Spring Arbor Senior Living

Our experience of Alto's memory care unit has been extremely positive for the most part, with a few exceptions. A huge draw of this facility was the care they put into making the memory care wing feel just as important as assisted living. One huge example is the rooftop garden and greenhouse, available only to memory care residents, while assisted living residents have some garden boxes outside on the ground floor. The rooftop location is so special, and our loved one was a big gardener throughout her life. So it's a great way to keep her mind and body engaged. The activities director, [name removed], has been nothing but supportive. She gives us thorough updates on the care of our loved one, and is always available with ideas to make her living space more accessible and successful for her. Huge shout-out to you, [name removed]! The space is beautiful with lovely views on one side of the building (try to get a view of the forest, not the parking lot!). The interior is well decorated and beautifully maintained. And they have spectacular events for both the memory care and assisted living wings, many of which encourage family and friends to attend, so we love showing up for those. For example, their holiday meals are so well done and make residents feel special on days it's easy to feel lonely. We have had some concerns about transparency from the nursing staff. Namely, we've had an ongoing issue with adult diapers we order depleting far faster than we can make sense of. We suspect the nursing staff is tapping into our supply when other residents run low, which we have been told is not allowed and that this pattern will be looked into. Sadly, we haven't seen resolution after 6+ months of reporting the same issue. We are having to hold them accountable, and that has broken some trust. This setback hasn't defined our experience; overall it's been a great fit with several incredible staff members going above and beyond. But other staff members take extra work to hold in line, and we shouldn't have to be doing that. I'd highly recommend them. And, like at any facility, you need to communicate with staff when you have concerns and follow up as needed.

The facilities appearance is beautiful. Great staff. Medication management has been a hassle. Meals are not always great.

Every one of those would be a 4+ or a 5. I am very satisfied and feel this is the best place for him. What we like the most about Rosewood Village is their very caring staff who seem to genuinely live/love their charges. Very helpful administration.

This is a special place. So grateful we found it. Advocacy for your family member is important for any facility. The activities and the people who work so hard make it extra wonderful! Admin can be hard to get responses from but everyone here works hard and are nice.

Mom is staying active, she says the food is good. The staff is professional and friendly. Someone did break her TV, they replaced it until I got her a new one, but I did not find out about it until I visited mom.

I like that its a locked unit and has small resident population of ~40 or residents. Its very convenient and has a very homey feel to it. The staff are super friendly, they take residents on outings and do fun activities, they have family celebrations for the holidays, and the food is good for a facility.

Night shift coverages need improved and meds given on time within that shift as well.

I liked that the weekday staff had low turnover. In general weekday staff was better/more helpful and knowledgeable than weekend staff.

Love everything about the facility except for the food. Great staff, beautiful apartments but my dad hates the food?? Conveyed concern in a meeting but nothing has changed. Many residents complain about the food

Bed alarms would have been helpful and might have prevented serious falls at night. We were told the room wouldn't have another occupant, but within a few days she had a roommate. Very small area. Not enough room to accommodate much personal belongings.

Facility is very nice with a beautiful view of the mountains. Staff are very friendly and helpful in all situations and willingly accommodate any requests as much as practicable. Lots of fun activities with the guests. My mom has a private room that is about the size of a medium bedroom with its own full bathroom. I would say size is appropriate for a memory care facility.

My brother was very comfortable in his room. He enjoyed getting out for his meals and socializing. He commented many times to me about the kind and caring staff.

Everyone is very friendly. The staff is great. The on boarding process could be improved. Yes, we would recommend the Alto Overland Park community to other families.

The facility overall was a good place. Clean, friendly, good to residents. The bad points are as follows - food so so, communication was not good at all. Returned calls were not consistent and I would have to call numerous times to get a response. Residents would go in and out of other resident’s rooms and take things, which we would then have to replace.

Mother is no longer at dominion. She has been moved to a place that can help her more now that she is immobile. Dominion was a wonderful place . I highly recommend the Crossville facility. Helpful to the family and the loved one.

Be sure they get the medications straight and not order meds that are not needed. Also the mail order pharmacy will price match vs. other sources. I'm told the food is very bland so my mom takes her own seasonings.

The quality of the nursing care (especially [name removed]) was top notch! She really cared about my husband!

My one complaint is that I was assured there were landline phones, and there were when I toured, but none when we moved in. That's very disappointing and would've been a deal breaker. But I do love the staff.

Respite care was good. Staff was friendly. Always smiled & spoke to my husband. It took time to get his meds correct since my husband takes a controlled substance. This created multiple phone calls. The meals were good & my husband participated & enjoyed Bingo & movie time. I would recommend Spring Arbor for 30 day respite.

Nice and genuinely seemed to care about daddy. So many came through to hug him during his transition and hospice care I would recommend Wickshire Creeks Crossing.
