Coffey County Hospital LTCU sits at 128 South Pearson Avenue in Waverly, Kansas, and runs as part of Coffey County Hospital. The facility gives older adults a place to get care when living alone isn't safe or practical, but it's not for those who need full-time skilled nursing care. Residents here can use assisted living services and get help with daily tasks like bathing, dressing, transferring, and managing medicine, which suits folks who need some support but not complete around-the-clock nurse care. Coffey County Hospital LTCU includes options for people who want to live with some independence, assisted living, memory care for dementia or Alzheimer's, skilled nursing, and it's part of a larger Continuing Care Retirement Community, or CCRC, so people can stay as their needs change over time.
The place has a 24-hour call system, supervision, and emergency alert features for safety, and staff stand by to help with meals, daily chores, and activities of daily living. Residents get room amenities like furnished rooms with telephones, cable, WiFi, kitchenettes, housekeeping, laundry, and linen service. Meals include restaurant-style dining, help with special diets, and meal prep, and the dining room lets people eat all day instead of at strict times. For leisure, you'll find arts rooms, a small library, walking paths, gardens, and space for community activities or resident-run events, including movie nights. There are barber and salon services, too, and programs geared to support mental well-being and engagement. Coffey County Hospital LTCU has a memory care area for those with dementia or Alzheimer's, and offers respite care for short-term stays when caregivers need a break. People living here have access to move-in coordination and can take part in a range of community-sponsored activities. The facility operates alongside Coffey County Hospital's main location in Burlington, Kansas and its network of five physician clinics nearby, which helps provide broader medical support and countywide emergency medical services, using updated technology and patient-centered care.
