Assisted Living Communities in Derby, KS

"I toured The Rushwood Senior Living. The grounds are beautiful. They have an outdoor shuffleboard and a pool table. It was very nice. They have big, wide hallways. You could run four wheelchairs side by side down to it. The staff was tremendous. They invited us back for brunch one day, and it was very nice. The dining area looked like a nice restaurant. Everything was great. It was just out of our price range."

"I was very impressed with Park West Plaza. They were very attentive while I waited for whoever was supposed to come and give me the tour. They wanted to make sure I was taken care of. For memory care, they had an area where they could go out, but someone would help them go into this one area, which I thought was nice. My sister would need to have someone use a code to get her into that area. She couldn't just go out the door on her own; she probably could, but an alarm would go off. I did not sample the food, but she would have a choice should she not like what was on the menu that day. The staff was very informative and very helpful."

"We are on the waiting list for Azria Health Wichita. I think they're going to be a good fit for my mom. I would say their dining facility is top notch. The facility has lots of amenities and lots of activities. I haven't tried their food, but I saw several people eating and it looked fantastic. It was very nice. The staff who toured me around was extraordinary. For activities, they were getting ready for viewing college football games. They had a theater. They were playing bingo. They had a room where you can play pool or cards or do any kind of activity you want to do. They had libraries for just reading. They really go above and beyond to make people feel at home."

"I like the atmosphere at Dove Estates. It seemed like the people there were very happy, and they kept telling me the food was good. The family member that I am helping to move there is a master gardener, and she could work in the courtyard and the raised gardens. That would be very important to her. It was a very pleasant atmosphere, and I think she'll be happy there. I talked to Renee, and she was wonderful to work with. The facility was extremely clean and fresh-smelling. The decor was very light and bright with lots of big windows. I would highly recommend them at this point."

"My mom is in Vintage Place of Derby and everything is just fine. It is a beautiful community with adequate rooms. I haven't tried eating there, but my mom said the food is good and she likes it. They also have exercises, bingo, and card games. They have something going on every day. I don't have any problems with the community so far. "

"My dad moved into Derby Assisted Living. They have a great nursing staff. The rooms are not too big, not too small, and just right for getting around. The staff is treating my dad well, like a family. It is close to the community that my dad lived in before. His room was clean. It was more economical."

"It was heartbreaking when my mother developed dementia. I had to learn a lot about how to care for her. Watching the way the staff at Glen Carr helped Mom was a lesson in itself. They walked with us through this difficult experience to the end. The facility is homey and beautiful. The open layout works well for people who might easily get lost. I would recommend Glen Carr to anyone looking for a safe and caring home for a loved one."

"The people at Maria Court were very helpful. Even the agency person who was there was very helpful when we visited. My mother felt very comfortable as we toured there. She said the people were very friendly. The facility was very clean and quiet. They were renovating the dining room. It has lots of windows to see out and the property is taken care of very well. Residents told us the food was very good and they were happy with it."

"There have been alot of changes in this facility in the last year. Overall improvements in staff and atmosphere. I visited this place for my mom after having had an uncle here in past and the changes are really great. I would recommend it to anyone not wanting a boring, quiet lifestyle. It has a friendly and fun atmosphere, and can definitely see that they truly do try to meet all the needs. "

"We went to Mount Saint Mary. I felt very comfortable there. The apartments are smaller than what I was wanting. It was a good place, it was just not big enough for me. It was pleasing, and it was clean."

"This is the most wonderful place, staff is wonderful and caring. My husband had dementia and they were so considerate and patient with him. In ancient Greek, "agape" (ἀγάπη) translates to "love, affection, benevolence, or good will," often understood as a selfless, unconditional, and sacrificial love, distinct from other Greek words for love like "eros" (romantic love) or "philia" (friendship). That is a perfect discerption of this place. I feel it was a miracle that we found this place when we were needing it so bad."

"My mom moved into ComfortCare Homes. Besides two other providers that responded, ComfortCare Homes was the first to respond. They were just very thorough, and they were the first to set an appointment. They have actual homes that have been converted, so the homey feeling is what I was looking for. Each home offers a different level of memory care. The other thing that attracted me was that my mom is getting a brand-new room. The construction is in process, and when the new rooms are done she gets to choose her room. The staff members are very personable. The nurse sat with me, and we went through all the medications. The fact that they staff their people with CNAs and nurses and not the general public is very important to me. I was very pleased with that. All of them that I've encountered have been extremely thorough and helpful. They'd call me during the day and at night to let me know what was going on. It's been such a big relief. The facility is very clean. It's impressive to see how they're able to manage taking care of six people, having the construction go on, and still maintain the cleanliness that they have. I am very impressed by that. When I went there yesterday to take my mom to the doctor, there was a fellow there entertaining them. The residents sang along with some songs that they were familiar with. They have puzzles and a lot of socialization. On Mondays they do manicures for the ladies. They try to encourage the residents to socialize in the family room where they have TVs. All their homes have pets."

"When my husband was in the hospital, for some reason, he stopped walking. So he was sent to Life Care Center for rehabilitation. The people there are all great. The food is okay, he liked it. Their activities include bingo, movies, and they have people come into the facility to play the piano and guitar. They're all very caring people. "
