Overview of Derby Assisted Living

Avita Senior Living at Derby (legal name Derby Assisted Living) is a 35-bed licensed assisted living facility located at 719 N Klein Circle in Derby, Kansas. Administered by Miranda Rowland and serving Sedgwick County, the community provides a personalized residential model focusing on independence and relationship-centered care for seniors aged 55 and older.

As a state-licensed assisted living facility (ALF), the community operates under a month-to-month, all-inclusive care model that covers meals, housekeeping, and daily wellness programs. The facility maintains a notably high occupancy rate of approximately 91%, reflecting consistent local demand for its 32 occupied beds. While state-licensed facilities do not receive federal CMS star ratings, current licensure filings through 2026 show that the community maintains a citations-per-inspection rate of zero for the majority of its operational history. Staffing and Clinical ProfileThe staffing model emphasizes 24-hour availability to assist residents with daily living tasks such as bathing, dressing, and mobility. Licensed care staff provides medication management and specialized diabetic care, including insulin administration and blood sugar testing. The community also coordinates on-site physical and occupational therapies to support functional recovery and maintain resident independence. Relationship building is a core priority, with staff encouraged to engage personally with residents during meals and daily activities to foster a nurturing, family-like environment.

The boutique-style community is situated on a quiet cul-de-sac and features a central courtyard with direct access for select residential units. Residents live in private studio or one-bedroom apartments equipped with kitchenettes, walk-in showers, and two on-site tornado safe rooms for enhanced safety. All-inclusive services cover three restaurant-style meals daily served in a communal dining room, as well as: Weekly housekeeping, personal laundry, and scheduled transportation for community outings and medical appointments are standard. Life enrichment is supported by a fireplace lounge, an on-site beauty and barber salon, and a robust social calendar including Bible study, exercise classes, and live musical entertainment. The community is pet-friendly and accommodates small pets to ensure residents feel completely at home.

Those seeking a smaller, highly rated residential community with a long-standing record of licensure compliance and stable leadership may find this environment appropriate. Prospective residents should contact the administrator directly to discuss current bed availability and schedule a tour to assess the 2026 quality performance and personalized care neighborhoods firsthand.
