Forsyth Care Center, also known as Forsyth Nursing & Rehab, has served the Forsyth, Missouri community for over 24 years, providing long-term care, memory care, and rehabilitation services to older adults and people with serious medical needs, with staff trained to assist after hospital stays, illness, or surgery, and while the place isn't part of a Continuing Care Retirement Community, it does have a range of options from nursing home beds and assisted living to services like skilled nursing and memory care, and provides private, semi-private, and companion room layouts, some with cable TV, air conditioning, and private bathrooms, and you'll find community dining spaces, a beautician on site, and areas to socialize, relax, and even enjoy activities like movie nights, arts and crafts, spiritual gatherings, or outings in the garden or on walking paths, and the kitchen offers menu choices to meet special diets run by a professional chef.
The property, maintained by a dedicated staff and managed by Administrator Suzye Wuerman, has 120 total units, and as of June 2025, a certified skilled nursing bed capacity of 42, giving people a fair amount of space and options, with most daily needs covered-laundry, housekeeping, meal preparation, bathing, dressing, medication support, and a 24-hour call system, and they'll help with transfers or for folks who can't walk, they've got non-ambulatory care, plus a fitness room, game room, library, and a busy calendar of scheduled activities and community-sponsored events, which gives everyone the chance to stay busy, make friends, or find peace and quiet depending on the mood.
Medical support has a strong presence, including physician supervision, skilled nursing, psychiatry, and therapies such as speech, occupational, and physical therapy, along with podiatry and dental care on the premises, so emergency needs and ongoing medical attention are supported without much hassle, and with partnerships and proximity to local healthcare providers, things stay coordinated, and for family peace of mind, there's family councils, outreach, and education, helping folks feel involved and up-to-date.
This facility accepts Medicare, Medicaid, and VA benefits, and has a 4-star rating from the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services, with a community rating of 5.6 out of 10, which is above others in Forsyth, and the buildings stay in good shape, though it's worth noting the center is a for-profit operation and isn't BBB accredited, but it does have an A+ BBB rating, so people usually find the staff supportive and the surroundings comfortable and safe, prioritizing dignity for the residents.
Forsyth Care Center isn't flashy, but it's steady, with a straightforward approach to care, offering daily essentials and specialized support in a familiar, laid-back setting, and with options for both short-term respite care and long-term stays, most folks can find what they need, whether it's help after a hospital visit or a new place to call home where someone's nearby if help is needed.
