The Forum at Overland Park

We visited The Forum and the whole place seemed a little bit too fancy for what my mother-in-law would feel comfortable in. It was almost over the top. They didn't have assisted living available at that time, but they did have independent living available. We looked at one of the apartments. It was good and very spacious. It was just like a regular one-bedroom apartment with a little kitchen. I liked it a lot. They got different areas in the building where people could get together. They also have a lot of activities for residents to participate in.

We visited the The Forum at Overland Park in the region while searching for a suitable assisted living facility for our aunt. Many of our family members live in the area, so this would be an ideal place for her to live.

The outer grounds looked well-kept and pleasant. The staff greeted us and seemed very warm and friendly - which is the most important thing to our family. We want our uncle to be treated well in his new home.

The foyer was nicely decorated and seemed homey, as did all of the communal rooms. The apartments were all clean, well-kept and conveniently designed. They take the time to personalize them to each resident's tastes.

The activity calendar featured many healthy and stimulating activities. We liked that the staff encourages participation and tries to make everything interesting for its residents.

They have outings to local libraries, events, culture, restaurants, shopping and even athletic activities. They take suggestions to update the schedule as much as possible.

The dining areas were nicely designed and warm. Residents may choose communal dining or more private situations. There are places for seniors to visit with families, as well.

The food looked deliciously prepared, as well as nutritious. The dietician and chef changes up the menu to keep it interesting and encourage resident to make suggestions.

We've visited quite a few assisted living facilities and thus far, this is one of our favorites. From the attentive staff to its friendly vibe, we were very impressed with this senior living environment with all that it has to offer.
