These current public-data fields deserve follow-up with the facility and the official Medicare record. They are not a clinical risk score or a substitute for an in-person assessment.
This facility has areas of concern that warrant careful consideration. Registered Nurse hours are 43% of the EveryPlace reference benchmark; ask how RN coverage is allocated across shifts. The latest standard survey recorded 20 findings, above the KS average of 10.1. We recommend asking the administrator directly: "How are you addressing recent staffing shortfalls?" These are not reasons to panic, but they are reasons to ask tough questions and visit in person.
Orchard Gardens is currently undergoing a period of transition, with recent reviews noting significant improvements in management and facility appearance. However, serious historical concerns regarding sanitation, pest infestations, and financial transparency must be addressed by any prospective family.

Key Review Excerpts
“The facility is working on lots of improvements regarding the overall look and feel of the community. They truly care about the residents and making sure they feel like they are at home.”
“New admin. In place. Doing much better with every thing”
“Absolutely disgusting facility.. unsanitary conditions. Went to visit a family member to find roaches crawling freely, and mice EVERYWHERE.”
Both RN and total nursing hours are below the EveryPlace reference benchmarks. Ask the facility how it staffs each shift for current resident needs.
Reference benchmarks (0.75 RN and 4.1 total nursing hours per resident/day) are comparison targets, not current federal minimum requirements.

Original nursing home datasets
EveryPlace is a research directory. Facility information is compiled from public sources — Medicare.gov, state licensing portals, Google Places, and publicly available street-level imagery. Some summaries, interpretations, suggested questions, and pricing research are AI-generated or AI-assisted and may contain errors or omit important context. Listings do not constitute endorsement, recommendation, or advertisement, and we do not accept payment for placement. Families should verify all details directly with the facility and the original sources linked above before making any care decisions. See our Research Policy for our editorial standards, correction process, and image-removal policy.
