Riverways Manor

Riverways Manor sits over in Harrisonville and offers a choice of studio rooms for folks needing skilled nursing, nursing care, assisted living, memory care, rehab, and even some home care options for after a hospital stay, so people can pick what suits their needs. It's got 60 certified beds though only 17 are open as of June 2025, and the average daily number of residents tends to hover around 42, making it a manageable size for people who like a smaller community feel. The nursing home wing carries a 3-star rating from the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services, and while it's not perfect-there have been inspection issues with infection control and resident rights-it does have a lower nurse turnover compared to the state average, which means some staff do tend to stick around a bit longer than elsewhere.

There's 24-hour care with CNAs, LPNs, and RNs on staff who give an average of about 3.12 hours of direct nursing time per resident per day, so care is always close at hand when folks need help bathing, dressing, or getting around, plus there's a 24-hour call system and medication management. They offer rehab therapy like physical, occupational, and speech therapy, and the on-site lab, pharmacy, diagnostic X-ray, clinical dietary services, podiatric care, and on-staff physician and physician extenders make it so most needs can be handled without leaving. The place features a full calendar of activities, including a library, art room, outdoor programs, a movie theater, a music room, and game room, plus resident-run groups for folks who like to be part of things, and there's a fitness room, spa, and gardens for those who want to get outside or just relax. Housekeeping, laundry, and transportation are available, and there's a dining room with a flexible schedule, restaurant-style all-day options, and meals to suit allergies or diabetes, cooked up by a professional chef so everyone gets something they can eat.

Riverways Manor develops custom nutrition programs and takes care to offer both short convalescent stays and longer-term care, with extras like WiFi, cable TV, an open common area, and religious services. The setting tries for a home-like feel with plenty of chances for crafts, indoor and outdoor activities, and a focus on dignity and self-determination, though it's worth knowing the state has flagged them on infection control and resident rights in the past. People looking for memory care, home health, respite, hospice care, or post-acute skilled nursing can find those services too, and the community keeps a close eye on residents' health with regular assessments and physician choice. Riverways Manor accepts both Medicare and Medicaid, making it available to a wider group of folks, and offers amenities for comfort, convenience, and personal needs, which is probably why it has the highest rated community score in Harrisonville, even if that number sits at 5.6 out of 10.
