PositiveAll 5's - I'm impressed with how much staff must attend to in short windows and make it all work for the residence...my loved one was a real stress test on the system! Administration was always available and receptive and responsive...it's a hard job!!

PositiveOverall I was glad there was a place for [name removed] to spend her last year. Homestead of Lenexa was quite clean and the staff were quite friendly. There was one nurse who I noted a retaliatory behavior from; she put a type of underwear on [name removed] that kept all her feces in and it was full all over her abdomen when I came to visit. I changed her. I was told not to. This nurse was new and I suspect that she wouldn't have gotten by very long with the regular staff who cared about the roomers. The food was q…

PositiveThe staff is always pleasant and they will do their best to be helpful. The food is my mom's big complaint.

The staff are very responsive when I come to them with concerns or questions. And the facility always looks lovely.

CriticalI've been here about 6 months. It seemed ok at first then the wheels seemed to come off. At one point I didn't get my medications for 3 days. Believe me, I for sure need ALL of my meds every day. No apology at all. If you are sick and need to stay in your room, good luck getting fed. There isn't an RN on duty ever. An LPN is the head nurse and the rest might be CNA's. No transportation at all. You are on your own. The oven hasn't worked in 5 months. The ice machine broke and it took 2 weeks to get fixed. Super shor…
