About Wellington Health And Rehab

Wellington Health and Rehab is a skilled nursing and long-term care community in Wellington, Kansas, operated by Mission Health. It serves residents requiring ongoing medical care and rehabilitation in a small-town setting.

Families consistently praise the staff's dedication and warmth. Multiple reviewers highlight attentive care and a family-like atmosphere, with one family noting the staff "make the residents their number one priority." Several families mention the facility maintains engaging activities and keeps residents involved. The community is fully staffed with local personnel rather than agency workers, which families identify as a meaningful advantage. Some residents and families also note clean rooms and good food quality.

However, a small number of reviews raise serious concerns about care standards and communication gaps. One family reported inadequate assistance with toileting and unresponsive communication; another cited missing personal belongings after discharge; a third noted odor and food quality issues. These accounts stand in stark contrast to the majority experience.

Wellington Health and Rehab holds a 4.6-star Google rating based on 32 reviews, reflecting predominantly positive feedback alongside a minority of critical assessments that deserve careful consideration when evaluating the community.

Mission Health, who owns both nursing homes in Wellington is such a great thing for this community. To have a 5 star building in a community as small as Wellington is a blessing for families that live here. In addition, the starting wage is higher than most. Our buildings no longer rely on agency staff, we are fully staffed with people from our community, and close lying communities. These are your friends, neighbors and loved ones. No family is perfect, but ours is pretty close.
