Kelly House of Topeka operates as both an assisted living community and a licensed residential care home, enabling it to serve residents who need varying levels of daily support while staying in a homelike setting. Nursing oversight is available around the clock, and care plans are tailored following a comprehensive health assessment conducted on admission. The team coordinates closely with each resident’s physicians to monitor chronic conditions, administer prescribed medications, and arrange outside therapies or specialist visits as needed.
Beyond basic medical oversight, Kelly House of Topeka provides assistance with activities of daily living such as bathing, dressing, and mobility transfers. Trained caregivers perform routine wellness checks, monitor vital signs, and document changes for quick response to emerging concerns. Scheduled transportation to medical appointments is offered, and families receive regular updates regarding care or health changes. Emergency call systems in common areas and bedrooms ensure residents can alert staff at any hour.
Private and companion suites are available, each designed to support aging-in-place with step-in showers and safety grab bars. Some rooms include additional features such as individual climate controls, in-room kitchenettes, or direct patio access, but not all accommodations have all the features. Housekeeping and laundry services are provided on a recurring schedule, and maintenance requests are handled by onsite staff to minimize disruptions to daily routines.
Dining services emphasize nutrition that aligns with physician-recommended diets. Three meals per day are prepared by culinary staff, and menu options accommodate low-sodium, diabetic, and other common dietary needs. Snacks and beverages are accessible outside scheduled meal times, and caregivers remain available in the dining room to help residents who need assistance with feeding or portion control.
