Review for Solstice Senior Living at Lee's Summit
It worked for us for a time. But she needed more care so we moved her. If you're pretty self-sufficient, it's an OK place. For value - . I would've given a five but the food is a little lacking so I would say four because I had to supplement her food.

The food could be better. They tend to serve the same thing for days, like chicken. They overcooked the vegetables every time. There could be healthier varieties offered. There is a food meeting for RESIDENTS once a month that I can go to voice my opinion, so I plan on that the next meeting. At the concierge's desk, they don't really check on people entering the building through the front door. They don't have everyone sign in, so just anybody can walk through that front door, which makes me uneasy.

They've changed management since we first moved her in. Since then, I don't think it's as clean as it used to be. It seems to need some maintenance cleaning, like deep cleaning the carpets, etc. But the staff are all very friendly. Meals are convenient, but service is slow and the food is bland. But it's so easy for her. The weekly visits to the stores are easy for her to use as well. And the weekly nurse is very convenient as well.

I was referred by a friend and I found A Place for Mom to be unbelievably helpful. [name removed] was understanding and narrowed down senior living communities that offer the things our family needed. In the end, a construction issue delayed a move in and we needed to pivot; one quick email helped us take the next steps stress free. I am SO thankful for A Place for Mom, I don’t know where world be without [name removed].

My loved one is currently a resident at Solstice Senior Living at Lee's Summit and overall it has been a good experience. The housekeeping staff is wonderful and will do requests. There are different floor plans available to perfectly fit your furnishings.

This is the place for you or your loved ones if you like disorganized chaos, unprofessionalism, lies , and broken promises of upkeep, sanitation, and cleanliness. Hit or miss dining experience staffed by immature young adults who allow aggression and lack of empathy for their elders. Compassionless to the folks who pay them for an over priced understaffed brothel that is Condoned. The only time they will acknowledge you is if it is the first of month when rent is due. Signed by a former residents daughter and family!

Everyone tries the best to make residents happy, but there is always a few bad apples (residents), pushing the staffs buttons. Residents need to be more patient, because there are only so many of them.

Solstice met my mom's needs until her passing last February. The food is never good enough and there is only one elevator for the entire facility. Other than that, the apartment was spacious, clean, affordable with great people to assist. Traditions hospice and Aging in Place, which were agencies associated with Solstice, were invaluable in providing great care for my mom during her last weeks.

They have a shuttle for residents, but the window of availability is very small and my mom has never been able to use it. Tuesday and Thursday medical appointment times are 10:30-2:00. Wednesday times are 12:30-2:00. They only go within a 15 mile radius. They go to Walmart on Tuesdays at 10. Other than that, I would absolutely recommend Solstice Senior Living at Lee's Summit to others.

Beautiful facility. The staff needs a lot of work. They have been known not provide services to the residents. The Director of Aging has been known to use foul language to the residents and she does not make sure they get their services (including pills). All of the staff needs traning on how to work with the elderly. They need to have understanding that they can get confused, lonely, and bored. The house keeping staff does not cleanas well or as much as they are supposed to. I wish I could leave a better review but that would be lying. Please only send your loved one here if they are fully independent and just want to down size.

We decided on Solstice Senior Living at Lee's Summit because of the proximity to my house as well as the affordability. I liked that they have the aging in place process. They also have select rehabilitation so I can get her some professional rehab or physical therapy and it is right there on site. They have a very nice working active beauty salon in house as well. The one thing that is missing is they have one elevator for this big huge facility, so meal times are very crowded and it takes a while to get to and from. Overall we would recommend this facility to others looking.

I'm not really happy with it. I think you should look a little closer before deciding to move here. The food situation needs improvement. They don't serve good quality food. The apartment is just okay. The staff are good though.

Our family had an in person tour and it was a nice experience. They played a lot of activities and the bingo was going on over the speakers it was so loud it reminded us of being on a cruise ship. They do serve their meals on scheduled times which we decided would not work for our loved one - they only serve continental breakfast and not a full breakfast. Lunch is only served Saturday's and Sundays, and dinner is served between 4:00pm - 6:00 pm

I wouldn't recommend Solstice Senior Living at Lee's Summit, at least not right now. They are very slow to get things done. My mom had a bad experience. They didn't give her the emergency button for several days after moving in. Because of that she fell, was laying there for hours, and couldn't be reached. We couldn't get in because our fob didn't work, and neither could the fire department. While she was in the hospital from the fall, they apologized and they made sure to get us a working fob. For the first 5 days she was there, not one meal was delivered on time nor in the right way. I was staying with her during that time and I'd put the order in myself, but they still wouldn't get it to her on time. And if I had to leave, I couldn't trust that they would get her food to her. The quality of the food is fine. They seem to have activities posted, but the few times I went to check them out - there were hardly any participants, which isn't their fault. They've been redecorating massively and I know that's put some obstacles in the way for a couple weeks. Their communication is poor, I typically have to reach out to them first. I would just say overall - Solstice needs to make the place more secure, the residents should have their button and the security that the door will remain open during the day and closed at night. At one point, the door could be opened at night with a little force, but they've fixed the fob issue since then.

Make sure you check out every other option. Solstice is okay; but if your family needs any kind of help, and isn't totally independent - then Solstice may not be for them. For A Place for Mom: The lady who helped me with A Place for Mom was wonderful, and did a lot of following up with me and was very good. I'm definitely not dissatisfied with A Place for Mom.
