St. Joseph Manor Health & Rehabilitation sits at 1317 North 36th Street in Saint Joseph, Missouri, and is one of those places that's focused on health care and rehabilitation, offering a wide range of services for older folks who need different levels of care, including skilled nursing, memory care, short-term rehabilitation, and long-term care, and you'll find 110 certified beds in the building, usually with about 61 residents staying on an average day, and it's managed by Beverly Miller and affiliated with Reach Ltc. The staff helps residents with daily activities like bathing, eating, and dressing, and there's always someone on hand for nursing and support, 24 hours a day, with 3.90 nurse hours available per resident each day, though there's a nurse turnover rate of 50.0% noted. Folks staying here get care in private rooms that come with beds, nightstands, overbed tables, windows, and TVs, and you'll notice the reception area looks cheerful and open, while the main entrance shows some nice landscaping, benches, a covered walkway, and an American flag.
Skilled nurses, an award-winning Wound Care team, and different therapy professionals work together for treatment and rehabilitation programs that help people regain strength and independence, and the care's adjusted based on what each resident actually needs, whether that's short stays after hospital visits, long-term nursing, or adult day care, and some residents need more help with things like memory care or subacute rehabilitation, so there are specialized units set up for that. There are regular activities like bingo, crafts, church services, and chances to get out for community events, and they've even got Miss Ruby, a therapy dog, helping with the emotional side of care, and people who want quiet time can take part in services for meditation or worship. The staff aims to show respect and consider everyone as they go about their work, and you'll spot transportation services for medical appointments, lounges for relaxing, and safety features like emergency call systems throughout the building.
They do keep track of residents' health and provide medication management, as well as therapy options like physical, occupational, and speech therapy, but according to recent inspection reports-including a standard inspection on March 21, 2025-there have been 57 total deficiencies across several reports, with points that need attention in areas like proper infection control, accurate resident assessment and care planning, and dietary staffing, including five infection-related deficiencies, so folks who like to know about these things may want to look up reports for the latest information. The place tries to keep a safe and welcoming environment, with services for both medical and nonmedical daily needs, and offers support for those who are very frail or dependent on care, and its staff works to help residents meet goals for health, confidence, and feeling part of the community.
