Memory Care at Its Best

1. You & your loved one feel at home

We tuck our memory care homes into tranquil suburban neighborhoods much like yours. There are no corporate signs on our lawns — no vast dining halls or long, lonely corridors inside either.

Instead, your loved one enjoys a private bedroom and familiar, family-sized common areas: a living room, dining room, supervised kitchen, decks, gardens and walking paths. In other words, Care Haven homes are real homes.

2. A caring community surrounds them

Our team shares your highest priority: keeping your loved one safe, comfortable and happy. So, Mom enjoys activities tailored to her interests and abilities. And while we carefully monitor Dad’s health, we treat him as a person rather than a patient.

Everyone eats, plays and relaxes with the help of round-the-clock caregivers. Moreover, our full-time Activities Director keeps things interesting, guiding residents from gardening, baking and painting to music, movement and games, always making time for quiet one-on-one pursuits.

3. You, too, join the family

We form a special bond with residents’ families. It starts when we discuss the memory care you want for your loved one, then tour the home that offers the best fit. The bond strengthens as you help our nursing team shape the care plan. It broadens as, together, we prepare for a hassle-free move-in.

But that’s just the beginning — expect a warm welcome and a growing sense of connection whenever you stop in.

4. You both get lots of attention

Count on us to give your loved one all the attention they need. After all, we maintain the highest staffing levels in senior living — typically 1 certified aide per 4 residents. Caregivers have time not only to follow individualized care plans but also to lend a hand as the need arises.

After all, how long should Uncle Ned wait for a drink of water or help down the hall? Would he understand how to use a call button and keep it close at hand? Do you want him showering alone far from a nurse’s station?

Better staffing also allows us more time to connect with you, which our nursing staff considers one of its most important jobs.

5. Relax — your loved one is comfortable here

We’ve designed our memory care homes to protect residents while allowing them as much independence as possible. From choosing furnishings and establishing routines to training caregivers, we do all we can to keep everyone safe and – equally important – avoid confusion, anxiety or agitation.

In other words, we specialize in creating a comforting environment that keeps life pleasant and easy-going for people with Alzheimer’s, Parkinson’s and other forms of dementia.

6. You can settle in

Our six houses cater to different levels of cognitive and physical ability. To put it another way, we offer more help as your loved one needs it, so you don’t have to search for another home later.

With incredibly high staffing levels and an expert nursing team — together with the ability to accommodate hospital beds, lifts and other medical equipment — we can handle complex medical care. Thus, our residents typically stay in Care Haven’s homes from Alzheimer’s early through late stages.

7. Our memory care assisted living is easy to visit

Our homes are close to your neighborhood: clustered together in Overland Park and Leawood, a short drive from our Prairie Village office. Furthermore, each house is near a major street and less than five minutes from an interstate highway.

When you can’t visit in person, we can arrange either a voice or video call.

8. Kansas City’s memory care experts are on your team

We opened our first memory care assisted living home in 2005. Since then, Care Haven has brought better dementia care to hundreds of metro families.

Of course, we’ve learned a lot over nearly two decades (and are committed to learning more every day). Promising premier care means we pledge to continue meeting the highest standards in our field — because that’s what your loved one deserves.

9. You’ve got friends in high places

The same local family has always owned Care Haven Homes. Residents’ families particularly appreciate Neil and Lisa Barnett’s hands-on oversight of the business and our management team’s accessibility. They’re just a call, text or email away.

10. Our premier memory care is an extraordinary value

The flat pricing structure for our memory care assisted living limits extra charges. Without a la carte surprises, your expenses generally are lower — and always more predictable. (FYI: Ask about offsetting costs with long-term care insurance or Veterans Administration benefits.)
