The Best Continuing Care Retirement Communities Communities in Osage County, KS

"My mom is at Aldersgate Village Life Plan Community. It's nice and peaceful. She wasn't able to get out of her bed before and now she can, so they're working with her that way. She just looks a lot better than before. Her room has a bed, a recliner, and a dresser. It's pretty neat and clean. There's a bathroom right inside the room. The staff seems to be pretty helpful and ready to help her out. They check on her quite often. The food smells really good and looks good. Also, the place is pretty clean and everything."

"My mother-in-law moved to Providence Homes Plus and we chose it for her, because of its small size. We felt that it would be a better place for her. It is a converted home, so it has a nice and homey atmosphere. She is in the memory care and they have been very good at updating us and keeping us informed. They play cards and other games with the residents. They have them do holiday craft-type activities, too."

"Brewster Place is a big complex. It's been around a long time. I was in an independent living apartment, a friend lived there, it was a really nice size, the rooms, there was a one-bedroom, but you had a separate dining area with the kitchenette, and then a living area, and another bedroom. It was really nice and roomy. They had a party in a common area. My aunt was in one of the assisted living apartments, smaller, but very convenient for her, and very clean. The outside of it is very neat looking. Now they have a clinic onsite. The staff was very helpful and friendly. It's brick, it's a really nice place, probably two or three blocks big, the grounds are kept, and it's always clean and neat."

"Topeka Presbyterian Manor is a very big facility. It has all three levels: independent, assisted, and skilled nursing, and I've been to all sections. The independent section apartments had two rooms or three rooms, but nice size, and had little patios with sliding doors. The assisted room was a little bit smaller, and my friend had a roommate there, but they both had a decent area, room for a chair, their bed, and a little kitchenette area. The nursing level was pretty good with attention to the residents, they had them all out of their rooms, and they were at a table, and some of them were playing cards or they were around the TV. The meals there were very good. That's an excellent place."
