Saint Luke’s Bishop Spencer Place is proud of our employees and the hard work they provide to our community day in and out. Our staff provides the utmost care and service 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Our community wouldn’t be ranked best in U.S. News and World Report if it weren’t for our caring staff. Staffing is just one element of the US News ratings, which also evaluates patient and resident care, safety, and outcomes.
KSHB talked to our Director of Sales, Mendi Hanna, about what we are doing to keep our residents active and engaged while staying safe.
Bill Buckner, one of our fantastic Bishop Spencer Place residents, was only eight years old when his father, General Simon Bolivar Buckner Jr., personally mixed and served mint juleps for President Franklin Roosevelt and General Douglas MacArthur in 1935. At 90 years old, Bill continues to share the story of how this famous beverage came to be a favorite of FDR.
The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services has released its most recent Medicare Star Rating Report and we are pleased to announce that our York Place Skilled Nursing & Rehab has maintained its overall 5-star status — and has also achieved a 5-Star rating in every one of the sub-ratings. The sub-ratings include health inspection, quality measures, staffing and RN staffing.
According to Medicare’s Nursing Home Compare website, York Place is the only skilled nursing & rehab community out of 133 such communities within 50 miles of the 64111 ZIP code that has an overall 5-star rating plus five stars in all the sub-ratings.
