Pleasant Hills in Hutchinson, KS, offers three levels of residential care: Independent Living, Assisted Living, and Memory Care. Independent Living residents have access to on-site wellness checks, scheduled health screenings, and optional medication reminders, while maintaining control over their daily routines. Assisted Living adds 24-hour caregiver availability, licensed nurse oversight, and individualized care plans that cover medication management, help with activities of daily living, and coordination with outside medical providers. For residents with Alzheimer’s disease or other forms of dementia, the secured Memory Care neighborhood provides structured programming, behavior monitoring, and staff trained specifically in cognitive support, all under the direction of clinical leadership.
Beyond the basic levels of care, the community supports resident health through regular physical therapy sessions, visiting rehabilitation services, and coordination for physician or specialist visits arranged on-site. Emergency call systems link residents directly to staff at any hour. Transportation for medical appointments is scheduled by the concierge team, and electronic health records help staff track each resident’s status and adjust care plans quickly. The community also offers fall-prevention programs, chronic disease management education, and routine vitals monitoring.
Apartments range from studio suites to one- and two-bedroom layouts. They may include features such as kitchenettes, walk-in showers with grab bars, individual climate controls, and cable or Wi-Fi connections, but not every unit offers every feature. Weekly housekeeping, linen service, and maintenance are provided, and laundry options include either in-unit machines or a community laundry room depending on the apartment selected. Common indoor areas include lounges, a library, and activity rooms, while secured outdoor courtyards are available for supervised Memory Care use.
The dining program serves three meals daily with rotating menus developed by dietitians to meet general nutrition guidelines as well as specific physician-ordered diets, including low-sodium, diabetic, and mechanical-soft options. Residents choose between restaurant-style seating in the main dining room or room service when medically advised. Snacks and hydration stations are accessible throughout the day, and family members can reserve private dining space for special occasions. Menu feedback is collected regularly to accommodate personal preferences.
