Central Todd County Care Center

Central Todd County Care Center sits along Highway 71 in Clarissa and serves folks from nearby towns like Browerville and Hewitt, offering both skilled nursing and assisted living in a setting that feels familiar and comfortable. The center operates as a private, non-profit place focused on caring for senior citizens through various levels of nursing home care including short- and long-term stays, with 24 Assisted Living and Independent Apartments and a 45-bed Skilled Nursing Facility. People can get on-site outpatient therapies such as physical therapy, speech therapy, and occupational therapy, useful for recovery after surgery or injuries or just keeping strong a little longer, and what you'll find here is a group of steady staff, like the Director of Nursing Amanda Rickbeil, RN, the Maintenance Supervisor Chris Benning, and others including Jane Buhl who looks after the dietary needs, Jean May coordinating resident services, and therapists like Sheila Asmus, PT. Folks interested in becoming Certified Nursing Assistants can get financial help and classes here too, especially if they want to join the team and help residents with day-to-day living. With English spoken by clinic staff, sometimes other languages available, and a focus on healthy, independent, and safe living, the Care Center carries its ties in the Todd County community, working as part of the wider network of healthcare and support, and though the place isn't BBB accredited and sometimes can't take new residents right away, you can always call to check upcoming openings. The atmosphere aims to be warm and home-like, helping people feel cared for whether they're staying just a short while or for longer, and the facility manages to provide a range of help without putting on airs or big promises, just giving steady day-in and day-out care for those who need it most.
