About Prairie Homestead Senior Living

from Oasis Senior Advisors

Prairie Homestead Senior Living in Wichita operates as a continuing care retirement community, giving residents the option to remain on one campus even as their support needs change. This structure is designed to reduce disruptive moves by delivering independent living, assisted living, and higher-level care within the same organization.

The community accepts short-term respite stays and is prepared to assist residents who need diabetes management, including monitoring and medication support. A facility-wide sprinkler system and an emergency call system are in place to back up staff response, providing additional safeguards for day-to-day living.

Apartment layouts vary, but selections may include wall-to-wall carpet, wheelchair-accessible showers, in-unit washers and dryers, and basic utilities such as cable TV. Some residences are pet friendly, offer fireplaces, or open directly to landscaped outdoor areas; others emphasize proximity to parking or the library and computer lounge. Not every unit contains every feature, so prospective residents should confirm specific availability during a tour.

Dining services provide three daily meals prepared on site and served in a communal setting, with staff accommodating routine preferences and specialized dietary instructions. Snacks and beverages are available between meals, and the culinary team works with clinical staff as needed to support nutrition plans tied to medical conditions.

Residents have access to an activity center that hosts arts and crafts sessions, group fitness and other health and wellness programs, and scheduled social outings to local attractions and events.

#1 in Wichita, KS

Residents and their families say:

This community is highly regarded for its close-knit, family-like atmosphere among residents and staff, with many reviews celebrating its sense of neighborhood and belonging. Residents enjoy a variety of amenities and activities, including well-maintained housing options, group activities, worship opportunities, a residents' council, an on-site library, health-focused outdoor paths, and a dining room that becomes a center of joy during meals. The value offered by this community is frequently highlighted, noting particularly the spaciousness and convenience of the living facilities, like twin homes with oversized garages, which are seen as a rare find in senior living. The community's commitment to value is appreciated, allowing residents to focus spending on what truly matters to them.

However, there are a few concerns mentioned, notably the financial pressures residents might feel, including being asked to contribute towards dining room furniture and staff bonuses, suggesting a potential area for improvement in management practices. Another point of dissatisfaction comes from perceived high turnover among the staff, which can impact the overall experience. Despite these criticisms, the community's strengths, such as its welcoming environment, variety of programs, and the provision of maintenance and lawn care, allowing residents a worry-free living experience, are underscored. The community maintains a reputation for being a gem within its locale, appreciated not just for its facilities but for fostering a supportive and friendly atmosphere, which seems to far outweigh the negative points for most residents and visitors.
