A Place For Mom And Dad Like No Other
We understand that when you’re moving your mother or father to assisted living, it’s a very emotional time. That’s why our team of professionals want to offer you peace of mind. We’re here to provide assistance with all daily activities. Care services are customized to fit each individual. While one resident may need medication assistance, another may need bathing help. This is a not a one-plan fits all. While all residents receive basic amenities, all other services are determined by an assessment from nursing staff. When you come to The Piper to visit your mom or dad, you’re not longer a caregiver; you’re just family.
Assisted Living Benefits
Leave the burden of home ownership behind. We’ll take care of the house maintenance, the lawn care and shoveling the snow. Housekeeping and cooking are provided by staff. Now there is time for socialization and fun. Weekly activities include exercise class, games, music, happy hour, movies, art classes, groups outings, shopping trips, church and bible study, and so much more. Residents can be as busy as they care to be. Or they can find solace in their private apartment to rest or read a book. The Piper is truly resident driven.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is assisted living?
This service is characterized by a distinct combination of individualized care, familiar neighborhood surroundings and professional expertise. Residents enjoy a private apartment within each unique household at The Piper, and are assured of levels of care that address their specific needs. All meals, housekeeping and utilities are included. Our licensed team assists with daily tasks as needed, and the many community amenities available in assisted living help residents more easily enjoy what matters most to them.
How do I know when someone needs assisted living?
If you have concerns about your loved one living at home, it may be time to consider assisted living. If there have been falls, confusion over taking medications, weight loss, poor hygiene, forgetfulness and repetitive questions, it may mean that being isolated at home is a serious health risk.
Remodeling the present home may help for a time, but it is not the cure for isolation and lack of social interaction. Trained professionals at The Piper provide assistance while helping preserve an individual’s dignity and independence.
What if my loved one needs more physical assistance?
The Piper is the only assisted living community in the Kansas City metro to offer Physician Directed Nursing. This household is staffed to provide a very high level of care. That means all levels of care can be provided and allows each resident and family to have the confidence that a move to a nursing home will never be necessary.
What is respite care*?
When family caregivers need time to attend to other obligations or simply to take a vacation, respite care at The Piper makes it possible. Loved ones can spend a few weeks in a lovely furnished apartment while receiving care, meals, activities and housekeeping. If you or a loved one needs a short-term transition from a rehabilitation center before returning home, respite care at The Piper may be the answer.
