We are more familiar the independent side of the facility, but we thought Sedgwick Plaza was very inviting and the residents that were there that we saw were very willing to introduce themselves and welcome our loved in. We would recommend this community,

My Father lived at Sedgwick Plaza from mid-June, 2018 through mid-July, 2019 in independent living. His sister, who is now 98, also lives there. He loved everything about it, especially meal time when he got to spend time with friends he'd made and people he'd gotten to know and enjoy the excellent and wide variety of foods served at every meal. The residents, as well as the entire staff were friendly, caring and watchful of each other. When I visited him, someone, either another resident or a staff member, would tell me if he'd varied his routine at all, perhaps missing a meal or a change in sleep pattern. Everyone working there communicated these things, even the warm, caring lady who cleaned his room would stop me and tell if she'd seen something "different" in his behavior or demeanor. The couple of times we had to have something fixed in the room (light flickering and I purchased and asked them to put more non-skids on the shower floor), they fixed it the same day or within 24 hours. I visited him anywhere from 4 to 8 times a week, and looked forward to my visits because of the warm and welcoming staff, residents, and overall atmosphere. I also attended several events with him as they welcomed family visitors to every event. My Dad rarely left the facility, but his sister frequently took their scheduled trips to Dillons and/or Wal-Mart. He always remarked "If I can't be at home, I want to be here." He even loved the woman who cut his hair on Fridays, every four weeks. We were planning a move to the Assisted Living portion in November, but he passed away somewhat unexpectedly. I've toured other facilities, and nothing compared to the warmth and hospitableness of Sedgwick Plaza. I am so grateful we chose this place as his final place of residence the last 13 months of his life.

This place is so friendly and personal. It was hard for my parents to move to Wichita from out of state, leaving all their friends and all things familiar, but iI believe this was the right decision.
