10 Best Nursing Homes in Gower, MO

We have been very pleased with this facility and feel like we made a great decision in moving Mom into this facility! We have found every single staff member to be friendly, helpful, and truly caring! You never get the feeling of "that's not my job" from anyone there; even those in administrative positions are very interactive with the residents, sometimes even pitching in to help serve meals or clear tables. They do whatever is needed. There are many activities offered each month including trips outside the facility for those who choose to participate. These include exercise classes, music performances, Bingo, cards, monthly birthday parties, weekly manicures/pedicures, movies, shopping trips, lunches at nearby restaurants. Since we are close to KC, there were "watch parties" for the recent Super Bowl and celebration parade. My mother thinks the food is wonderful! There is always a daily special offered, but residents also have alternative choices if they do not want the special. Meals are served during an hour and a half "window" which gives residents some time flexibility. Fresh fruit and snacks are also always available in the front living room area! The only area I could possibly criticize would be housekeeping, and it really is not a bad problem. Mother's room is cleaned once/week which includes light dusting, vacuuming, and cleaning her bathroom, and emptying her trash. There have been a few times when her bathroom & trash needed to be addressed more than just once/week, but we have found that if we just set her trash outside her door, someone takes care of it! Our family has been very pleased with mother's care and we would definitely recommend Oak Pointe of Kearney! It is not a cheap place to live, but it is a place where residents receive attention and quality care.

We were looking for an Assisted Living facility that provided an adult day program so that the family could have a break at least once a week. We looked at a couple of the locations in our area and, at the time, Benton House of Tiffany Springs offered an adult day program. My mother participated in the program, and she loved the facility, staff and would socialize with the residents. With her doing so well with the program, the family felt she was ready for her independence, and she would no longer have to feel bad that she was depending on family to care for her. Benton House of Tiffany Springs took time to work with the family members with tours of the facility and to view the rooms available to pick from. They collaborated with my mother’s long-term care insurance and provided all the information for us. They made the transition easy for the family and my mother. My mother felt right at home and adjusted right away. There are options on the menu for the residents to pick from for the three meals of the day. The chefs are great cooks with great personalities. Her room is always clean. The staff treat her as family. Our family is so grateful to the staff and knows she is well taken care of. The management sends the family emails to inform them of all events and invites the family to attend. They notify us right away if there is a health concern with my mother. It is hard for families to have to make the decision to place a loved one in an assisted living facility, but our family highly recommends Benton House of Tiffany Springs. Our mother is doing great there, and she loves the place and loves the staff. All of her visitors, she tells them how nice everyone is and how much she loves her apartment.

The staff are always very nice and kind to the residents. [name removed] and [name removed] are wonderful people and my mom is happy there!
