Homestead Assisted Living & Memory Care of Augusta sits on Fairway Drive in Augusta, Kansas, and offers seniors a safe and comfortable place to live, especially if they need daily help or memory care, you see, the place is all on one floor, so no one has to worry about stairs or elevators, and every part of it is wheelchair-accessible. Residents can choose from private apartments in the assisted living section with big closets, kitchenettes, plenty of storage, and warm finishes, or memory care studio apartments with safety features and cozy touches, and, you know, folks can bring their own things to make the place feel like theirs. The community has indoor and outdoor spaces where people can visit, read, and relax, including a library, a fireside living room, outdoor patios with rocking chairs, and a courtyard with a water fountain, along with a sunlit dining room, a therapy room, and an on-site salon where residents can get hair care.
The team there's made up of certified caregivers and on-call nurses who help with medication, bathing, getting dressed, and moving around, and they have plans for each person, which they update as care needs change, with special support in place if someone's living with Alzheimer's or dementia. Staff provide help around the clock, and the building's got emergency call systems everywhere so assistance is always close by. Meals are home-cooked and served three times a day, and housekeeping, laundry, interior and exterior maintenance are taken care of as well. There are also devotional services, trips, field outings, and organized activities meant to give residents a chance to socialize, learn, and stay busy, because they think keeping the mind and body active is important and helps everyone feel more at home. Homestead is a part of the Midwest Health Family of Communities, it's family-operated, and it's been around for about 50 years, so they've learned a thing or two about supporting seniors with respect and care, no matter whether they need independent living, assisted living, memory care, day care services, non-medical home care, skilled nursing, Medicare-certified home health care, or hospice, and they try to make every day safe, comfortable, and peaceful for the folks who live there.
