Life Care Center of Grandview sits in Grandview, Missouri, and has been managed by Life Care Centers of America since 1993, offering a range of care including independent living, assisted living, skilled nursing, memory care for Alzheimer's or dementia, and both inpatient and outpatient rehabilitation programs. The community has 172 certified beds and provides options like private or semi-private rooms, private bathrooms, wheelchair-accessible vans for transport, and amenities like an ice cream parlor, beauty salon, library, lounge, cable TV, telephones, and wireless internet. There's always 24-hour skilled nursing staff, bedside and bathroom call lights, security systems, and family or resident councils.
Meals are cooked on-site with the help of a certified dietitian, fine dining programs, and up to two prepared meals each day, plus a daily activity schedule, religious services, pet visitor policy, landscaped courtyards, and a non-smoking policy. The center provides pharmacy services, help with bathing and dressing, laundry and housekeeping, and health services such as diabetic, wound, incontinence, non-ambulatory, and high-acuity care. Residents who've had a hospital stay can recover in private suites with rehab services like speech, physical, and occupational therapy, including special equipment like the AlterG® Anti-Gravity Treadmill®. There's a secure memory care environment for those with memory impairment and special community re-entry programs to help residents transition back home.
However, the center has reported 61 total deficiencies in government inspection reports, including three infection-related issues and concerns about abuse, neglect, and exploitation. Nurse turnover sits at 60.3%-higher than the Missouri average-and nurse hours per resident per day are below the state average. The ownership structure includes direct ownership by Life Care Affiliates II and indirect by Forrest Preston. Staff offers patient and family education, respite care, religious support, and flexible visiting hours. The facility is part of the larger Missouri Health Care Association and connected to a network of over 200 facilities under Life Care Centers of America.
