"Prairie Hills is a great facility. My mother was there 6 years before she passed from Alzheimers. The staff was great then and it is still a great facility. I believe the staff genuinely cares about the residents. Would definitely recommend it to families."
Cindy B.
Relative of Resident
"My dad has been at Prairie Hills at Independence for quite a while now, and it has truly become his second family. He’s so grateful he’s never alone and so am I. The staff takes such personalized, thoughtful care of him, which gives this daughter a huge sense of relief when I can’t be there. They are my eyes and ears, communicate well, and treat him with dignity and kindness. Our family is incredibly thankful for the peace of mind they provide every day."
