I went to Sunrise of Overland Park. They do assisted living, but they do not accept Medicaid, so it's all private pay. Being late on a Saturday evening, there wasn't much going on, but I did see the activity room and it was OK. The woman who gave me the tour was very friendly and very nice. I was a little put off by the receptionist when I went in because she called me by my first name. I do not appreciate that with people I have not invited to do that, especially young people who should not be calling their elders by their first name, but aside from that, it was OK. The rooms were nice, but really small. They were not much bigger than large walk-in closets, but they were OK.

My husband is a resident of Sunrise of Overland Park. We chose it because it was very homey, and it was more like home than most places. Everybody's so caring and friendly. We just felt comfortable there. Everybody's on a first name basis with all of us. They come in and check on him multiple times a day. I feel like his care was very, very good.
His room is very nice. The food is delicious, and he loves it. You can walk around the building, and there are gardens, benches, and areas with canopies. It is so lovely.
There are lots of activities, but he wasn't able to do them for a while. There are group activities, music, cards, bingo, and news. It is very nice.
It is expensive, but it's very good.

I saw the assisted living and memory care sides of Sunrise of Overland Park. It's bright, clean and friendly. The room was very nice. I spoke with several different staff members, and they were all accommodating and helpful. I didn't eat anything, but the dining area was clean, bright and welcoming. I didn't observe any activities while I was there. I saw the different gathering rooms, social rooms, a garden, and walking space outdoors.

We went to Sunrise of Overland Park. It was very well decorated and it looked nice, but they were very restrictive on the residents. Guests couldn't come in or out. I understand it's Covid, but that's everything we are afraid of. Also, the cost of medical care at Sunrise was very high. The other problem I had with Sunrise and I think it should be noted is they brought us in on a promotional deal and didn't tell us that it would expire after one year. Had we chosen Sunrise, we would've said, "OK, this fit my budget" and then in a year, it would've gone up by 50%. I was very unhappy about that. They kind of tricked us in with the promotional.
The staff is very caring and very focused on the residents having a good experience. It was just financially not for us, and it was too restrictive. My parents don't need that much parental care. They just need minimal care. The other thing is we didn't decide how much medical care they got, they assessed them and they decided how much they would have to charge us. Nothing going on. Everything was shut down for Covid. My parents didn't even get to see anything, no food, nothing. Guests were not allowed past the foyer. The atmosphere was very caring but very monitored.

Sunrise of Overland Park was nice, but a little old and outdated. The people there were older and a little bit more advanced in their health. The staff was nice. The rooms seemed okay. I just wasn't real impressed with the facility.

Sunrise of Overland Park was very nice, but it was a large community, so it didnt really feel very home-like. The staff members were great, personable, and very good. Among all the communities we have visited, we rank this one as the second. Most of the rooms were studios.

We got a tour of Sunrise Overland Park and made sure there was a room that was available. They were very nice. We actually gave them a $200 deposit, and they said that if we decided not to bring our mother there that they would return it within the day. We saw the room -- which was very nice -- and the people were very nice. It was a very nice, fairly new facility. The staff was friendly. They took us on a tour and were able to answer all our questions. They told us the cost, they had a few add-ons here and there, and it was probably about $1,000 more a month than where my mom is. We saw the dining area where they would eat and sort of a lounge where they would have get-togethers or social things, and where they would do crafts and different things. I would have put my mom in this facility. It is just that it would be a little more expensive. It didn’t have quite a homey feel because it is brand new.

Sunrise of Overland Park was warm and inviting, and the staff was engaged. I really liked it. They had some guys play a little bit of putt putt golf in the living room and there were some ladies playing some cards and somebody playing the piano, which was really nice and relaxing. They had a little cafe where you can go and have coffee or soda. I really liked the staff as well; they were friendly. The accommodations were nice.

Sunrise of Overland Park was a beautiful facility, and the staff was absolutely fantastic. My uncle was there for like four years, and it was wonderful. I know they used to play Bingo, and they had a pet dog that lived there, my uncle loved that. And the staff was so caring; they took such good care of my uncle.

The Sunrise of Overland Park was laid out a little nicer and a little more room for the money. They had walking trails and a little garden in the back if you wanted to do gardening. They had a lot more stuff to do inside, and the rooms were bigger. There was absolutely nothing I didn't like about them, and their menu was phenomenal. That's where I wanted to move my father. For the money, it was incredible.

Mom has been there for almost 5 years. There has been recent staff turnover and I hoped with this last round that things would improve, but that hasn't happened. The new management and staff talked a good story, but the actual care has not matched the rhetoric. I asked about inspection deficiencies and was told there were none, but I'm not sure how that happened. The nursing staff are neglectful and do not follow up on specific requests. Her doctor had to change "as needed" pain meds to twice daily because they did not monitor her pain correctly. They let the residents isolate in their rooms. Activities are poorly attended. The expense is relatively high. I had the opportunity to move her to a smaller room to save some money, but chose to move her to another facility instead because the care is so dismal. The outside, the hallways, and rooms look pretty good and upscale. But don't be fooled, the attention to detail and care given to the resident are both remarkably lacking. You can do better than this.

We were impressed with Sunrise. I don't have anything negative to say about it. They have what seemed to be a good staff. The facility was laid out very well. There were small apartments for accommodations. I would recommend this place, we were pretty much impressed with it.

Sunrise was amazing and it's like walking into somebody?s house. The staff was extremely warm, very welcoming, very professional and know the residents by name. The facilities are beautiful and are well maintained. They are up to date in terms of style but they're comfortable. The only thing was the rooms which were available at the time were small. It has on site medical care. They have an aide assigned to your loved one personally to get them acclimated to the facility and check in with them once a day. The director is very warm, personable, and easy to talk to. She had a lot of information and gave us answers that made us feel our grandmother would be taken care of the way we will take care of her. I wanted to move in.

We liked everything about Sunrise of Overland Park. The reason why we chose this facility for my father-in-law was because their price was right. They have individual dining rooms on each floor and they do have a menu that you can choose from everyday and they can also bring the meals to you. We loved everybody that we've seen there. It's a small community and the people there pretty much knew everybody. Since we come and go there, the staff knew us by name. They cater to the needs of Alzheimer's patients and we are very happy with that. I would definitely recommend this facility to others.

We visited this home looking for a place to move my Mother in Law. We had not decided if assisted living was necessary or if semi-independent living was sufficient. This home is very pretty, and in a high end neighborhood. However, it looks like a fancy nursing home. It is a red brick building with white porches and rockers out front. But there were no residents enjoying the outside. The home has underground parking. As it was not an issue for us, we did not inquire if it was for residents or employees. There was limited parking available for guests. The home was much more expensive than any others we toured. It had the usual amenities, library, hair salon etc. The library was a room with high book cases, and a couple of easy chairs. It was very cozy. The rooms reminded me of hospital rooms. There was no personality within, and the rooms seemed very clinical. The home was nice enough, just not what we were looking for. They were willing to help obtain long term care insurance if Mom had not already had a policy.
