►► Prairie Elder Homes: A comforting alternative to traditional institutional care. Passion and commitment is our homes’ foundations

Prairie Elder Homes are not corporation-owned or one of a hundred chains. Our homes are managed and run by Mandy and Michala, two women committed to continuous learning and seeking the most proven, best practices used to care for and engage people living with dementia. They hire skilled caregivers who share their passion for learning and attend training on a regular basis.

>> Prairie Elder Homes Offer Residential Memory Care Second to None

Prairie Elder Homes offer care that is second to none—a bold statement, but one you can believe. Here, we strive to fill our residents’ days with meaningful activities matched to their interests and functional level. Activities focus on creating positive feelings of accomplishment.

>> Residential Neighborhoods & only 6 to 8 residents for personal care

Our homes are located in residential neighborhoods, which help our residents adjust to a new setting because it’s much like their own homes. The setting is intimate with only six to eight residents, and we consider it their home. Through building trusting relationships with family, each of our residents is treated and cared for as an individual. We pay attention to and care about the details of your loved one’s history, preferred routines and lifestyle. At Prairie Elder Homes, their days and activities are too. One of the unique features you will find in a Prairie Elder Home is the >>Snoezelen Approach> Premium, personalized shouldn’t come only at a premium price

You want the best memory care for your loved one. And price shouldn’t be an obstacle. Everyone deserves dignity and loving care. That’s why Prairie Elder Homes are comparably priced to “institution” facilities. Our all-inclusive monthly fees include:

♦ Three home-cooked meals plus snacks always available
♦ Safe and secure environment
♦ 24-hour, on-site care
♦ Nurse oversight
♦ Assistance with activities of daily living such as bathing and personal care
♦ Weekly special therapies such as art therapy and music therapy
♦ Medication management and administration
♦ Incontinence care
♦ Personalized daily activities utilizing a Montessori strength based approach
♦ Community outings
♦ Family and community events

>> Not quite ready for full residential living? We have a small number of adult day care openings each weekday. Memory care is different here. Please contact us for a free and confidential consultation. 913.257.5425

PEC Friday Flash Part 2⚡️
We have been fortunate this week to have both MNU Nursing students & BV CAPS CNA students in the houses this week. 😍😍
The CAPS students dressed up today and treated the residents. It was a very busy, fun, candy & treat-filled day! You can see from all the big smiles how happy residents and students are to be able to share a connection and spend time together.

PEC Friday Flash Part 1⚡️
It’s been such a busy fun week we need a 2-part post this week! Monday residents helped make decorations for our Halloween party. 🎃 We enjoyed home made chili & cornbread, enjoyed social circle and therapeutic coloring, and helped fold laundry. 🧺 Anna entertained at the Lakehouse leading to sing-a-longs and dancing!🎶 The gang from ARCKC helped us close the garden, we helped Shae bake “brain cupcakes” for the party. They turned out really cute and delicious. And Woody, I mean our friend, Michael dropped by to help with watering.🌱 We enjoyed a World Series watch party⚾️, and went to the Grandparents Reading Program at Stillwell Elementary. We love interacting with the students there📚♥️. PEC Leadership team, or should I say,“ Leaderchick”Team made the rounds and passed out eggs filled with candy to all the houses. 🐓🪺 PEC Managers dressed as Witches and passed out a few spells throughout the day. 🦇🌕
Our Halloween party took place in the haunted barn. Such fun decorations and scary treats. 👻🎃🦇
Residents helped Shae put together goody bags for the BV CAPS students and the MNU nursing students, enjoyed pet visits, played games during family visits ♥️ , did puzzles, and enjoyed the beautiful weather and outside time this week.☀️😍

PEC Friday Flash⚡️
If you missed the annual PEC Barn Sale, you missed a good one! Lots of resident made crafts for sale, c***r & donuts, and zen music. It was a pretty great event! The fun continued all week with spider making, building activities and live music with Mike🎸. We enjoyed lots of outdoor time visiting the animals, walking around the farm, and visiting the other houses.☀️We made “dirt & worms” dessert cups with Shae🐛, enjoyed live music on the patio at west🎶, and relaxed with Delana on hand pan at the Lakehouse🥁.
We made spooky ghosts at all the houses. Everyone got involved! The turned out pretty scary👻! The guys from Autism Resource Center worked hard this week to help up close the garden. We love having them here to help🧡. We helped with chores around the houses, enjoyed Friends in Faith with Mark Harmon, and we started decorating for Halloween 🎃. Friday we had MNU nursing students at PEC. The students helped Shae and the residents make skulls to eat at the Friday happy hour. The students loved connecting and caring for the residents. The residents loved it too♥️😍.

PEC Friday Flash⚡️
We celebrated two birthdays this week; Miss Vicki at farm east and Mr. Ray at Lakehouse. Their special days were filled with cake, singing, and good wishes.🎂 We spent time outside enjoying the farm, feeding the animals, and doing farm chores.🐓🐖🐐🐑♥️
Shae had us create Fall/Halloween wreaths. We love how they turned out!🍁🎃Anna visited us and played her piano music for us. We love when she comes!🎹🎶Hank worked hard making several daily visits to all the houses throughout the week. We sure get a kick out of him!🐶♥️
We read, played lots of games, and cards. Lisa and Marlys visited Stillwell Elementary to
Dementia train the students. The students were very attentive, eager to learn, and can’t wait to meet the PEC residents when we start the Grand Friends Reading Program.📚
Shae did a very cool science experiment this week. Everyone loved it and it sparked lots of conversations. She also had us make the cutest and very delicious chocolate ghosts. 👩‍🍳👨‍🍳
We helped with chores around the houses, enjoyed activity stations, and listening to Delana play her hand pan. 🥁
We decorated the houses, arranged flowers, and enjoyed lots of walks.
Friday, we loved having the Blue Valley CAPS students connecting with the residents. Our residents look forward to having them here every week.

A dance. A smile. A moment of connection. A memory this daughter will carry with her forever.
This is what we mean when we say dementia care is about caring for the person, not just the disease. It’s about creating a place where people can thrive and families can return to being daughters, sons, and spouses- not just caregivers.
At Prairie Elder Care, these are the moments that remind us why we do what we do. Because there is still joy to be found, connections to be made, and special moments waiting to happen. ♥️
