Worth County Care & Rehab Awarded VA Contract

The Worth County Care and Rehabilitation Center, a designated CMS 5-Star Quality facility, has recently been awarded by the Veteran’s Administration for their Community Nursing Home program.  “This program is offered so Veterans can receive care near their homes and families.  VA nursing home care is for veterans too elderly, sick, or disabled to care for themselves, but do not require hospital care,” stated Administrator Kelly Summa, LNHA.  “Many of the local VA care centers have waiting lists and are unable to accommodate new residents; we have openings and are able to immediately accept new residents under the program.”  Veterans can live full time and receive skilled nursing care any time of day or night.  There is no limit on the length of time a veteran can remain in a VA paid contract nursing home.

As a community owned facility, the Worth County Care and Rehabilitation Center is locally owned and controlled, dedicated to creating a home-like atmosphere and the most loving care possible.  Our home style meals feature fruits and vegetables from our ‘farm-to-table’ initiative with local gardeners sharing their harvest and strive to eliminate prepackaged and processed foods.  The facility offers on-site physical, occupational, and speech rehabilitation therapy and a handicap-equipped van is available for transportation to medical appointments.  Our facility as 24-hour, 7-days a week nursing care by an experienced and gerontology trained staff.  Activities for residents are key to our success, from baby showers  to bingo, cookouts and rodeo attendance, you can follow our Facebook page, Worth County Care and Rehabilitation Center to keep up on all the fun.

Worth County Care and Rehabilitation Center is located at 503 E. 4th in Grant City, Missouri.  If you are interested in more information regarding this program or other skilled care needs, contact Kelly Summa at 660-564-3304 or email worthccc@windstream.net.
