Parents are happy
Mom and dad are happy there. My only problem is that they have new management and need a new activity director. It would be nice if they would work on keeping employees happy.

I like the location. [name removed] and [name removed] are very nice. The apt is ok except for the refrigerator. It's way too small. What I don't like : There is no energy. I'm an active person. This place is bringing me down.

They don't seem to be able to keep a maintenance man. There was a new one every few weeks. The activity director is wonderful, friendly, enthusiastic, and creative. The building is a nice no frills place to live. The long halls and lack of windows made it a little dreary. It isn't set up too well for handicapped people. The apartments have the space you need if you have a wheelchair but half the rooms have tubs. The only zero entry curbs are at the front door.

We chose this facility because of the price as well as the very friendly management. They are very slow with any maintenance requests and somewhat unresponsive at times.

There is only one ramp and that's at the front door so it's challenging to people with walkers or wheelchairs because if they live elsewhere in the building, they have to figure out how to get there equipment over the curb everywhere else. They are slow repairing things sometimes. They only have elevators at each end of the buildings so anyone living somewhere in the middle has to walk a long way to the elevator unless they can take the stairs down or up. There is a. 30 pound limit on dogs. I will say that the apartments are pretty decent not a luxury hotel but they're decent.

We needed to get our parents out of their split entry home and we were excited to find Connect 55 Plus in Shawnee. The 2 bedroom apartment was a great step down from their house. The manager and activity director are very welcoming and easy to work with. They also work at giving residents ways to connect and have a community. Our parents are adjusting fairly well.

The facility is a great independent retirement option. There are a few issues at Shawnee facility: side security doors are not functioning and are kept open at all hours. It is a concern given increasing area criminal activities. When questioned about implementing security, replies assure the system will be fixed by “next month”. The problem predates years advanced of my becoming a renter per other renters.

The facility is not very clean. The common areas are not cleaned often or well. There are several items that have been broken since I moved in and are safety and health hazards. There are not handicap parking places by all exits nor are the curbs ramped for easy access except at front door. They seem to have trouble keeping a maintenance man. It is a nice facility and there are a good variety of activities.

This is independent living. So, there is no housekeeping. But the staff is excellent and very friendly and helpful. This specific location is within the county's best meals on wheels services group. Internet and cable television at no additional charge. Very nice grounds. Pet friendly and they have pet waste stations on the property.

I am currently a resident at Connect55 Plus Shawnee and things have been very good for me here so far. The cleanliness and friendliness are good. The staff, activities and value for cost are also good. The other residents and staff are friendly and the new manager is very good. I would recommend Connect55 Plus Shawnee to family and friends.

A Place for Mom has scored Connect55 Plus Shawnee 8.8 out of 10 using our proprietary review score.
We assign review scores to give a more reliable view into senior living communities and home care agencies. Our review scores prioritize reviews that are recent — the past 24 months — because we know families need current information when choosing senior care.
Those with many recent, positive reviews receive a high review score, while providers with few recent reviews — regardless of how positive — receive a lower review score. Communities with no recent reviews will not have a review score, even if older reviews are positive. The maximum A Place for Mom review score a community can receive is 10 points.
