I came to be an administrative staff member with Buffalo Prairie Nursing and Rehab in March 2025. Since then, I have witnessed some of the most caring and loving staff in all my almost 30 years of nursing. Our residents are happy and well cared for each day by people who take caring for others to heart. We are constantly searching for ways to enhance the lives of the people we serve. I am proud of our compassion and determination towards our goal to make each resident feel at home. I am so thankful for this opportunity to share in their lives. Thank you to all of the residents and family who allow me to be part of their lives by choosing our home!

This a a smaller home which makes it very homey. I absolutely love the memory care unit, they have nice outside flowers and a place to sit to enjoy them. They also get a homestyle meal three times a day.

Buffalo Prairie has the most caring and loving staff there is for a nursing home. I would highly recommend putting any of my family that was in need of a nursing home in Buffalo Prairie. I have been inside several nursing homes and you will not find a more loving place

I don’t think this is some terrible facility by any means. The staff has generally been friendly and I have never seen them mistreat residents. I don’t think the facility will at all mistreat your loved one. I just have had trouble when the church I pastor tried to organize a bible study. We really tried to do a simple midweek study for the residents, but the staff would never work with us to help get residents there and wouldn’t even give us a consistent location where we could meet. It was disappointing. It also seems like every year that we try to organize our Christmas caroling with them they always “forget” that we called a few weeks in advance and then often the day of to make sure they were ready for us. It’s a nice place. I know for sure that they love their residents, but they have some issues with organization.

They did a great job with my Mom's recovery. They had no problems meeting her changing needs and treatment plans. The staff and administration were responsive to her needs and listened to her and any concerns we had as the family. Mom has had a rough go over the past year and we have been blessed with a lot of good providers but when I tell you that she has completed treatment at this facility with no issues of med errors, not one incident report or fall you should take that very seriously if you are considering a rehab or placement for your loved one. Outside of the staff being so friendly and caring, the food was terrific. No one could get my Mom to eat but she has gotten her appetite back and is her strength is renewed. This placement was a pleasant, pleasant surprise and so close to home!
