Villages of Jackson Creek Memory Care in Independence, MO
4.8

It is always a heartbreaking situation to have to place one's ailing parent in a memory care unit. Mom lived out her days with the staff singing to her and smiling with her. They encouraged her to be active and move her extremities. She was well fed and well taken care of. No nursing home is perfect and things sometimes get missed. But I am so glad I chose The Villages for my mother. She was happy and smiled a lot. She got a lot of attention from the great staff, the activities director and the social worker. Dementia is never ever fun and watching your parent decline is one of the worst things in life. My mothers dementia is the heartbreak of my life. The only saving grace was having her in a facility that was beautiful, that treated her well----where she could live out her days among those who could care for her better than I. She was close, I could always visit and she was well taken care of. What more can I ask for?

Vintage Park at Gardner
4.3

We really like the nursing staff and the manager, our only complaint we have about the place is over the weekends there are no regular staff members. The rooms are nice, and our loved ones thing the food is good.

Vintage Park at Atchison
5.0

Vintage Park at Atchison was a pleasant community. My wife stayed for a short time for respite care. We both enjoyed the variety of food that they served. They offered many activities and my wife had a great time participating. The staff took good care of her and were very easy to communicate with. Vintage Park gets my recommendation!
