Legacy At College Hill sits in a quiet neighborhood near Wichita State University and has served the area for nearly 50 years, handling all types of skilled nursing care with a focus on respect, kindness, honesty, and personal growth, and they try to value diversity and serve those who are poor and vulnerable through compassionate care. The building is single-story, which helps people who have trouble with stairs, and the team there works together to give complete care for the mind, body, and spirit, covering a range of needs from short-term rehab after a hospital stay, long-term care for those who need daily support, and flexible respite care so families can take a break. The community accepts both Medicare and Medicaid, alongside private pay, and offers personalized care plans that are made with residents to fit each person's wishes and needs, covering daily help with things like bathing, dressing, transfers, and medication management, plus nursing care that covers 12 to 16 hours each day, and a 24-hour call system is always on for safety.
The place employs an interdisciplinary team with nurses, a dietitian watching over meals and nutrition, therapy services for physical, occupational, and speech needs, and special consultants for pharmacy, wound care, social services, and medical records, and they offer regular activities planned by a certified activity director, including movie nights, social programs, arts, fitness, library, wellness spaces, and an on-site theater, so there's a good amount of choice for residents to stay active and connected. The meals can be taken in a dining room or with restaurant-style service, and they make special dietary options for allergies and diabetes, with the dietitian giving oversight. The living spaces come with private bathrooms, kitchenettes, cable TV, air conditioning, Wi-Fi, and furnished rooms, and there's also laundry, housekeeping, and even dry cleaning offered, plus outdoor gardens, walking paths, and common areas for fresh air and exercise, and they provide transportation including a Ride To Care service for medical visits.
Legacy At College Hill is run by a Limited Liability Company and isn't part of a larger retirement community. It has experienced citations in state inspections regarding elder abuse incidents, so people should check on current reports and oversight when making any decisions. Staff speaks English and keep up with training so care can meet residents' changing needs, and there's ongoing quality assurance to review and improve services. Admission help is offered for new residents, and there's credentialing for healthcare providers along with an updated provider directory. The whole place aims for a safe, warm, and supportive setting, with options for skilled nursing, therapy, and social engagement all in one place.
