The building is set up for seniors who require extra care, including those who don't walk on their own, and is licensed as a Community-based Residential Facility with non-ambulatory care available. Residents can choose from different studio rooms, all furnished for comfort, and can bring pets, depending on the specific rules in place.

The Prairie Village South staff also arrange daily activities like movie nights, music or art programs, fitness classes, pet therapy, board games, and religious or social gatherings, trying to keep things lively. If someone needs a haircut, a traveling hairdresser comes by, and there's help with getting to doctor visits or running errands. Residents have access to transportation, emergency call systems, and 24-hour awake caregivers for emergencies or regular needs, and the rooms are wheelchair accessible.
If someone's struggling with memory problems like Alzheimer's, Prairie Village South has a secured memory care wing to keep them safe and comfortable, with activities planned to ease anxiety and help memory.
