As the director of Visiting Angels, we were hired to come in and care for a resident that lived here. The staff was always so helpful and welcoming when our caregiver was on property. It was wonderful to go in and see staff that cared for their residents so well!

The Welstone at Mission Crossing is a true community in every sense of the word. While seniors are living here independently, they are also surrounded by other seniors, and staff that truly care and look out for each other. It is such a fun and loving community and I am proud to be a part of it.

I have the pleasure of being able to partner with Welstone and the phenomenal team. The priority that they place on quality of life, top notch service for their residence, and service excellence is unmatched. Gina, Kelly, and Pete continue to raise the bar for excellence and we are excited to continue to partner with such a premier senior community.

My husband and I have lived at The Welstone for almost five years. It has provided everything we have needed with a smile! The staff is friendly and caring. Our building is very attractive and immaculately clean. There is an abundance of activities or if we want privacy, all we have to do is enter our apartment and close the door. I have worked with the therapists from Lakeview Village and they are outstanding. Our fitness coach Anasha has classes going all day to help us stay fit. We have monthly Town Hall meetings and all residents can make their voices heard. Jeff Brown, our director, is "one of us" always ready to listen to our concerns or visit with us.

The Welstone meets and exceeds my needs for a large variety of activities from which to choose (or not), welcoming new friends, pet friendly for my dogs, and medical transportation with reservation. The food is well prepared and the chef listens to feedback at monthly meetings, implementing them when he can! The weekly Bible study is the best I have ever attended! Plus, due to the number of "Marys" in the building, I have a new nick-name of "Two Dog Mary"! Fun place to live!

Whelstone is exactly the type of living needs I wanted. The staff is unbelievable. EVERY one of them is not only professional, but caring to make every resident know they are special. The food is lutstanding, there are numerous, varied activities, and the workout facility is world class. Every day is more positive as I learn more people and what Whelstone offers.

I've worked at the Welstone for a bit over three years now, and love it so much I'm in the process of moving my mother into her own apartment this month! If you're looking for a place that feels like home, you can stop looking, you've found it- comfortable, great people, terrific food, and lots of activities both in the complex and out on the town. Give us a chance, you'll be glad you did!

Friendly, welcoming staff and residents! My dad moved in a few months ago and is thriving. He loves the food and has has been participating as much or as little as he wants. Peers have encouraged him to join activities. Lots of choices! He loves the gym--available anytime and with personalized weight settings. His granddaughter likes to play shuffleboard with him when she visits. The salon is a busy hub with Beth helping residents look their best while welcoming residents and families who stop by to connect. Housekeeping keeps it looking great and is reliable. Regardless of where my dad is or what he is doing, people seem to know him by name. I am so grateful.

The Welstone is a beautiful building. I have been participating in the Mix and Mingle Happy Hours for about a year and the residents love it. Staff is super friendly and always smiling. When you walk in the door you can feel the positive energy. Residents are always present and seem to be enjoying themselves. Lunch items are displayed as you walk into the dining room so you can have a visual of the featured items for the day. They offer many social activities for everyone to enjoy. Residents are very friendly and ready to meet their newest neighbor. Thanks to everyone who makes this community so great to work with.

I have had the pleasure of working with seniors in the Kansas City area for nearly 10 years. My first impression of The Welstone was how involved everyone - residents and team members alike - was. It truly felt like a community where people enjoyed being. I'm happy to say after joining in, that feeling was genuine. There are so many great friendships here and everyone is warm to the new person. Residents are the first to jump in to welcome and help, and legitimately want to assist people with settling in. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend The Welstone as a place to call home.

The Welstone is a wonderful place to live and call home. How can a place look elegant yet feel so homey? Probably because the Director Jeff, his staff and the residents are so friendly and fun. Also the food tastes as good as it smells!You’ll also appreciate how clean it is.Jeff always goes above and beyond to make the day to day and holiday experience just a little more fun and encourages everyone to join in. See for yourself!

