Assisted Living Communities in Kansas City, KS

"I have inspected quite a few residences in the Southern Kansas city area and this is by far the best of the lot. The lady I worked with, Kelly, was very friendly but more importantly, knew her business extremely well. She understood our problems and work hard to reach a solution for us. The facility was clean, bright and cheerful and the residents seemed happy and without problem. I think we have found our home! "

"I went to The Gardens at Barry Road. It was clean and it did not smell. The room was clean and organized. I observed activities. The residents were sitting and eating, they were sitting and watching TV, and they were getting their meds. The staff who helped us were nice and professional. They answered our questions."

"I liked the cleanliness, space, friendliness of the employees and how they set up their community. The staff was very knowledgeable about their residents and what they offer. They gave me a little bag of cookies from their kitchen. In the independent living facility, they had a stove and refrigerator. In the assisted living facility, they had a mini-fridge. They do have outdoor spaces and a patio area for games and seating."

"I picked Mission Chateau because it was very clean and very new. I didn't notice any odors or anything like that. It's also very close to my home. My mom moved in last month. They're doing the best they can in the circumstances that we are in right now. They've had a lot of turnover, and I think they're a relatively young facility. I just think that they need some additional training on how to treat people with memory care. I think the food is really good. They keep her very busy. They're in a Covid lockdown because they've had an outbreak. Prior to this outbreak, she was very busy. She doesn't have Covid, so she could leave her room; however, all activities have been canceled because of the Covid outbreak."

"Armour Oaks Senior Living was a nice place. They have nice apartments. I haven't tried their food, but I saw some of it and it looked really good. They have a lot of activities and it would be a good place for my brother. It was a nice visit. They did a good job. I think their floor plans were pretty much the same. Each room has what they call a sunroom, which is a place where a person can go and just kind of relax a little bit. That was very nice. I looked at a one-bedroom. I think it's a good place. I'm going to take my brother there and let him look at the place himself. It's not perfect, but it's nice."

"My sister is in The Grand Royale's assisted living facility in Gladstone for respite care. They're helping her to get rehabilitated. They're doing physical therapy, occupational therapy, and giving her medicines. The staff members are excellent. Her living space is very spacious. The facility itself is very clean, and it's very nice. I really don't participate in the activities, and my sister doesn't need them right now, but I do know that they have them. I only know what they are charging my sister because it's daily for respite care, and I would say that it's pretty fair."

"I visited Tiffany Springs Senior Living Community, and it was excellent. It was close to home, where we live. It was all new, I'll put it that way. They had nice apartments or private rooms. The staff was excellent, and everybody was friendly. I didn't observe anybody doing anything. They were just all sitting around tables, they weren't doing any activities. The dining area was nice, I saw the kitchen and so forth."

"My mother moved to the assisted living of Garden Villas of Lenexa, and it's been excellent. We chose this place because they were reasonable, provide great care, and are a nice facility. The community is friendly, with nice rooms, a nice building, and good amenities. They provide her meals, they do bingo and games, mass, and movies. The staff was very nice. She has a nice balcony that overlooks the grounds, and I like the layout of the place. Her room is not far from the elevator, and the elevator takes her to most of the activities."

"I went to Trustwell Living of Overland Park. The people and the staff were nice, and the residents seemed happy. I didn't really like the location. It's around a bunch of businesses, and they could have a much better parking lot. Everything they showed me was really nice. I met some of the people that worked there, and they seemed very happy to be there and liked their jobs. I liked the rooms they showed me, and they had a nice courtyard where people can go outside and get some fresh air."

"Brookdale Wornall Place was lovely. I liked the people who I met there. However, it was so far out. Nevertheless, if I am to consider some place again, I would give it a serious thought. One of the things that I really like about their living quarters was that they have kitchenettes. They have small fireplaces and walk-in closets. The room was more up-to-date than where I am now. I talked to a couple of people who live there and they seemed to be happy. They were telling me about some of the activities. I probably could fit in there really good. The staff members were very accommodating. It seemed like a nice place. They were great. I saw their menu and their dining room area and it looked great. The place was huge and gorgeous. They had a pool, too; I was very impressed. The price was a little higher, but I really liked it."

"The tour I had of Sunrise of Leawood was very positive and very encouraging. I liked the fact that you felt like you were in a home with the hallways. They had comfortable sitting areas, so you didn't feel like you just had a long hallway of apartments. They had multiple common areas. We were very comfortable with the fact that they would be able to take care of my mother's needs. They were very reassuring with what their capabilities were and showed us various apartments. I think the best way to describe it was just comfortable. You didn't feel like it was an institution. You felt like it was a comfortable place to be, not someplace that you were forced into. They had kind of a patio, but because they have memory care, things are more restricted. They were working hard trying to help ensure that the memory group did not wander off. The facility looked very good. They had an exercise area, a television area, an entertainment area, and we saw a piano for entertainment that they bring in and things along those lines, but they did not have the big entertainment facilities that you see at some of the others."

"Brookdale Overland Park all seemed very nice. It had a bit of a corporate feel instead of a homey feel. They had an outdoor area, they had a dining hall, and the bedrooms are a good size. We met their activity director and he was working one-on-one with a gentleman right then. And it looked like they had interesting spaces for the residents to be able to go in and visit and what have you. It was very well-appointed. It looked like an Italian feel to it, kind of, the architecture inside. We've been very pleased with the activities that have gone on over in the memory care and the rehab area that Mom is currently in. I haven't had a meal there but my mother has certainly enjoyed the food. They were on the more expensive side, but I would say that the value for the money was favorable. We still considered them even though they were the most expensive of the ones we looked at."
