Midwest Health

The care services were good. The food was good. We picked this community because, it was close to our home, and we liked the apperance of the facility. My loved one was here was respite care. They were very friendly. They had a turnover in management. I would recommend to other families, if your loved one isn't very active.

I think they really care about their residents. They're pretty good about communication with me, although I myself initiate communication with them often. The facility itself is very good.

It is a very nice facility in the memory care unit. However communication is not the best between staff and family and could use improvements.

We decided on Stonybrook because of the location and also they were able to get us right in very quickly and it was very efficient. I like that they have a temporary place she could stay while we set up her permanent apartment. It was already furnished so that was a big help. [name removed] the manager has been great. The day we brought her in she was so helpful and very patient and knew how to talk to her to help calm her down. She is excellent. The nurse has also been very helpful in talking with me whenever I call with questions. I would definitely recommend Stoneybrook.

The homes are more of a family style and are for full care for memory care. Some employees have been here several years and are the cream of the crop. Nowhere is anything perfect but this was our choice of facilities. The rules are constantly being changed and it’s hard to keep up with them. It’s a far cry from the old county home type facilities.

I wish at least one of my family had the code to front door. I have a wait to get in at times longer than I should. Employees who change beds should have a class when employed how to change and put fitted sheets on the bed. Food leaves a lot to be desired but I honestly believe they are trying to find better cooks. At one time food was paid to be "best" in area. I understand that is not the case for 5-6 years.

I think it's a very nice place. I always feel very welcomed there when I visit. Everyone is very friendly. The administrator is a very nice woman and has helped me out immensely. It's always very tidy. My friend, who is a very picky eater, says the food is pretty good.

They have a good director who was great at communicating with us and doing follow up. Unfortunately there were poor reviews on the community.

The director and staff are very good, however, the quality and the condition of the facility leaves something to be desired. They do have a pending remodel and it does need it, but its still a good facility in my opinion. Communication between the staff and me & my family has been very good. They always get in touch with me, and they usually contact me by phone call. Their memory care unit is all on one floor, and I do feel that Homestead is a safe and secure place for my loved one. The only complaint that anyone could have is on the state of the facility itself, but again they're addressing that. Overall I would recommend Homestead Estates of Wichita to others.

[Name Removed] provided a tour answering all questions very efficiently and thoroughly. I was very impressed with the cleanliness but more so with the "lockdown" security provided at the facility. The rooms are spacious, and a very nice view of the courtyard. So far extremely pleased.

I toured Homestead of Overland Park, and its décor needed updating. It was a small community, but I didn't mind the size. They didn't have an in-house rehab facility, which is something I would prefer. My dad has Parkinson's and trouble with his feet, and I didn't like the shower. He'd have to step up and into the shower and that was really the kicker for us. The bathroom was also small, he wouldn't have been able to fit his wheelchair in there. They had carpet in the rooms, and if you didn't want carpet they had linoleum instead. For the price you pay for these facilities; you should have options of laminate flooring, etc..

I toured Homestead of Olathe, and it wasn't a good fit ( location wise). The inside was also very dated; very 90's with the color mauve, lots of carpet, and a funny cleaning agent-like smell. The rooms weren't bad, but the bathrooms weren't very big. My loved one uses an electric wheelchair, and their hallways were kind of narrow so he wouldn't be able to get around easily. I was also a bit frustrated with Homestead because I set up a tour and they didn't have a room available, nor did they know when they'd have vacancy. Although they were nice, it kind of felt like they wasted my time.

I toured Vintage Park at Stanley and I was okay with the location. The only room they had available would have to be accessed through a flight of stairs. They did have elevator accesses, but my loved one would not be able to navigate stairs in the event of an emergency. We preferred a room on the bottom or first floor. Because of that, Vintage Park was not a good fit for us.

Our loved one really enjoys her little apartment, but sometimes when she has questions or needs assistance she can't really get the questions answered or assistance in a timely manner. She also says sometimes the food is a little bland.

it's really a great community, my mom likes it here. they're friendly and it's small, so it feels more like a home. you get to know all the residents. the facility itself is also very nice. the only thing that could use some improvement is the communication. it's good when I ask and they are very forthcoming; but I don't always know everything. maybe if my mom is doing fine they don't see a reason to contact me (and may not want to bother me), but I would appreciate more frequent updates without me having to ask. I'm also unsure if they've rehired a new activities director, they lost theirs a few weeks ago. so I'm unsure how many activities the residents are participating in.

My father moved in the summer of [date removed] before Covid locked everything down so we had a chance to get him settled in. During the pandemic when we were not able to visit, staff kept us up to date. Fortunately dad is still able to use his cell phone and reliably communicate what is going on. It was still reassuring to have a second set of eyes on him. I am POA and closest family but still 90 minutes away. I still have a full time job, 4 kids in town and grandchildren. I try to get back to Denison at least once a month to visit. Otherwise we keep in touch by phone and staff calls monthly to give me updates and ask if I have any concerns. Why didn't I give it 5 stars? The staff, cleanliness, meals, laundry and other ammenities make it a solid 4-stars. No amount of staff or money can make any facility 5-star. Home is the 5-star. When that is no longer feasable, this is the next best thing.

Reed Place provide a community where my family member has care, when needed, 24 hours a day. It’s a relief to have housekeeping, cleaning, and meal prep services.

The location of this community is very convenient for our family which we like and we would recommend Homestead of Owasso to other familes.

The guy who gave us the tour was extremely friendly. It just did not feel like the right fit for my loved one, it is a little run down. They do take Medicaid which is great, they were one of the only ones in the area that I could find who did.
