Anthony Community Care Center sits in a quiet area near Anthony Lake where folks can go boating, fishing, or just enjoy nature, and the whole place has a calm feeling with landscaped outdoor spaces and homelike rooms that make residents feel comfortable. The center offers all sorts of care, including independent living, assisted living, skilled nursing, memory care for people with cognitive issues, hospice, and adult care home options, so people get the help they need, and the care is always matched to each person's needs. There's short-term rehabilitation for those recovering between a hospital stay and home, plus long-term care options, with high marks in facility inspections and an overall Grade A rating, so families know the care is solid and reliable.
The center accepts Medicaid and works as a non-profit, focusing on community-based care, and a case management team, led by Kelsey Williams, helps coordinate things for each resident. Anthony Community Care Center uses its own unique care programs and gives extra help through senior support services, nutritional counseling, IV infusion, wound care, and rehabilitation like physical, occupational, speech, and even hydrotherapy. Staff, which includes medical, nursing, and therapy teams, keeps steady hours to meet care needs and offers healthcare through specialized outpatient clinics in Cardiology, Oncology, Urology, Surgery, and OB/GYN, along with a connected hospital, health center, and rural clinics in Attica and Conway Springs, so almost all health issues can get attention both on-site and nearby.
Inside the community, residents find plenty to do, with activities ranging from fishing trips, visits to the Harper County Fair, a hot air balloon festival, monthly barbecues, card games, and events like botanic garden outings in Wichita and Halloween carnivals, plus a Busy Life Room for simple joys like baking and ironing. There are church and Bible lessons, music, and plays put on by school kids through local volunteer programs, and for comfort, there's a Relaxation Station with a heated massaging chair, soft music, and twinkle lights shaped like stars to help folks unwind. The Anthony Community Care Center has no Family or Resident Council, but it stays committed to compassion and making sure care always fits the person, not the other way around, and people here get as much support as they need to stay active and comfortable.
