About St Mary's Home

The facility holds License Number 507005378 and has served seniors since 2014, providing both assisted living and memory care services, including care for those living with Alzheimer's disease or other forms of dementia in a space designed to reduce confusion and wandering. The facility offers adult daycare and respite care for temporary needs, plus daily help like medication management, bathing, dressing, meal service, and transfers. Staff, described as kind and helpful, receives background checks and works under a staff-to-participant ratio that helps ensure attention and safety for every resident.
Families often mention the nutritious meals prepared by staff, with special diets like diabetic and allergy-sensitive options available, and all-day dining served in a comfortable dining room. Residents get access to furnished rooms, wheelchair-accessible baths and showers, Wi-Fi, phone, and regular housekeeping and laundry. Security remains a focus, with emergency alert systems, safety features, and 24-hour supervision in place. The community offers transportation and parking options, and supports seniors with mobility challenges. Activities, both social and emotional, keep people active, including movie nights, walking paths, community gardens, and group meals meant to support engagement and reduce feelings of isolation.
St Mary's Home and its El Rio Memory Care unit operate under Koelsch Senior Communities, a family-owned company with experience in elder care. The facility provides ongoing care plan assessments and updates, working with families to match residents' needs for both physical health and therapies. Services don't include Medicare unless certified by CMS, as per standard regulations for Residential Care Elderly facilities. Though amenities and services cover a wide range, from non-ambulatory and incontinence care to move-in help and support for daily living needs, staff are always willing to assist with each step. The community stands as a steady option for those seeking long-term care, memory care, or daily support in a smaller, attentive setting.
