I toured Silvercrest at Deer Creek Retirement Community. What I liked best was that they had a room large enough that my aunt and my mother could live together. I liked that the room cost was very reasonable. I liked that they had a point system for their care versus throwing everybody into a pool of level one, level two, level three. Those levels are very ambiguous, whereas, at Silvercrest, it was pretty explicit. So I appreciate that very much, and I also know how much I'm paying per point, another big benefit. The place or the building itself, the outside was very lovely. It seemed all clean. There was nice landscaping in the front where the apartments I looked at, there were large windows, and they were looking out to nature. My mom and my aunt are very much into having green space. They love to watch animals and birds. So that was a very big thing to me. In the hallways, I think they had done some painting, and there wasn't a lot of artwork or anything on the walls, it was very sporadic, and I asked the person who was showing us around, I said, "Why is there nothing on the walls? " And as soon as I said that and I came across a picture, and she told me the reason why, she said, " Our maintenance just hasn't gotten it back up." And then I said to her and I was serious, but I said it nicely. I said, " Well, you just let the maintenance know that this customer or this person who's walking through the building noticed, and you need to put things back up on the walls. " People don't want to look at a blank wall, I don't think". I only spoke with one person, but she has been very accommodating. I think the first time I talked to her was last Wednesday. Since then, I have talked to her at least six times. Any time I have called and left a message, she's called me right back. She has answered all my questions. She has explained things very thoroughly. It's just been very interactive.

We saw Silvercrest at Deer Creek. We checked if they participate in Medicaid if you have to go to assisted living and they didn't, but the place was awesome. We liked the rooms. The personnel were just outstanding. They were really working with us to get us in, and we came close, but we just couldn't make it. They were so helpful. They did everything under the sun to help us, but we wouldn't have had enough money left over for our personal things and our copay and such. They were very reasonable. We ate one meal there. The staff was very nice. The facility was excellent.

We were very pleased with Silvercrest at Deer Creek. The room was very nice, clean, neat, and well lit, and had a beautiful deck. The staff was very friendly and helpful. There were people around, but I did not really see them doing any activities. The dining area looked very nice and very lovely.

Silvercrest was nice. I liked the people running the place because they were very accommodating and wanted to really know about my interests. They showed us the three complexes and several different types of apartments with large rooms and full kitchenettes. The layout was very nice and appealing. They had few activities and transportation available.

I liked Silvercrest because it has a good location with easy access to a lot of things around that area. The staff is well trained and very professional. The apartments were just fine, but the price was too high.

I visited Silvercrest at Deer Creek. It had a really nice walking trail, patios, and offered activities to the residents.

Best care facility in Kansas City area. After experiencing other assisted living locations and actually was a resident of an assisted living facility for several months. I moved to Silvercrest at Deer Creek. It is a wonderful arrangement and spacious placed to make a home like my own private home. Dinning is very up scale and serving excellent with assistance if needed. All the staff are friendly and helpful. They go out of their way to help. If you need someone in a matter of minutes they are there to assist you. I can not say enough good things about Silvercrest. There are as many activities and outings anyone would want to participate in. I am very happy to be a resident here.

My mother has been at Silvercrest for a little over one year. She likes it there very much. She likes the other residents and has made a lot of friends. she says the staff is very courteous and friendly. The only thing keeping this from being a five star rating is the food. The quality of the meals is very hit and miss.

Silvercrest Deer Creek Senior was a very clean and very friendly place. As we walked around, people spoke to us, and I sat with a lady because we had lunch there before we took the tour, and the little lady sitting with us was just as friendly as she could be. The apartment that they showed us was really roomy. It had a full kitchen -- which really surprised me -- with a full-sized refrigerator, stove, a half-sized dishwasher, and a microwave; they had everything in there, and plus you got two meals a day. It had a big living room, an eating area, a nice big bedroom, a big bathroom, storage closets, and nice carpeting. It was a nice apartment. I wouldn't have had trouble living there with the exception that we would have to get rid of our dogs. It was clean, and the food was good.

I visited the assisted living part at Silvercrest Deer Creek, and while they call it assisted living, I think it was not enough of what I consider assisted living that we would consider moving there. I would not have been able to get the kind of assistance for my husband, and it was not just the level of assistance he needed. The apartments were very nice, and the sales person was friendly, but I wasn't really impressed with the director. They could improve on what their assisted program actually can do. I think it is a low level of assistance that they have and their care is based on points rather than like a level one, two, or three of care.
