The Plaza Health Services at Santa Marta is a senior living community in Olathe, Kansas, offering a full continuum of care including assisted living, memory support, Medicare-certified skilled nursing, short-term rehabilitation, and respite care. The community operates with no entrance fee and welcomes seniors from the broader Olathe area.

Assisted living services support residents who can live independently but need help with daily activities such as medication management, bathing, dressing, meal preparation, housekeeping, and transportation. The community maintains a 24/7 nurse on staff and emphasizes a high staff-to-resident ratio with long-tenured caregivers trained to help residents maintain their highest level of independence.

Memory care is tailored for individuals experiencing Alzheimer's disease or other forms of dementia, with specially trained staff working alongside residents and families to create structured, familiar environments. The memory care neighborhood is secure with 24-hour monitoring, emergency call systems in private suites, and specially designed indoor spaces to reduce confusion. Staff are trained in Landmarks for Living philosophies, PARO Pet Therapy, and MUSIC & MEMORY programs. A secure courtyard and gardens allow safe outdoor access.

Skilled nursing care is provided around-the-clock by licensed nurses and therapists for short-term rehabilitation and recovery or long-term chronic illness management. Physical, occupational, and speech therapy are personalized based on medical certification, with discharge planning that includes in-home services and equipment needs, plus the option to continue outpatient therapy at the community.

Respite care is available for stays ranging from a few days to a few weeks, usually less than a month.
