Mennonite Friendship Communities

Mennonite Friendship Communities sits on a 120-acre campus in South Hutchinson, Kansas, where you find several choices for senior living, like independent living, assisted living, skilled nursing, and healthcare, and they've been serving the area for more than 51 years, so there's a long history behind everything they do over at 600 W Blanchard Ave and folks have come to know them just as Mennonite Friendship Communities over time. The community offers open apartments and duplexes for those who want independent living, and there's assisted living with only private rooms if you prefer more support, plus there are skilled rehab and healthcare options for those needing extra care from nurses and other staff. A personal care facility on the grounds gets run by doctors, psychiatrists, and psychoanalysts, and the staff make sure care is upbeat, ongoing, and tailored to each person, and all this work by a locally owned, not-for-profit organization has earned them a top resident satisfaction rating of 100% among nursing facilities in Reno County, though reviews average out to about 3.1 from eight people online, so opinions can differ. The campus itself was updated with a new assisted living addition and remodeled common areas as of January 2014, and they keep things home-like so people can keep their independence and see friends, with the grounds open and accessible for visitors, plus activities and outings like Christmas light trips and other social visits mean there's always something to do together. Amenities meant for comfort line the community, including a store, barber, on-site restaurant, a pool room, coffee spot, carpenter shop, and laundry so residents don't have to travel far for what they need, and the Mennonite Friendship Communities staff put a focus on well-being and quality of life, all rooted in Mennonite values, making sure residents and the wider community both feel looked after and involved.
