Silvercrest at Deercreek

My loved one is currently a resident at Silvercrest at Deercreek and overall the experience has been good. The staff has been very helpful. The food seems to be okay, but my mom complains about everything. I do wish that the housekeeping was done more often than every other week. Overall, the facility is serving its purpose. I guess I would recommend this facility to others.

This community has a great feel to it. The apartment is perfect for us. The community is kept very clean with sufficient staff to help with cleaning. There is weekly linens being washed and placed back on the bed. There is a washer and dryer in the apartment. There is therapy on site for the residents to take advantage of. The weakest thing about our experience has been the food. This saddens me that they have had a hard time finding people qualified to cook. The food is the number one thing for the independent living residents, and I'm hopeful this will improve. There is happy hour twice a week, along with other activities. There have been several activities director that has made a great time for us here.

We think it is a pretty good value for the cost, and we would absolutely recommend this community to others. It is small enough to really get to know people and you wont get lost, and everyone there seems to really know each other and care.

The staff is friendly, helpful, and wonderful. They even have a good attitude. We are currently eating in our rooms and in plastic due to the pandemic. If we were going to the dining room the food would be more appealing for us.

Try calling after 7:00pm and see if anyone answers the phone. Ask for help because you are concerned about a resident. Did you get a message that says the mailbox is full? What if you needed emergency help? Sorry mailbox is full

Mom lived here for a year. Too expensive for outdated facility. Food was bland and institutional plus small portions. Residents are assigned tables & never get to meet new people. Office staff & reception desk not overly friendly. Activities not too creative. Home office does not provide the funds to be very upscale. Building not designed well as deceased are wheeled out lobby & through front entryway which depresses other residents. Windows need replacement in apartments, wind howls through terribly. Covid rules often made no sense & did not help with elderly depression.

As a resident who has had lived at Silvercrest at Deer Creek during the past eight months, I could not be happier with where I live and the people I am with daily. The people who work a Silvercrest at Deer Creek I consider to be somewhere in the realm of family. I feel so cared for. They are attentive to my needs and I am just incredulous at how responsive they are to my requests. When I have asked for help with something, it has been done more quickly than I would ever have hoped for. Silvercrest at Deer Creek clearly values cultivating and maintaining relationships and my experience has taught me that responding to residents must be the organization's top priority. I really enjoy the food and the kitchen staff has been very responsive to requests and comments I’ve made. They and other departments have invited feedback and acted upon it since I’ve lived here. Relationships with fellow residents have become friendships that in other circumstances would take a long time to evolve. I am learning to play bridge, thanks to the generosity of some of my new friends. My favorite organized activities are drama club and gong to see live theater, “brain games” (trivia), and coffee chats or social hour in the pub. My neighbor is a talented artist and has begun teaching painting classes. I love living at the SDC location. Fantastic shopping and restaurants are only blocks away. I love living at Silvercrest at Deer Creek. I could not have chosen a place more perfect for me!

We went on a tour here and liked what we saw. She was great at answering all of our questions. It was nice and clean. The apartments were small but spacious. They had lots of daily activities. The set up was good too. We are just looking around right now.

This community is very convenient for me and this was a huge factor. The staff have been here for many years. They know the residents name and all about them. My mom is catholic and they have a priest here so she loved that. The food varies some days it is good and other days not so much. But it is a smaller very homey feeling it is like a family there. [Removed] went out of her way to call my mom and comfort her transitioning. The housekeeping are always cleaning. This was a good fit for mom I would recommend them to my friends and Mom has even recommended to her friend.

Silvercrest has been a generally good experience for my mother. We chose this community because it is a smaller facility, which fits my mother’s needs better than a larger community, the price is the least expensive of the other communities here in town, and the proximity. Silvercrest is very close to my home and my work. The facility is just like all the other communities I have seen though, it isn’t particularly unique or special in any way, and they seem to have trouble serving high quality food. I also see a problem with having to move her to another community eventually because there’s “no room at the inn” so to speak. Silvercrest doesn’t encompass all levels of care, and I can see myself needing to move her as her needs increase. I think this is a misleading aspect of the industry that they make you think that they have everything set up perfectly, but it isn’t quite that way. Overall though, Silvercrest has been adequate for our needs now.

My in laws is doing great since their move to this community. They are enjoying their time here, and we are comfortable with their move to this community. They have a great staff, and they are kind whenever we visit. Also they have been responsive to any concerns, or questions we may have. It is a beautiful community, and they do a good job with the cleanliness. There are nice meals provided, and good activities offered for the residents. This is a community I would highly recommend, it is working out well for my family.

On the tour we saw that there were things that were okay but not as much to do here. The apartments are more compact and not large enough for two people.

Independent apts nicest I have seen..only two meals..very nice facility

The staff were very helpful with getting mom transitioned into the community. She likes the food and they do offer some daily activities. She likes her apartment and the community is kept immaculate. The community does seem to have quite a few residents with memory issues so it is not always as active as she would like. I would recommend taking a look at this community to see if it would work for your loved one.

I thought this was a pretty good community when I visited. The people I met were nice and they do offer some nice amenities. This community was a little farther away than what I was looking for.

My daughter, and grandson toured this community for my father, and his needs. They were very impressed with their tour. This community has a very good reputation. My friends grandmother lives here, and she loves it. The location is very convenient. Unfortunately they had a three month waiting list.

I am a current resident at Silvercrest at Deer Creek and I want people to know how happy I am here. I have been at Silvercrest almost 3 yrs now, and I am so thankful every day to be able to call this my home. Even though Silvercrest at Deer Creek is one of the older Independent Living facilities in our area, it is so well maintained and has such beautiful grounds and large, comfortable apartments, that I would rather live here than in any of the new facilities that have gone up in this neighborhood. The staff quickly becomes your "family" and they always, always bend over backwards to assist in any way needed. Although the food is not restaurant quality, I am more than pleased with our choices, most items served, but am most happy that I don't have to cook anymore. The Dining Room staff are absolutely wonderful and so accommodating and they always make me feel special. I would like to recommend that anyone considering an IL or AL would be wise to stop by Silvercrest at Deer Creek in Overland Park--it will be worth your time.

This community was our second choice. The staff we met were nice and the community was clean. They offered a variety of activities. This community just seemed a little more controlled than what we were looking for.

What we like most about the Silvercrest is the size. It is small and has a friendly homelike feel to it. The place is always very clean and well maintained. During the holidays, they decorated it very nicely. So far, everything has been very good.

This is a great community for my mom. I feel good knowing that she is at a small community. The staff is very friendly and careing to her needs. They activites are wonderful and she enjoys participating. We are happy with the cleanliness. The food was appealing and a good variety. We highly recommend this community to other families for great care and value for a loved one.
