    Review Summary

    The following is an AI generated summary of the reviews of the community from across the web.

    Miller's Merry Manor in Wakarusa has received mixed reviews from residents and their families. Some have praised the facility for its reasonable pricing, clean and spacious rooms, and the variety of activities available, including bingo, exercise classes, and card games. The food, often described as very good, ranges from home-cooked Amish-Mennonite dishes to a variety of other options. The staff is frequently mentioned as being nice, helpful, and caring, contributing to a family-like atmosphere.

    However, concerns have been raised regarding the continuity of care due to the use of agency staff, leading to a lack of familiarity between patients and caregivers. Some reviews have highlighted issues with the responsiveness and attitude of the night staff, particularly in emergency situations. There have been instances of neglect, such as not responding to help lights promptly and not properly attending to medical needs, leading to hospital visits. Concerns about patient confidentiality and the professional conduct of some staff members have also been mentioned.

    Despite these issues, many families have had positive experiences, noting the facility's cleanliness, the quality of care in the rehab area, and the personal attention given to residents. The facility's setting in a rural area with pretty grounds and the opportunity for outdoor activities is appreciated by some. However, it's clear that experiences can vary, and while some would consider returning under certain circumstances, others express significant concerns about the quality of care and staff behavior.
