The Best Memory Care Communities in Johnson County, KS

"We liked Brookdale Overland Park. It was nice, but they didn't have the level of care that my father needed. They also did not have an opening, and we just saw the common areas in the assisted living. The place where my father will have to be while waiting for a room to become available was more like a nursing home, but it was fine. The staff was very nice."

"The care at Cypress Springs went fine; the staff was good. It was always clean with a nice yard. I think it’s a good place from what I’ve seen. It’s a small place; it’s only one floor. They have pretty good activities; my husband went on one field trip. I would recommend it, but people have to look or visit because it’s not a big building. "

"Everyone at Sunrise of Leawood was very friendly and welcoming. The facility was very clean. All the residents looked well taken care of. I loved how they had the front and back porch with rocking chairs. I also loved the little different nooks where residents could sit privately and read, or watch TV. I only saw one apartment at the time, because that was the only one empty, and I would not have chosen that one. It was too small and outdated. Michelle was excellent. She answered all my questions and was very helpful, and proactive and she has checked on me since my tour."

"We visited Brookdale, but they were really too high-priced. It was clean, and the rooms were similar to the others. They have lots of activities, a lot of music, and people from outside who come in and perform. They have a theater room, and they have birds in cages."

"I toured Mission Chateau. The staff treated me very well, they were friendly, they were informative, they did a very thorough tour of the facility, and made sure I had any questions answered. The facility itself was very light, bright, up-to-date, and clean. It's almost like a country club. It is so nice. Their food service thing looked pretty awesome, because it looked like they had a breakfast bar, like every morning you come down and have your breakfast cooked to order. That was something different than I saw in any of the other places where you had a lot better choice for food. So, food is important. The downside of Mission Chateau was the size of the apartments were fairly small compared to others. They had a swimming pool, they had a whole weight room. It was kind of more like a country club, but my mother-in-law was just not a country club kind of gal, so that just wasn't going to work for her."

"I liked the staff at Brookdale Leawood State Line. They're very, very friendly. They were very person-centric, so they worked very hard on having this service (that's what they told me). I liked how I thought they would to treat my mom. The staff was wonderful. I really liked her. Their facilities were very nice, very clean, and big. I thought the facilities were fine. They had a salon. It was not as close, and that was a big reason why I kind of took it off the list. They also charged extra for things that the other place I went to included."

"The Village was a front runner for our family. The placement did not occur but we were impressed with the admissions process. Valerie was very helpful and informative to help our family understand Eldercare and our options. The Village at Mission offers so many options to streamline the care your family member needs. We were there at mealtime and noticed that the residents seemed content and were interacting. The dining room and common areas are attractive and welcoming. The new ownership is working on remodeling to modernize the facility even more. We saw a couple of rooms. Both were well apportioned and had nice window views. "

"We liked The Crestone Senior Living. It was an excellent place. The staff was wonderful to talk to and work with. We were able to have a meal there and it was excellent. Everything about that across the board is a number five, but they were about $1500 more a month than the other place and they don't accept Medicaid. So as soon as I run out of money, I'm going to have to move my wife out of there and put her into another place. It's one of the most expensive ones. The rooms were excellent. The studio didn't have anything else except the room and the bathroom. It had a sink with a microwave and a small refrigerator, so that was nice, probably not necessary because she would probably forget that it was even there. Everything in that place was nice. It didn't have a range. There was counterspace."

"My parents are settled in here, which has a very homey atmosphere. My parents were very impressed by the fact that when they first arrived, everybody knew who they were and called them by name immediately. From day one, the residents and the staff talked to us. They're all very caring. The room is rather small but very clean and has a kitchenette with a living room, bedroom, and bathroom. They have lots of activities, but they haven’t been involved in those much yet. They played bingo. They don’t have a work out center. The biggest thing that really impressed me is that they have continuum care, so they never have to be separated; if one needs to go into memory care, the other can go with them or if they need assisted, they can stay in the assisted side. That was very important to me. "

"The Madison Senior Living is kind of a long way out in more or less an industrial neighborhood. The only one that I could afford there was a studio. The unit was extremely small, partly because they put a full-sized washer and dryer in the only closet that was for bedroom-bathroom use. The closet that would be left available for hanging clothes was very, very small. I think it was brand new, and everything was nice. If I could have afforded a bigger unit there, I might have given it more consideration, but that was out of my budget. They are in the process of building a facility outside for more activities, like barbecues and things. It is not done yet. There was a storage place across the road. There was a convenience store/gas station on your way to the highway from the building, which could be nice. There are also plenty of shops within a mile, like Target and Walmart. The dining area is a restaurant, and it is open all day. You can go on your own time schedule to get meals, and all meals are included. Adjacent to that is a snack bar, where they put out a variety of snacks. A lot of them are healthy and some of them are not, but you can grab them at your convenience at no extra charge. I looked at the menu, and there was quite a lot of variety, including healthy options. It is a fairly new facility, and there weren't many residents around. I only met two staff members, and they were both nice, pleasant, and professional. They also have a few carports, but no garage parking. The reason that I rate the facilities that low is that they're not really efficiently planned. The studio apartment was like a hotel room, so I can't see anybody living there full time."

"I toured The Village at Olathe. The people who toured me around were very, very nice. I didn't particularly like the location, but it wasn't anything specific to where it was. I didn't like independent living, and the parking situation was not the best. The rooms were a little small, but they were nice. One thing that it did not have much of was closet space. The closet space was minimal. However, their dining area was nice and beautiful, and they have a nice library, a game room, an exercise room, and all that. That was all OK. It's just the location, and the parking situation wasn't good at all."

"It was very nice. They had an assisted living facility and a regular senior living facility. The units were very nice. The community was very nice and new. We saw everything. They had a place to go to church, a place to work out, and they had a nice cafeteria. It was very much up to date. The food was very good. It was very clean and spotless."

"Very nice building and suites Staff are pleasant and helpful Many activities and conveniences"
