Designed for active, independent adults. Santa Marta, located across from St. Thomas Aquinas High School, is sponsored by the Archdiocese of Kansas City in Kansas. The community’s 45-acre campus provides adults age 62-plus Tuscan-inspired private homes located in an exclusive setting on the grounds of Santa Marta. Residents enjoy a full range of services and amenities, including a full healthcare

What does it look like when a senior living community is built around faith, friendship and purpose? Just ask Mary Frances Horton! 🤍

Since moving to Santa Marta, Mary Frances has found something she didn't expect: a place where her faith has grown deeper than ever before.

As one of about 12 resident Communion Ministers, she visits residents in Assisted Living, Memory Care, Skilled Nursing and Rehab on a weekly basis, offering prayer, presence, and a hand to hold.

Her story is one of service, community, and the kind of spiritual connection that only grows when you're surrounded by people who share your values.

Read her full story in our latest blog post and see why she and her husband give thanks every day for calling Santa Marta home.

Learn how Mary Frances Horton's faith deepened at Santa Marta through community life, spiritual service, and bringing Communion to residents who live in Health Care.

We had a great visit from University of Kansas Medical Center Driving and Mobility Services Clinic.

They shared helpful tips on driver safety while also recognizing how important independence is to our residents—something that really resonated with everyone who attended.

Even better, this was another resident-coordinated event focused on topics that matter most to our community.

We love seeing opportunities like this spark conversation and connection at Santa Marta. ❤️

But while our look is evolving, the heart of Santa Marta isn't going anywhere. Our Catholic-sponsored mission, our dedication to hospitality, our commitment to exceptional care, and our focus on community living with purpose all remain exactly the same.

There's a difference between everyday forgetfulness and signs that a loved one may need more support — and knowing that difference matters.

Weighing whether your loved one may need memory care isn't an easy question, but our latest blog post offers helpful signs to look for and questions you can ask to move forward with confidence.

We've all misplaced an item, forgotten the name of an acquaintance, or walked into a room and couldn't remember why we were there. That's often when a small moment of ...
