Family resources

Your apartment, three meals a day and snacks, utilities, Wi-Fi and cable, weekly housekeeping and linens, laundry, transportation, activities and caregivers around the clock. Personal care is priced by level after a free nursing assessment, in writing, before you sign.

Our nurse meets you at home or in the hospital, reviews your medications and doctor's notes, and talks with you and your family. The plan sets what help you get and what it costs, and we review it every 90 days or whenever needs change.

A licensed nurse is on site in each home on weekdays and on call nights and weekends. Caregivers and medication aides are awake in the building twenty-four hours a day.

Each home has a secured neighborhood of fourteen to eighteen suites around its own courtyard, with dementia-trained caregivers, smaller groups and a calmer, more structured day.

All three offer the same care, rates and training. Manhattan is largest and has the therapy pool, Junction City is closest to Fort Riley, and Council Grove is the smallest and quietest. Most families choose the one closest to whoever visits most.

Cats and small dogs are welcome in most assisted living apartments with a deposit, as long as the resident can care for them.

Yes, if you are driving safely. Parking is free. Most residents find the van goes everywhere they need.

Yes, in a furnished apartment for a week or longer when one is open. Respite is a good way to try us out.

Many changes are handled by updating the care plan or moving to memory care. If someone needs round-the-clock skilled nursing, we help the family plan the next step.

You get the nurse's direct line, care conferences every 90 days, a call whenever anything changes, and a monthly newsletter with photographs.
