Overview

Whether an individual is recovering from a surgery or illness and in
need of short-term rehabilitation, or facing a longer period of skilled
nursing care, McKnight Place Extended Care provides peace of mind.

We offer exceptional nursing care, as well as a full complement of
therapy services, including physical therapy, occupational therapy and
speech therapy.

Specialized therapy for specific conditions, such as lymphedema, is
provided by a therapist trained to treat these disorders, and all staffers
receive special training in dementia care. Each resident has different
preferences and needs, and our personalized care ensures that each

help maintain the community spirit at McKnight Place Extended Care:
Speakers present intriguing programs that spark ideas and conversation;

enjoy card games, craft projects and cooking demonstrations.
At the heart of McKnight Place Extended Care is its quality of care.

Our staff is excellent in the care they provide. We truly work as a team to make each day exceptional for our residents. We’re able to do this because of the longevity in key care positions and our management team.

McKnight Place Extended Care is locally owned. That makes a difference to our residents, their families and employees. The owners are here, on-site, to address any concerns that may arise. They also care deeply for the community and have chosen to build senior living worthy of their own friends and family – and it shows.

    I had a horrible experience sending my mother here- from admission to her passing away (this was a little over a year ago)- the LPNs were very unprofessional and did not even understand that my mom had dementia- even though the EMR was clear on this, the techs and LPNs were uncaring and left my mom in her urine, were unprofessional with me; the staff lost her DNR paperwork- had my mom sign a new form, but staff filled this out incorrectly; staff did not take care of my mom when she exhibited clear signs of infection, mismanaged doctor's orders to collect stat urine sample; long story short- I was in the facility, trying to get help to get my mom off the toilet, had to repeatedly ask various staff for help- finally got someone to help, and my mom had a heart attack- the ambulance people had to perform CPR on her as the facility did not have the DNR paperwork properly filled out- this was super traumatic for me; I would never send a family member to this facility.

    Wonderful facility, great staff and Management. Caring and committed to providing great care for my husband, a stroke victim. I cannot say enough good things about the starting with Sherrill at Admission who truly made this a seamless and an easy informed decision. Taylor, Ashley, and Jim were just a few of the outstanding nurses that gave outstanding care. Annette had a great group of techs and followed up frequently to insure everything went well with your care. I cannot say enough good things about the care provided. I appreciated the care provided to my husband during this difficult time.

    McKnight is supposedly in the top tier in this area which isn’t saying much. Quality of staff has declined and many sleep on the job and don’t pay enough attention to residents especially after visiting hours. And if you bring anything nice for residents to wear, just expect nicer things to come up missing—they steal.

    HORRIBLE FACILITY DO NOT BRING YOUR LOVED ONES HERE. They only care about a check there are two nurses to watch out for Marietta and Linda they talk to the residents very bad and rude and makes them feel little and like they are nothing it is really sad .They also do not care about there employees they show no loyalty, character, or Honor, a pathetic place .I would choose home healthcare for my family member they Do NOT CARE. And they also have been in the paper negatively…charges a lot for horrible service OH YEA AND THEY HAVE BUGS ROACHES DISGUSTING!
