Elmhaven Skilled Nursing and Rehabilitation Center, owned and run by Woodworth Health Care, sits at 1400 S. 15th Street in Parsons, Kansas, and offers a variety of services for older adults and people with disabilities. The 45-bed nursing facility, also known as Elmhaven East, gives care across different senior living levels, like skilled nursing, assisted living, independent living, memory care, and even home care, respite stays, and hospice care, so families don't have to worry about moving when needs change. The team, made up of nurses, dietary staff, social services, and activity coordinators, works together to make sure each resident gets a personalized plan for care. Many services-like housekeeping, laundry, and one or two prepared meals a day-are included all together or can be added for an extra cost.
Folks living at Elmhaven can choose comfortable apartment or condo-style rooms, with independent living areas designed for seniors, usually those 55 or 62 years and older, who want to stay active and remain social. There's always on-site staff for health care and supervision any time of day or night, so someone's always nearby if an extra hand's needed. Seniors who need help with dressing, bathing, or managing health needs get help through assisted living programs. The facility offers specialized memory care for people living with Alzheimer's or dementia, though these services can cost much more than standard health care for those over 65. Engaging daily activities, exercise programs, and social groups help everyone keep sharp and stay moving. The adult daycare service provides extra support for elderly adults or those with disabilities who aren't staying overnight.
Elmhaven gives long-term nursing care, therapy, and health monitoring, aiming to keep every resident doing as much for themselves as they can, both physically and mentally. The staff is known for being compassionate and keeps the place feeling friendly and supportive. Residents don't have to pay extra for things like incontinent supplies, medical gear, or oxygen, since those are included in the room rate so families know up front what they'll pay each month. Medicaid/Medi-Cal and Medicare are accepted, and the facility is licensed as #N-050-008. There's free transportation for appointments around town, and social workers are always available to help residents and families with questions. Life at Elmhaven is steady, calm, and focused on dignity, safety, and personal choice while encouraging as much independence as possible.
