Village Shalom will officially break ground on its strategic campus expansion on Monday, July 16. This is the organization’s first major construction since opening in 2000, and the $54 million project will nearly double the footprint of the south Overland Park Continuing Care Retirement Community.
“We are thrilled to have reached this milestone,” said Karen Glickstein, Chairman of the Village Shalom Board of Directors. “Village Shalom has a long-standing reputation for high quality care. The expansion will allow us to serve more residents, a true benefit to the community. The expanded facility will offer new services, additional amenities and an innovative approach to continuing-care—all areas in which the Board and Village Shalom staff take great pride.”
The expansion will include a state-of-the-art Household Model memory care community, a newly renovated rehabilitation center with expanded therapy space, and a new independent living community consisting of apartment homes and a Main Street with a number of new dining and service amenities. Village Shalom intends to open its new memory care community in the summer of 2019, and begin welcoming new residents to the independent living community in early 2020. Read the entire release.
