Nursing Home Communities in Cassville, MO

"Placing my husband in nursing care was urgent as I suffered an accident and could no longer provide full care for this Alzeimers patient, nor research facilities. There were two options available: Concordia, a rather unattractive older facility and a much newer one with more modern decor and amenities. To all outward appearances, the more modern facility took precedence. We would prefer bright attractive surroundings over older less attractive for our loved one of course. However when the staff showed us arround Concordia, the personal interactions and reactions were warm and genuine between residents and staff. One resident said he had been in several facilities and this was by far the best. We observed that staff knew and spoke gently to or joked with each resident they passed and the residents responded in kind. So the decision was made on our observations of the personal interaction of staff with residents rather than new equipment and decor. We were never sorry and began to enjoy that same care and concern and personal interaction with our patient and our family. Concordia is in the process of upgrading the facility and grounds and making it much more attractive, However, every family should choose personal concern and care for the patient over lovely facilities.

"I went to Ozarks Methodist Manor yesterday. The social worker was able to set up a tour for us. They were amazing. Everybody was super nice. They had the facilities, and the room was perfect. Everything was just really great there. They have all the steps of care there. They have assisted living, independent living, and the other one when you're not able to care for yourself, and stuff like that. They showed us the dining room, too. They have Walmart trips every week. They have a laundry area. They also provide a service where you pay an extra fee per month, and they can do the laundry for you, which is convenient for my friend because he doesn't do his laundry. They provide housekeeping and meals, too. The other place we looked at was $3000, and this place was $3500, so they're only $500 more, but you're getting way more amenities. Everybody seems nice. They have activities all the time. The guys get together every morning, and the women get together, too. It was just really, really nice. I think they have a great thing going. This year is their hundredth year that they've been in business. Everything seems pretty clean. We did not try the food, but the staff said we were more than welcome to come for lunch or something today if we wanted to."

"It is a fantastic facility to come to. It’s clean, everyone one is so kind and considerate. The food is wonderful!! I recommend anyone who needs skilled therapy to come here. I am taking my husband home this week after wonderful therapy services."

"Mom was in Highland Healthcare & Rehabilitation Center. My sister and I were very pleased with their facility and their care. It was very nice and very clean. I saw them every weekend cleaning an area rug that was right in the center of a very busy area. It was just a very nice place and everyone was very friendly. I would recommend it. The staff that I saw was very attentive. The social worker was very nice and met with us every couple of weeks to go over Mom's health care plan and rehab. They kept, as far as I could tell, detailed notes on her rehabilitation and the course of action they were taking. I had no complaints about the staff. I thought the food was good. They were nutritious and balanced."

"We had to move my husband to Innisfree Health & Rehab, and he seems to be pretty stable right now. The staff is very nice and I can tell they are knowledgeable about what they need to do. Although sometimes, it takes them a lot longer to have somebody help you with things you need help with. The double room he has is probably larger compared to the ones I saw in other places. They had redone part of the building and they're in the process of finishing that up. And they said the rooms are even larger, which would be good. I tried the food and I was satisfied. For now, my husband is eating in his room because of these changes. So hopefully when they get over to the other side, they'll have room for them to go out to eat. They give out a newsletter each day to let you know what they have for lunch, and then there's an alternative. You get to choose your meal that way. Most of the time, the food is good and has a decent variety."

"The tour experience I had with Missouri Veterans Home - Mt. Vernon was perfect. You couldn't beat it. It had no odor. Nothing like that. So, it's a perfectly clean place. I saw their dining area and it was very nice and very neat. I have a friend whose husband's father is there and she went and ate lunch and stuff with him and she said the food was perfect. She said it'd be something you would order in a restaurant. That nursing home was just phenomenal. The staff was very good and very informative."

"My uncle is in Mt. Vernon Place Care Center. It's an excellent place. The people there are extremely nice and caring. They're very concerned about COVID. You have to wear one of their masks. They keep you up-to-date on what's going on by calling you, if you're on the list. The place is clean. I was very impressed. The food (most of the time) is very good. My uncle wears dentures, so he has a little harder time eating sometimes. He's been happy. We take him snacks and everything. They're very tough on COVID, and they require you to wear a mask. Once we found them, they got him in within three days. They have beds, and they take Medicaid. There wasn't anything like paying cash upfront. Whomever was helping us when we got him in, she was at home. We did a conference call from there on the phone to get him in. Their staff is extremely nice and very helpful. It's almost as if they go out of their way. The only thing he complained about was powdered eggs once in a while for breakfast, but all the nursing facilities will use powdered eggs. He wears dentures. If he complains that he couldn't chew something, they will go get him something else. They don't let him go hungry. He's on Medicaid, so I couldn't tell how much they charge. I know they've got private pay, Medicaid, Medicare, and private insurance. They've got hospice, respite, and adult care. If you're home and you're taking care of a loved one, you can drop them off there, go do what you need to do, and come back and get them. They've got lots of good things there."

"My sister-in-law is happy down at the Lawrence County Manor. She has to have help with some things. It's OK, but they've been in quarantine since she got put there. I haven't seen her per se, except through the window. The staff is very caring, and they seem to be doing a great job. It's back on a dead-end road, and back a little bit off of the main drag. I don't really know that much about it, but it seems nice out there. The price is about the same as any of the others that I've seen."

"I have tremendous hope for my family member that just got moved here, my aunt lives here in the past and loved it! They have excellent staff, and cook hefty meals that is one of the reasons we loved it before! I foresee a great road to recovery for him here! "

"New management is doing a great job! My mother went for skilled rehabilitation and had wonderful care. Attentive staff, very knowledgeable nurses and the new management is professional and helpful. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend."

"My husband was at Bradford House. All the time that I was there, they were the nicest people and cared a lot. I had no complaints. They were just marvelous all the way around. They had been so helpful and so caring. They were wonderful to me and my husband. I was well pleased. They were very kind and very good. The dining area was very nice. They had a separate area for families if they wanted to get together. The facility was very clean and well-kept. My husband was certainly taken care of while he was there. The upkeep of his room was nice. They had his bed and his chair fit in there beautifully. He had another person in there with him, which is fine because he likes to talk, so that's good."

"My husband moved to Promenade Health and Rehab. The place was cheerful, friendly, and clean, and overall seemed to be bright. They have more of a related relationship with the patient. They try to get to know them. They try to build a rapport with them so that they feel comfortable about being there. They try to respect them, and I can see that. Some of the staff hug the patients. They laugh with them and make them feel more comfortable about being away from home. They do have regular activities, whether it's holidays or there's always games or movies or even church services on Sunday if needed. So there's enough for people to do if they're interested in doing it. The food is good. The only thing that I would say is sometimes it just takes them a little bit longer to get the meals out. They don't come out at the same time every day, but they get a wide variety. They have seafood, they have shrimp. They have just anything you could think of. They always have a frozen yogurt ice cream thing that's always available for the patient if they want. That part I think was better than some of the other places. The value for money, they're about the same price as everybody else. I think the whole industry's high."

"My mother was at Medicalodges Neosho. They got a lot of people and a lot of workers doing all kinds of different things. There is a lot to manage there when they have 90 residents in all different levels of what their care. Hats off to them because they can get it all done! My mother was there for two months in rehab. The first five days she was in a room with another lady, and they remained friends the rest of the time she was there. After the first five days, they moved her to a large single room. It is a private room, and it has a very nice lazy boy chair that I slept in for two months. They allowed me to come and go and be there with her. They had good food. They also gave them choices to pick from for their menus. It was all paid by Medicare so I didn't see a bill. Their physical therapist was excellent. Most of the help were cheery and helpful."
