The Parkway Senior Living

What The Parkway Senior Living does

The Parkway Senior Living is a privately held, single-location senior living community in Blue Springs, Missouri, operated and managed by Arrow Senior Living. The community delivers a full continuum of care across four residential products: Senior Villas (one- and two-bedroom independent homes with attached garages and full kitchens, starting at $4,440/month), Independent Living (maintenance-free apartments starting at $3,055/month for a studio), Assisted Living (personalized support for activities of daily living starting at $5,465/month for a studio), and Memory Care (a secure Alzheimer's and dementia neighborhood starting at $6,895/month for a private studio). Residents receive housing, dining at The Mills Restaurant (open 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. with 50+ always-available menu options), housekeeping, transportation, daily events and entertainment, and access to on-site amenities including a fitness center, salon, 24-hour bistro, and pet-friendly accommodations.

The community monetizes through monthly recurring residential fees, a one-time community/entrance fee, point-based care add-ons (which assign points by specific support needs such as dressing or medication management rather than fixed care levels), and optional services such as salon visits and outings. Technology layers include the Arrow App resident portal (billing, document access, service requests) and Inspiren AUGi, an AI-powered fall detection system using non-identifiable geometry sensors to monitor resident movement and alert staff to changes or potential falls. Ancillary services are delivered through partnerships with EmpowerMe Wellness (on-site physical, occupational, and speech therapy), EverSpring Pharmacy (strip-pack medication management), and referral channels including A Place for Mom.

The business runs on a direct-to-consumer sales motion with tours scheduled through the website, phone (816-228-8866), or walk-ins including evenings and weekends, and a multi-channel marketing presence anchored by the company website, the Thoughtful Connections Memory Care Podcast distributed across major platforms, and active Facebook engagement. Quality credentials include the Joint Commission Gold Seal of National Quality Approval, Great Place to Work certification, U.S. News & World Report 2025 and 2026 Best Senior Living awards across independent living, assisted living, memory care, and continuing care retirement community categories, and certified dementia practitioners on the memory care team. The community employs 101-250 staff across functions including Executive Director (interim), Senior Living Director, Wellness Director, Memory Care Director, Culinary Director, Plant Operations Director, Business Office Director, and Resident Services Director.
