SeniorCare Homes runs several small, state-licensed homes in Prairie Village, Overland Park, and throughout the Kansas City metro area, focusing on care for seniors with Alzheimer's, Parkinson's, memory loss, or dementia, where each home is limited to just eight residents and keeps a high staff-to-resident ratio so folks get plenty of one-on-one attention. The homes have private or shared bedrooms, a sunroom, backyard walking paths, gardens, and they're set up to feel like real homes-not like an institution-with spotless interiors, tidy yards, and staff who work to form genuine friendships and make every resident feel comfortable and seen. Each house, like Nantucket House, Newport House, Ted Hersey House, Vineyard House, Waveny Park House, and New Canaan House, has staff available around the clock, with nurses in the homes and on-call 24/7, handling things like medication management, bathing, dressing, grooming, laundry, and home-cooked meals and snacks available any time, day or night, because a lot of these residents need extra help throughout the day and sometimes at odd hours, too.
These are assisted living environments with extra focus on memory care, dementia, and Parkinson's, where staff are chosen for their skill and patience, trained to handle mood swings, confusion, and to encourage each person to join in the day's activities, games, or Bible study, and there's always programs like crafts, singing, piano, in-house entertainment like Netflix, Wii games, iPad games, plus exercise equipment, sporting gear, and even company outings in a dedicated vehicle for folks who can get out and about. Residents' safety comes first, so there are safety features and call-light phone systems, and the team keeps close watch and works with families to adjust care or medications as needed and to keep each person dry, clean, and comfortable, adding extra touches of warmth like holding a hand or just sitting for a chat, especially when someone is having a hard day.
SeniorCare Homes also acts as a resource for families needing to find the best spot for their loved ones, calling around, arranging tours, helping with paperwork like VA benefits or long-term care insurance, handling community price talks, organizing help with moving, transportation, meal delivery, even funeral planning, and offering different stay options-monthly, weekly, or daily-so families have flexibility if they only need respite or a short-term stay. They're able to help with complex care needs, like skilled nursing, stroke and geriatric rehab, and in-home help to let people stay put a bit longer before moving, and they have a curated network of care facilities throughout the area.
What really makes SeniorCare Homes stand out is the scale: these are real residential homes, never holding more than a handful of people, so everyone gets noticed and included, their small details remembered, and staff focus on making every day have a little joy-whether that's a favorite meal, music, or just a hello from a familiar face. Families are welcomed at monthly gatherings, and there's a big effort made to keep residents from feeling lonely or left out, always inviting them into daily life. The mission stays the same across all homes-to keep everyone safe, comfortable, and as engaged as possible, providing thoughtful, kind care in a setting that feels like home.
