Nursing homes across Wyandotte County, Kansas, graded on the federal inspection
record, nurse staffing and staff turnover. County rank is shown on each home's profile.
Life Care Center of Kansas City runs on thinner nurse coverage than most homes, 3.48 hours per resident day against a national average of 3.86, and weekends drop about 15% below its own weekday levels. That staffing pattern comes with 52.2% annual turnover, higher than the 45.8% national figure, which means the people caring for residents keep changing. The inspection record shows 61 deficiencies, one serious enough to involve harm or jeopardy, though none tied to abuse; the last survey was in August 2025, so the picture is reasonably current. The quality measure scores look strong and the health inspection score doesn't, which is a split worth asking about directly when you visit.
Providence Place runs 45 beds in Kansas City under corporate for-profit ownership, and its clinical quality scores are genuinely strong, a 5 out of 5 on CMS quality measures. The staffing picture is more mixed: 3.80 nurse hours per resident day sits just under the national average of 3.86, and weekends drop roughly 15% below the home's own weekday coverage. Annual turnover hits 50%, above the 45.8% national figure. Inspections in August 2025 turned up 29 deficiencies, though none rose to harm or jeopardy, and none involved abuse. What that adds up to is a home with real clinical strengths and a staffing margin thin enough that weekends and turnover are worth asking about directly.
Riverbend Post Acute Rehabilitation runs 131 certified beds in Kansas City under for-profit corporate ownership, and CMS has placed it in the Special Focus Facility program, a designation reserved for homes with a persistent record of serious problems. The current inspection record shows 44 deficiencies, including one at the harm or jeopardy level and two tied to abuse, plus $84,023 in fines across two events. Nurse staffing sits at 3.53 hours per resident day, roughly 9% under the national average, and weekends run about 7% thinner than weekdays. Turnover is 35.5%, better than the 45.8% national figure, but that's the one number here that works in its favor.
Kaw River Care and Rehab runs 45 certified beds in Edwardsville under for-profit LLC ownership, and the direct-care hours tell a familiar story: 3.56 per resident day against a national average of 3.86, with weekends dropping roughly 14 percent below the home's own weekday pace. Staff turnover sits at 58.1 percent, well above the 45.8 percent national figure, so the people showing up on Saturday are often the newest hires. The inspection record is the heavier problem, 48 deficiencies, including two at harm or jeopardy level and three tied to abuse, with a 2/5 health inspection rating and 1/5 on quality measures. The most recent inspection was in May 2025.
Parkway Operator runs 45 beds in Edwardsville under for-profit LLC ownership, and its staffing is the number that stands out: 3.43 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 11% under the national average, with weekends about 10% lighter than weekdays. Annual turnover sits at 51.2% against a national 45.8%, so the aides and nurses cycling through are changing faster than typical. The current inspection record carries 20 deficiencies, one serious enough to reach harm or jeopardy level, though none are abuse-related; the last survey was August 2024. Federal ratings land at three stars for health inspections and quality measures, two for staffing.
Edwardsville Care And Rehab runs on 2.24 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 42% under the national average of 3.86, and weekend coverage drops about 11% below its own weekday level. Staff turnover is 22%, well under the national 45.8%, so the people who are there tend to stay. The trouble is what inspections found: 36 deficiencies on the current record, including 3 at harm or jeopardy level and 2 abuse-related, plus $47,163 in fines across three penalties, with the last inspection in August 2024. Resident outcome measures score well, but the health inspection side is where the risk sits.
Nurse staffing at The Healthcare Resort Of Kansas City runs 4.34 hours per resident day, roughly 13% above the national average, but the workforce behind those hours churns hard, 60.4% turnover against a national 45.8%. Weekends drop about 15% below weekday coverage. The inspection record is the bigger problem: a 1-out-of-5 health inspection rating, 55 deficiencies logged, three of them at harm or jeopardy level and five tied to abuse. One fine totaling $28,834 is on file. Ownership is a for-profit limited liability company, and the most recent inspection was May 2026. Strong quality measure scores don't offset that history.
Willow Point runs about 45 beds in Kansas City, and its overall nurse staffing, 3.85 hours per resident day, sits essentially at the national average of 3.86, though weekends drop roughly 14% below its own weekday coverage. The bigger problem is who's giving that care: annual turnover hits 80% against a national 45.8%, so the faces change constantly. The inspection record backs that up, with 57 deficiencies on file, five at harm or jeopardy level and four tied to abuse. Ownership is corporate, for-profit, and the last inspection was October 2024.
Bonner Springs Nursing & Rehab Center runs on 2.84 nurse hours per resident per day, roughly a quarter below the national average, and weekends drop another 12% below its own weekday level. That thin coverage sits behind a 1-out-of-5 rating on staffing, and the workforce numbers explain why: 82.4% annual turnover, nearly double the national rate. Inspectors cited 59 deficiencies on the current record, four serious enough to put residents in harm's way, three tied to abuse, with $39,696 in fines. The last inspection was April 2025. This is a small for-profit LLC home with a 1-out-of-5 record on all three CMS measures, staffing, health inspections, and quality.
