Lacoba Homes Inc in Monett, Missouri provides licensed nursing-home care with 24-hour registered and licensed practical nurse coverage. Residents receive ongoing monitoring of vital signs, medication management, wound care, and coordination with physicians and specialists. The facility can also deliver short-term rehabilitation after surgery or illness, with on-site physical, occupational, and speech therapy designed to help residents regain strength and mobility before returning home or moving to a lower level of care.
Beyond direct medical services, the staff arranges laboratory work, X-ray services, and pharmacy delivery so residents do not need to leave the building for routine clinical needs. The team is trained to manage chronic conditions such as diabetes, heart disease, and pulmonary disorders, and hospice and respite stays can be accommodated when ordered by a physician. Social workers assist with care planning and discharge arrangements, and a registered dietitian reviews each resident’s nutritional status to support medical treatment goals.
Accommodations include a mix of private and shared rooms equipped with an emergency call system, climate control, and basic furnishings. Some rooms offer added features such as in-room showers, cable television, or Wi-Fi access; however, these upgrades are not present in every unit. Housekeeping, laundry, and maintenance are provided on a set schedule, and the nursing team performs safety checks throughout the day and night.
Residents take their meals in a central dining room where table service is offered three times daily. The culinary staff prepares menus approved by a dietitian, with mechanical soft, pureed, low-sodium, and diabetic options available as prescribed. Snacks and beverages are accessible between meals, and staff members are on hand to assist anyone who needs help with eating or to monitor fluid intake.
An Activity Center is located on the main floor and serves as the hub for planned programs such as exercise classes, crafts, devotional gatherings, and games. The life-enrichment team posts a daily calendar and encourages residents to attend events that fit their interests and abilities, helping maintain social engagement and cognitive stimulation during their stay.
