Providence Homes Plus in Topeka offers assisted-living services designed for older adults who no longer wish to manage daily tasks entirely on their own. Staff members remain on site around the clock to lend support with bathing, dressing, toileting, mobility and medication administration. Routine vital-sign monitoring and coordination with each resident’s primary physician help detect changes in health early. The goal is to provide the right amount of help while encouraging residents to retain as much independence as possible.
Additional medical oversight includes scheduled wellness assessments, fall-risk evaluations and access to visiting rehabilitation therapists when prescribed. A licensed nurse is available each day to review care plans, handle wound care and respond to urgent health concerns. Residents are equipped with personal emergency call devices that connect directly to trained team members. Transportation to local medical appointments is arranged by the staff, and family members receive regular updates about their loved one’s condition to keep everyone on the same page.
Private and semi-private suites are available, along with a limited number of larger one-bedroom apartments for individuals who want more space. Units may feature walk-in showers with grab bars, individual climate controls, basic cable connections and in-room kitchenettes, though not all accommodations include every feature. Weekly housekeeping, laundry service and maintenance are provided so residents can focus on daily routines and social activities rather than chores.
Residents take their meals in a communal dining room where three chef-prepared dishes are served each day. Entrées rotate on a seasonal schedule, and the culinary team works with a dietitian to honor physician-ordered diets such as low-sodium, diabetic-friendly or mechanically softened menus. Staff are available to help with tray setup, cutting food and other dining-related assistance as needed. For those who prefer a quieter setting or are recovering from illness, meal delivery to the apartment can be arranged.
