Celebration Villa of Hearthstone in Topeka, KS

Being in the health care profession we wanted a clean place, with no fowl smells, a place where our loved one felt safe with good meals and activities, and Atria is that place. The people there, the staff and residents are incredibly nice we have never seen anything like it before. They will go out of there way to help you and make you feel comfortable. Our loved one has now found his purpose and his new beginning. The activities are starting to open back up, but beforehand they were delivering their 3 meals a day and snacks to their rooms. Every single room at the Atria has an outdoor area you can go out and walk on, its truly beautiful.
