What are we doing here?

Skilled Nursing Services

Skilled nursing care is designed for individuals who cannot care for themselves due to physical, emotional or mental conditions.  People recovering from a serious injury or illness may need these services to regain their strength and independence. 

For people who have lost their ability to function independently, these services may be a long-term need.  Our nursing home staff provides assistance with bathing, dressing, eating, grooming, getting in and out of bed, moving about, incontinence care and all activities of daily living.

With 274 beds in our skilled nursing facility, the Lutheran Home is the largest facility of its type in Southeast Missouri. 

​Our size allows us to provide residents with services that are not available in smaller facilities, including wound care and in-house rehabilitation therapy services.
