Wilshire At Lakewood in Lee’s Summit, Missouri, operates as a nursing home that delivers 24-hour skilled nursing care. The facility is equipped to provide both physical therapy and restorative therapy, allowing residents recovering from injury, illness, or surgery to work with licensed therapists on-site. Treatment schedules are set according to physician orders, and therapy staff coordinate closely with nursing personnel to track progress and adjust goals.
Beyond the formal therapy programs, Wilshire At Lakewood maintains round-the-clock nursing coverage, routine health assessments, and medication management. Care plans are reviewed regularly with input from physicians, nurses, and therapists to ensure that each resident’s needs are met as conditions change. The facility can also arrange transportation to outside medical appointments when required, and on-call physicians are consulted for any changes in condition.
Resident accommodations include a selection of private and semiprivate rooms. Some living spaces offer direct access to outdoor areas for fresh air and recreation, while others emphasize interior convenience. A phone line is available in many, but not all, rooms, so families who want in-room telephone service should confirm availability in advance.
Dining services provide three daily meals prepared on-site. Menus are created with guidance from a registered dietitian, and therapeutic diets can be accommodated for residents with specific medical or nutritional requirements. Staff members assist residents who need help eating, and alternative selections are offered at each meal to address personal preferences or physician-ordered meal plans.
Recreational options include regularly scheduled bingo sessions and access to a dedicated activity center that hosts crafts, group discussions, and other social events. Participation is voluntary, and schedules are posted in advance so residents can choose the programs that best fit their interests.
