Memory Care Communities in Olathe, KS

"My overall experience at Garden Villas of Lenexa was excellent. The director contacted me twice beforehand and said that he would meet us at the door, which he did. He took us around as we needed. My brother-in-law doesn't walk well, so he got a wheelchair for him. He was wonderful. He showed us a two-bedroom, two-bath (which is the only thing we are looking for), and we loved it. It was bright, clean, and big. So now my sister and her husband have a difficult decision, but they have to wait and see a couple more. We saw their dining area. It was after lunch, and so everything was being cleaned up. It looked like the staff members were doing what they're supposed to do. Chairs were wiped down, and tables were wiped down. It looked very clean and healthy to me."

"It looks very nice and very attractive. It smells great when you walk in the door. It smells like freshly baked bread. The staff is friendly. A nurse called me several times regarding mom's medication issues, but that's not the facility's problem. Mom has two little rooms and it's very nice. It's enough for her. The bathrooms are accommodating. There's periodically contact with the doctor."

"After spinal surgery and a stroke, my mother went to Brookdale Overland Park for a month of intensive rehabilitation. Her experience was terrific. The nurses, therapists, and doctors on staff were thorough, professional, compassionate, and encouraging. They took the time to get to know her, and encouraged her in a safe and realistic way. She emerged after one month, competent and confident, and ready to return to independent living. In addition, the facility provided excellent activities and self care services like happy hour, football game viewing parties, and a hair salon, making her time there not just productive but also enjoyable. Finally, the administrative and support staff provided me with the information I needed with regard to finances and continuing care upon discharge from the facility. Overall, I would give Brookdale Overland Park a double thumbs up. We loved everything about it!"

"My relative will move into Trustwell Living of Overland Park. The woman who called me, whose name was Beth, was like a breath of fresh air. The whole place is clean, and it doesn't smell bad. It's awesome. They serve three meals a day. They have a patio and a safe walking path for your loved one to go out and walk on."

"We toured Sunrise of Leawood and got some information. The person who assisted us was very helpful and very friendly. The facilities looked very nice. So, we got a good impression of the place."

"We recently made the decision to move our loved one into Brookdale, and it has been an incredibly positive experience. From the moment we walked through the doors, we were met with warmth and compassion from every member of the team. The sales leader, Allison, was particularly outstanding. From our first interaction, she was patient, understanding, and informative. She took the time to answer all our questions and put our minds at ease during what could have been a very stressful time. Her deep knowledge of memory care and her genuine passion for helping families shone through in every conversation. We never felt rushed or pressured; instead, we felt supported and empowered to make the best decision for our loved one. The memory care program at Brookdale is exceptional. The specialized activities and therapies have made a significant difference in our loved one's quality of life. The staff is trained to handle the unique challenges that come with memory care, and they do so with a level of kindness and professionalism that is truly remarkable. The environment is safe, nurturing, and designed to cater to the needs of residents with memory impairments. Overall, we couldn't be happier with our choice. Brookdale has provided our family with peace of mind, knowing that our loved one is in the best possible hands. We highly recommend this community to anyone looking for compassionate and specialized memory care."

"My mother was a resident of Morningside Place for 4 ½ years. When I would visit, she would always be clean, comfortably dressed, happy and active, either walking the halls with a friend, enjoying the sun in the courtyard, playing a game or attending one of many planned events. The leadership is committed to engaging the families in facility events and activities and providing information on dementia-related educational opportunities. All of this helps us to better understand what is happening with our family member as dementia overtakes them and how best to engage with them in order to make our final years together as happy and loving as possible. The leadership also holds monthly zoom meetings with directors and family members to help keep families up-to-date on changes in personnel and on upcoming events and allow us time to ask questions and get to know the people who are caring for our loved ones. Morningside personnel deserve an A++ from our family for providing Mom with a wonderful, happy place to live out her last years."

"My mother has moved into Brookdale Leawood State Line. It's nicely furnished and it's homey, but yet it's been updated and clean. I like all the staff very much. So far, everybody's been friendly and helpful."

"I went to The Madison Senior Living. It's very open. I didn't see a lot of diversity in the community, but the staff was nice. The patients that were walking around were pretty friendly. The dining area was nice. It was open and bright with a lot of windows, but I didn't try the food. The staff who gave the tour was nice. He answered all my questions and answered things that I didn't think I needed answers to."

"We are on the waiting list for Mission Chateau. We chose them because the people we met and talked to, including the person who showed us around and gave us the tour was spectacular, and that was a very important reason. And the second major reason was the financial model that was used, there was no large buy-in upfront. The person who toured us was friendly, professional, thorough, and a good listener. The place had the things we were looking for. I can't do much physically anymore except swim, and it does have a swimming facility. There are all sorts of activities, clubs, and gatherings that we can choose to get involved in if we want to."

"Although my mother was there for just a short time, I can’t say enough positive things about this assisted living facility. They are warm and welcoming. The staff is truly there to meet the needs of the clients. My mother truly enjoyed visiting with all the staff that would come in to see her. I just wish that she could’ve stayed longer!"

"My wife will be moving into The Village at Mission. We chose it, because of the facility's capabilities, the people, the overall appearance, and the feeling that it's well managed. The people we met were all very friendly and helpful. Their dining area was very spacious. They have everything that she will need such as a physical therapist to work with her."

"After researching and visiting several assisted living/memory care facilities, we moved my mother with Alzheimer's to Trustwell Living Mission Springs nearly 9 months ago. We have been very pleased. As Mom's condition has changed, it has been easy to work with both executive and direct care staff to make changes in her care plan. We visit frequently and have never arrived to find anything concerning. The apartment is very adequate with enough space and privacy. The common areas are kept very clean and orderly. Though there have been some staff transitions, there are always some activities during the day. Mom is very comfortable with her care staff, and they relate to her very well. The community is not enormous, and this has been a benefit. The surroundings are open and floor plan simple. Even though Mom is often confused, she has been able to navigate her surroundings without too much difficulty. Mostly, we just appreciate the staff. They are ever present and communication is very good."

"My Mom spent her last 10 months at Carroll Park. While the facility is older with smaller double rooms, the staff makes it special. The staff does not sit around looking at their cell phones (a significant problem I had seen at other facilities), and were very responsive and compassionate to the residents. The family ownership and dedicated staff created a more comfortable and homelike feeling. They reached out and made my Mom feel loved and special. It was as good of a stay as could be hoped for under not good circumstances."
