12 Oaks Senior Living

The staff is very helpful, they are there whenever you need them. They make the residents do what they need to do as well like take their pills. They are very friendly. It is well kept and clean facility. It is smaller and has more of a home like setting rather than a nursing home feel. They offer a lot of nice activities. They have a travelling dentist that will come in. There is a hairdresser than comes in every Wednesday as well. The room sizes are a good size and each resident gets their own mail box. She really likes the food. She has been in the hospital a couple of times and they are great about calling us if something is unusual. We would recommend Strake Place to others, it has taken stress off the family.

My dad doesn't require much, still independent. He's very social. Slow to make friends with the tenants.. but from what we can tell, the staff has been kind.. We often hear about the activities he does. And I know he doesn't participate in everything. The apartment is cute. The food is just okay but not bad. Its not perfect by any means. But its great for the price.

The Springs was an okay place - nothing wrong with it. It just didn't fit our loved ones needs. They did not offer private rooms, only semi-private, which would not have worked for our loved one. Also it was very strictly regulated regarding coming/going, although I understand the necessity of that for some residents. I thought the staff were very cordial and very attentive. If it fits your needs, it seems like it would be a good place.

Our loved one complains that the meals are not good. The activities are good but could use more of a variety and the value for the money is to expensive

We have had a pretty easy time with them, they do a pretty good job of taking care of my Father. They just occasionally fail to notify me when outside services have issues.

We are no longer at this facility. It is overpriced. Good homey place. The staff is attentive, but there is not enough. There is unrest amongst the employees. There is not enough activities. Overall, the staff is good but they are understaffed and overworked.

The people here are very nice. Overall the staff is excellent. They want to do well and they want the people who live here to be happy. I think there are quite a few people here who really should be in assisted living. But everybody has been so nice to me. I like my apartment. It wasn't as tenant ready as I expected, but they've been good about answering service requests. With the food, I would just like more variety and better quality.

The Atrium at Overland Park gave us a great tour experience. The reason we did not choose this facility was because it has multiple levels and my loved one is scared of elevators - so that was going to be an issue. I also felt it just was not as homey as another facility that we were considering.

Very qualified Staff and Nurse care and Director are amazing ! These folks are very diligent in caring for their clients. Have observed these points mentioned now for 6 months and have no examples whereby Lucas Place has failed us at any time ! Certainly have and will continue to endorse and recommend Lucas Place to rank as a “front runner” at decision time !

West Fork Village was actually my first choice there for a while. I liked that they had cottages with backyards, that would have worked out really nice for my dog. The deposit fee was pretty large and also the appliances were pretty dated which is ultimately why I did not move in there.

I thought Mackenzie Place was a nice place. And we definitely considered them. The rooms were a little bit smaller, and the facility had a little bit of age on it. But the staff there was fantastic. They were very attentive and reached out several times. It was a great facility, just not the right fit for my loved one. It had more of a nursing home feel rather than assisted living due to age and location of the facility.

My husband likes it here and the community seems to be very clean. They are taking great care of him. His needs have increased since he got there but I am sure that it changes with the transition and the decline. I am very satisfied with the placement at this community I just have some questions about the cost of the community and I am waiting for the director to get back to me.

The people are super nice and I really enjoyed the bible studies. However when it came to the meals they are heavily loaded with carbs and always have the same vegetable's. They could also have better activities - they definitely are catered more towards an older crowd.

No place is perfect. Keep in mind that there is a learning curve for your loved one to learn the staff and for the staff to learn your loved one. It took my parents a little longer to get used to things and the staff longer to learn my parents due to their hearing impairment. But everyone is doing well now. For the most part I'm very happy. We love the facility. We love the dining area - they make it very fancy. We also love the private dining area that families can reserve. They have lot of activities. It's a definite plus that hey have a hearing impaired person on staff. And we like the accommodations that they have for hearing impairment. Our caregiver was able to come in and help train the staff to my parents' preferences and needs. I like that they have a private bathroom. They also allow us to have a camera in their apartment, which is nice. It's bright. There's lots of things going on. There is is staff there 24/7. And my mom feels free enough to leave my dad for a moment to go do activities in the building. Some areas for improvement would be internal and external communication, as well as consistency in answering call buttons. We've also had some Wi-Fi connectivity issues - it's very hit or miss.

It's everything I expected it to be. I pay one fee, which includes my rent and three meals a day. They have activities every day, and they can take you to the store and to your doctor appointments. I'm very satisfied with it at this point in my life, and there's not really anywhere else I would want to be. Overall I'm very happy with it.

It's a very nice place that is clean. The staff and the workers are very friendly. I feel comfortable with my Mother living there. They try to get my loved one involved in activities to the best they can considering she is blind. She does enjoy the exercise activities. All of the people that I have met including the residents are all so friendly and seem to be happy.

We like it here. It's a decent place. They have a little bit of everything. For what I'm paying though, I feel like they should have a designated room for smoking so you don't have to go outside to smoke.

It's a nice place. They got a new chef, although they didn't replace the sous chef. So the sides aren't the best, but my parents tell me the entrees are delicious. Housekeeping tends to knock on the metal doors with their keys, so see about getting a doorbell if you're loved one is hard of hearing. Also double check some things before you move in, but that would be true of any place. For the most part, the staff have been very good. My loved one has had some falls, and they were very quick to call the lift services to get her back up and make sure she was okay. They provide assistance to the dining room if needed. And housekeeping seems to be very nice.

I was concerned about Dad when Mom died five years ago. [name removed], who had been a home health nurse for my mom and was currently the administrator of Winkler Place, encouraged Dad to move into Winkler Place. After a year of prayer and seeking wise counsel, he did. It was truly an answered prayer. When [name removed] left, the cost increased and the services decreased. Covid hit us all hard. While I’m thankful that Covid mandates helped keep residents safe, the regulations were unnecessarily restrictive on my dad. The current administrator has implemented new practices (ie. gathering residents and discussing old times every week) which are beneficial to my dad and others. Sometimes there is a breakdown in communication and residents don’t know what’s going on or routine maintenance is slow in being addressed. The prepackaged food service is lacking. I do believe the staff truly cares about the residents and they have saved Dad’s life in more ways than one. I’m very grateful for that!

We had a great tour with The Wentworth. It is a very nice facility and everyone was friendly, it was just too large and I was worried my sister may get lost in the shuffle.
