Prairie House sits on a 40-acre campus near Ascension St. John Broken Arrow and has a modern, multi-story building with landscaped grounds and a covered entryway, and it brings together Assisted Living, Memory Care, Independent Living, Skilled Nursing, and Senior Services so residents get care that fits what they need, and everywhere you look you see places for seniors to feel comfortable, including roomy studios and suites with kitchenettes and private baths, and common areas like a dining room with restaurant-style seating and light fixtures, bistro, lounge, patio, and movie theater with soft armchairs, and there are community rooms, an arts and crafts studio, a library, and a gym with adaptive exercise equipment for group classes like yoga and tai chi along with free weights, as well as an on-site salon offering haircuts and manicures, a spa, outdoor putting green, and gardens with walking paths and flower beds for fresh air and bird-watching or light gardening, and all the apartments come with cable, WiFi, and options for pets, even in Memory Care suites, which often feature large windows, cozy living areas, and small kitchenettes with granite counters.
The nursing staff, including licensed nurses, LVNs, Med-Techs, and caregivers, stay on-site around the clock for medical help, medication management-including reminders, injections, pharmacy services, and managing needs like diabetes on a sliding scale-and there's support with all the daily basics like dressing, bathing, meals, and hygiene, and the place offers personal care services, special therapies like physical or occupational therapy, hospice support, and visiting health care, along with monitored fire safety features and secure Memory Care neighborhoods designed to help with Alzheimer's or dementia by giving memory support in a homelike setting with routines and less confusion or wandering.
Residents, even those needing more support, can take daily exercise classes and join in wellness programs, yoga, stretching, walking clubs, and special programs led by trained activity leaders, and there's a full monthly calendar that's filled with outings to local museums, shopping, community events, nature preserves, music and cultural events, group games, horticultural activities, educational classes, family and community support groups, plus a theater for movies and special events, and for folks with a spiritual side, religious services take place on-site.
Prairie House serves food in a Gold Leaf Dining Experience with meals planned by dietitians and Gold Leaf Chefs, always keeping in mind special diets, allergies, or texture needs, and residents can eat in the main dining hall, pick from a café menu, order tray service to their room if necessary, or join in for guest meals, and kitchenettes in the apartments let people make light snacks for themselves if they'd like, too.
Housekeeping comes by each week, linen changes keep rooms fresh, laundry rooms sit on every floor, and staff take care of linens, so chores don't fall on the residents, and there's general and scheduled transportation for shopping, activities, doctor appointments, and excursions, as well as guest parking and overnight options for visitors.
Prairie House lets pets join their owners, and everything from rent to services can be paid by check, card, or insurance, with all-inclusive and split rent and care fee options, and there's Veterans Affairs (VA) Aid Assistance support, too; every new resident gets a care plan tailored by a clinical team and personalized for their health, habits, and social preferences, and the staff follows the Best Friends™ Approach to Dementia Care for Memory Care, focusing on respect, empathy, and keeping up as much independence as possible.
The community has communal dining and room service, entertainment events, outdoor gardens and putting green, a fitness area, bistro, art room, and places for families to gather, and programs focus on wellness, life enrichment, social connections, and letting every resident keep doing what they enjoy, so the goal becomes helping seniors live safely and comfortably and enjoy a sense of purpose and connection while giving peace of mind for their families.
