Prairie Village Retirement Center is a very nice place. It's clean. It's very good information. The lady did a really good job. She took me around, and she showed me the rooms and what they were and what the deal was. She showed me the whole place. It's all on one level. It isn't upstairs or downstairs. I observed everything. I observed the dining room, the whole apartment, the kitchen, and what they offered. She also gave me a menu of what they serve. They were very thorough.

A great group of people to work and live with!

The staff was very helpful from the very first day I moved in. They have always asked if there was anything they could help me with. I would recommend Prairie Valley to my family and friends .

I thought that Prairie Village Retirement Center was pretty good. We got lunch there and it was good. That alone put it ahead of the other place we toured. The staff who gave the tour was very nice.

One thing to note is that there's no aging in place at Prairie Village. The food we had was hot. We didn't eat in the dining room, so they gave us to-go containers; we took them h…

Review of Prairie Village Retirement Center

Because my own home would be better, I didn't give 5 stars. The meals are good, the help is helpful and friendly and most everyone calls me by my first name. I'm forgetful and was unable to cook for myself so this is ideal for me and I have 2 family members living within 12 miles so I can get personal help if I need to. When I need assisted living its right here across the street. I also have a sister in assisted living.

Review of Prairie Village Retirement Center

I am going on my 7th year as a resident of Prairie Valley retirement. The apartments are comfortable, the food is great and [name removed], the entertainment director, does a wonderful job. I moved because of my wife. She was living in a small town in Nebraska and she wanted to enjoy community living they have at Prairie Village.
