled nursing, home care, and hospice care, which means folks can find the support they need whether they want a little help or more nursing care around the clock. They take Medicaid and Medicare, and have average nurse hours of 3.83 per resident per day, although nurse turnover has reached 27.5%, and staff are always there, 24/7, helping with things like recovery after a hospital stay, home health, wound care, cardiac and pulmonary rehab, IV therapy, and more advanced care such as CPAP/BiPAP, hemodialysis, trach care, and PEG tubes. The community has private and semi-private rooms, WiFi, outdoor and social spaces, a dining room, a hair salon, a walking track, exercise equipment, and meeting rooms, all aimed at helping residents stay comfortable and active when possible. Smith Center Health and Rehab has above-average ratings for quality, health inspections, and staffing, but it's had some issues too, with pharmacy service deficiencies, infection control problems, and a quality of life and care deficiency that created risk for residents, leading to 3 deficiencies on a 2023 inspection, a fine of $24,850 after a 2025 complaint, and 16 total deficiencies reported. The facility is affiliated with Mission Health Communities and offers mission activities, ministries for adults and kids, and a worship service that aims to empower and inspire the community. The place offers several clinical services for folks with heart, lung, and other medical issues, and even does things like respite, palliative, and comfort care. There's no current public pricing for long-term or skilled nursing, but families can reach out online. Elders can get help from Smith Center Health & Rehab or from SunPorch of Smith County, with medical support also nearby at Smith County Memorial Hospital, so if someone wants to live somewhere with different care options, lots of services, and is open to faith-related activities, this facility covers a wide range, but it does come with a history of citations and some turnover among its nursing staff that people might want to ask about.
