SeniorCare Homes-Overland Park is a senior living facility in Overland Park, Kansas, offering assisted living, memory care, and long-term care services for elderly people who need help with daily tasks. There are several small, home-like houses such as Nantucket House, Newport House, Ted Hersey House, Vineyard House, Waveny Park House, and New Canaan House, each designed for up to eight residents with 1-bedroom or studio suites, so things feel comfortable and familiar rather than institutional. The homes are licensed by the state, regularly inspected, and include safety features like sprinkler systems, ADA-compliant design, and a custom motion monitoring system for residents with limited mobility. There's a strong focus on individualized care, with tailored care plans for people dealing with memory loss, dementia, Parkinson's, Alzheimer's, or other memory impairments, and two Care Specialists are present for extra help and personal attention, while a nurse is always available on call.
The staff helps with daily needs like dressing, bathing, toileting, getting in and out of bed, and medication management, as well as special diets including diabetes meal plans. The houses allow pets and have gardens, walking paths, a cafe, community living rooms, theater room, balconies, and spots for relaxing outside, so people can bring a bit of their old life with them. Housekeeping, laundry, and full maintenance keep the homes neat, and all utilities, cable TV, internet, and phone are available, which makes things convenient and helps everyone stay connected. There are daily activities, crafts, reading, singing, music, entertainment, exercise classes, and social events to help residents stay sharp and enjoy each day, with planned outings and family get-togethers every month. Transportation is provided for doctor visits and appointments, and services help people get where they need to go inside the building safely.
Meals are served three times a day in a dining room and prepared by professional chefs, with snacks available at all hours, and help is given at mealtime for those who need it. There's a focus on keeping medication use as low as possible and caregivers respond with patience to everyone's needs, even if someone is having a rough time or needs some special attention during mood swings. Memory care units use a specialized approach for people who need closer monitoring and extra support, with a secure, calming environment, and privacy is respected. Residents and families get help understanding the different care options like assisted living, memory care, and skilled nursing, along with information about billing, contracts, and funding options, though Medicare usually isn't accepted unless a site is certified.
