Care in Manhattan

Finding care in Manhattan.

Manhattan is the Riley County seat, where the Big Blue River meets the Kansas River, and is home to Kansas State University. We help families across downtown, Aggieville and Westloop.

In Kansas, home care agencies that give non-medical help such as companionship, chores, bathing and dressing must be licensed by the Kansas Department of Health and Environment.

Tell us where in Manhattan you are and what you need, and we’ll recommend options that serve your area.
