Quality Care Living in Shawnee, KS, is a dedicated memory care community equipped to support residents at every stage of cognitive decline, including advanced dementia. The care team is prepared to handle wandering behaviors at any hour, elopement risks, combative or other behavioral issues, nighttime wakefulness, and complex medical needs such as wound care, oxygen therapy, special diets, and all levels of diabetes management—oral medications, injections, and sliding-scale insulin. Residents under 60 are accepted when their care profile fits the community’s licensure, and psychiatric conditions can also be accommodated.

Clinical coverage includes an RN or LPN on staff and a nurse physically on site 24/7, with another nurse available on call. All exterior doors are alarmed for resident safety. Caregivers provide full assistance with bathing, dressing, eating, and toileting. Transfer capabilities range from simple standby support and walker guidance to two-person assists, full Hoyer-lift transfers, and bed-bound care, ensuring continuity of service as resident needs change.

Private and companion suites are available with furniture options, cable access, housekeeping, and scheduled laundry services, although specific features vary by unit. Families can review the room layouts during a tour to confirm which amenities are included in the accommodation being considered.

Meals follow a set menu that can be modified for clinical or personal preferences. The kitchen routinely prepares gluten-free, vegetarian, mechanical-chop, purée, and thickened-liquid selections, and staff coordinate closely with nursing for physician-ordered diet adjustments.

The building is fully wheelchair accessible, and residents may bring pets if the animal meets community guidelines. It’s a good idea to check with the community during your visit to see if your pet will be allowed.