I had the pleasure of working at The Welstone. The staff I worked with cared deeply for the residents, and worked tirelessly to ensure their comfort and satisfaction. From the excellent food served in the dining hall, to the fun outings and events held onsite, it was a pleasure being a part of this independent living residence. I would recommend The Welstone to any seniors seeking a vibrant, engaged community. I am hopeful that my parents will someday make the decision to live at The Welstone. I know they would be happy they made the move!

The community here is so warm and inviting when you walk in!! The staff greets you and makes you feel welcome. Many times when I have visited other retirement communities I feel like I am interrupting. It’s nice to feel welcomed. The residents are social, and they too make you feel like a part of the community.

Mr. Brown, who runs the facility, is not only an amazing person, but genuinely cares about everyone and everything. He is always available with an open door, guidance, knowledge of senior living, and truly loves what he does. It is palpable. If you are researching a place to live or a place to have loved ones live, search no longer. This is IT!!

TOP NOTCH Senior Living facility!!I am an Independent Medicare Advisor in Kansas City and have been helping seniors since 2010 with their Medicare. I work directly with over a dozen Senior Living centers in the Metro area by putting on Medicare workshops / presentations and helping their residents select the Medicare plan that fits them the best based on their individual needs.In my 12 years of experience in the Senior community I can say without a doubt that Jeff Brown and his team at The WellStone at Mission Crossing has the most well rounded and companionate staff in the metro when it comes to senior living I have found to date. The fact they are a smaller community gives them the ability to actually KNOW and CARE for each resident on an individual level! They truly are Passionate about ALL of their residents and that Passion is very evident in all interactions I have had with them over the years. I highly recommend them and their community to anyone who is seeking senior living for themselves or a family member.

There are two things that make the Welstone at Mission Crossing special. Both center around our residents.First and foremost is their energy and enthusiasm for life. This makes our community a fun place to live, with a great variety of activities to meet almost everyone's needs.But not to be overshadowed, is their sense of family and belonging. This makes the Welstone a welcoming place to live. A deep sense of caring about each other makes this not just a place to live, but a place to call home.

My experience at Wellstone for my mother has been outstanding. I would not have my mother who is 94 anywhere else! The staff is caring and understanding. Everyone cares about the residents. The residents are always friendly watch out for each other. Jeff who runs the facility loves what he does and it shows. His staff is wonderful. I just can not say enough about Wellstone. Actually 10 stars would be more appropriate!!

So accommodating and professional; thank you!

My Parents came for Christmas (2017) and they were too sick to go home. Initially, we rented an apartment at Welstone for a 6 month recovery and rehabilitation. But, they moved here permanently partially because their experience at Welstone has been so overwhelmingly positive. My Sister and I are so fortunate to live within a few miles of Welstone, so we can spend much more time with our parents in their remaining years. Welstone is perfect for their needs right now. Welstone provides for them what they no longer want or are able to provide for themselves. They don't have to cook anymore, and they enjoy most of the meal offerings, despite being fairly picky eaters. The care they received during the pandemic was outstanding, and I am eternally grateful to the staff, and the health care professionals at Interim (No longer the health care provider, but they have a new company to provide services if you need). The activities are a fabulous variety of never ending things to do, and they continued to adapt activities and keep residents informed and involved during the pandemic. The friends my parents have made while living at Welstone are wonderful and incredibly interesting. My Mother is fairly house bound, but when she emerges, any resident who sees her asks about her and engages her in conversation. I think my father's favorite part of the day is having coffee with his buddies. Living at Welstone has quite literally saved their lives, and enhanced their lifestyle. I don't think they would have considered living in a senior living apartment prior to their health crisis and our insistence. They were happy in a home in a remote part of NM, without a mortgage and plenty of acreage. Leaving their friends and colleagues of over 20 years once seemed unthinkable, but they tell me frequently that they could not have planned their living arrangement better if they had tried. Sometimes fate steps in and guides you to the right place. I am so very glad we found Welstone during their health crisis. I highly recommend Welstone, because of the people who work and live there.

The staff here is very nice and the building is modern, well-kept and nicely landscaped. Rates are reasonable and competitive for the area. It’s in a great “walkable” area, but unfortunately, it’s also a highly congested area. Lots of activities on the calendar for residents too.
