If you need some basic help such as medication reminders, you can utilize a third-party home health care provider who already tends to a number of our residents.

★★★★★

“It is a whole new way of life. I get to eat every day with people. I do not have to cook, clean or do dishes. I can enjoy my hobbies, participate in activities, or just stay in my apartment and do whatever I want to do. Move in now while you can still enjoy it. Don’t wait until you have to, do it while you can still enjoy doing fun things with people.”

★★★★★

“After my husband passed, I waited a year and then realized I wanted to be closer to my children. What I appreciate most about Meadowlark Estates is the people – you have instant friends and there is always something to do. You are involved in the community, and the programs and current events. You have your cleaning done, wonderful meals and no cooking or dishes. There is a bus service and outings to interesting places around Lawrence, to Kansas City and Missouri. It is like living on a cruise ship that never leaves port.”
