Oxford Vista Wichita

Oxford Vista Wichita is really big, airy, clean, and well kept. At the time, they had just opened this wing, so the staff was pretty limited, but we knew that was going to change. They seem to have quite a range of activities, but my father isn't interested in doing any of it. They have a common area where I've seen people gathering with a TV and everything. I know that they do different activities because they've even come to his room when I'm there visiting and offered him to come and join, and he has declined. He usually eats in his room. He seems to enjoy the food, and it's pretty good. They have a real nice common area for people that want to be more social.

I went to Oxford Vista Wichita. They took over an old home, and so they had updated part of that. They had apartments there that were in a price range that was lower than the others. It's kind of a rounded building, and it's a big one. It covers about two blocks. At one end they have some assisted living, and at the other end they have memory care. They said they don't have staff that aren't working there all day, and they bring in third party home health care providers. My sister had told me that of all the ones that she thought, Oxford Vista had the most all-around environment and community, and that people seemed to be the friendliest, not just with everybody, but with new people. The residents themselves were just friendly. The place was big and spacious. We ate there, and it was a good meal. They have a lounge there with a bar and a pool table. It would be at the top of my list. The second biggest thing about Oxford Vista is its affordability for me right now. They seemed to be well coordinated with each other. We met some of them in the hallway or in the elevator, and everybody was just very friendly. It seemed well organized. We had quesadillas, and I got a salad with it. The dessert was good. It was like ice cream, but it looked like rice that was kind of held together. It was flavorful. They have a menu, and if you don't want to eat that, you could get something else that they could put together for you, like a sandwich. We were impressed by how nice it was. The staff had been there for 12 years, and she said, "When we moved in, we just moved in, and everything was left in very good condition." The walls are really high like an old building. The wood column was in good shape. There was nice carpeting. The elevator was not rickety or anything like that. They had garages. They were big enough that a lot of people would have room for storage. It was something I was pleased with just by looking at them and how wide they were.

We looked at the independent living part. We talked to some of the residents. I would not call their food super, but it was good. The personnel were nice. The place was not as new, but the rooms that they did show us were nice.

It was close to my home, and the rooms at the memory and assisted living were fancy, nice and roomy, with a bed, a bathroom, and a kitchenette. They had a big dining room, and they built the floors to look like a house so when you walked in, the rooms were in a so-called house, but it was a façade of a house when you walked in the door. The people were also great in explaining things to us.

It was a nice big place. It had a beautiful eating area, and the gathering room was nice. The people were extremely friendly. It's a little bit older building, but it had been remodeled, and it was beautiful inside. The lady who assisted me was excellent and helped me understand everything about the place. The rooms were beautiful. It's a Masonic home, but you don’t have to be a Mason to be a resident.

My mother is a resident there. Over the last 2 years, she has had an excellent experience. The facility is very nice, always clean, homey, and the staff is great. They truly care for the residents. We could not be happier. It is such a blessing to know that our mother is in such good hands, especially when we're so far away from Wichita.
