“My mom has been living at Brookdale College Square for about 7 months now. Every staff member is kind and caring and patient with my mom. She is a challenging dementia patient and they take everything in stride. I feel she is very well- cared for there and would recommend this facility.”
“During recent notary appointment, I was greeted by pleasant staff who were very helpful in navigating me to the clients room. Very clean and positive environment.”
“I asked Adrianna in the assisted living community to help set up for my mom’s 99th birthday party. She brought tables and chairs to one of the community rooms and decorated the bulletin board for the celebration. Very helpful and always is so pleasant to my mom and other residents. Well done! Doug Firebaugh”

How families pay for independent living in Kansas
Most families in Kansas pay for assisted living, memory care and independent living out of their own savings, retirement income and often the proceeds from selling a home. Some have long-term care insurance policies that help cover part of the monthly cost, and it is worth reviewing a policy closely to understand what it will and will not pay for. Veterans and surviving spouses may qualify for VA Aid and Attendance, a benefit that can help offset the cost of care for those who meet the service and income requirements.
