Severely disappointed

February 15, 2019

Our parent was rushed to the St. Luke's Hospital ER late one night (not by Sunrise but by a visiting relative) as she was too weak to stand or sit up. She nearly died due to dehydration and over-medication. She spent over a week in hospital critical care followed by weeks in rehab to recover and learn how to walk and function again. 24-hour personal nursing (which we had to pay for at about $500 every full day) was a necessity due to her being such a fall risk then. Sunrise nursing falsely told hospital there was a DNR in place when there was NOT. She was in such bad shape when she arrived that they didn't think she'd survive and the on-charge physician asked me if a DNR was definitely in place as Sunrise insisted. When I informed him this was NEVER the case, he became disturbed at being misinformed. There was also a large theft that occurred while she lived there which we reported to the police when the head nurse said she would attend to the matter, but did not. We moved our parent to a better facility and things have been so much better, I'm happy to say. I shudder when I think how close we came to losing her.

Sunrise of Leawood was good. They had a very good memory care director and were very eager to set up an individual care plan. They had the most phenomenal activities director of any place I went to. He was totally engaged with the residents. The room was very nice. It had a nice window view. If you're sitting in a wheelchair, you can see out. The director was good. The building itself was nice.

Do not place your loved one in this facility. My parent started out in Assisted Living and had to move to Memory Care. That is when things started to go wrong. They don't have enough care staff workers, and the ones that are there don't pay close enough attention to the residents. My parent has fallen several times in front of staff and they have all kinds of excuses to why and how it happened. There is not enough activities for the residents to do and hitting a balloon back and forth across the room is not an activity. There are quite a few residents that wander the halls aimlessly. The rooms are spacious, & the food is just ok. Most of the problems stemmed from no one keeping a watchful eye on my parent, and making sure they were clean and went to the bathroom on a regular basis. You can meet with them time after time to discuss concerns and issues, and it might be fine for a little while, but it doesn't take long for things to go wrong again. Do yourself a favor and look elsewhere, you will save yourself and loved one a lot of pain. I gave it two stars because the outer and inner appearances of the facility do look nice but don't let that fool you.
