Addington Place of Edwardsville, located at 7108 Marine Rd in Edwardsville, offers senior living focused on memory care, respite care, assisted living, and independent living. Staff provide help with daily tasks like bathing, dressing, and medication management, while keeping things friendly and respectful. There are private and shared suites, some with private bathrooms and kitchenettes, and all suites have cable or satellite TV and an emergency call system. The building provides round-the-clock staffing and 24-hour emergency maintenance, and there's skilled nursing available for those who need more medical support. Residents get access to physical therapy on-site, weekly housekeeping, and chauffeured transportation to local shops, restaurants, and events.
The grounds are laid out with walking paths, cozy courtyards with tables and chairs, and beautifully landscaped areas. Indoors, there's a library, a residents lounge, and activity rooms where people can join group activities like music, cooking, and gardening, or just relax and read. The community welcomes pets, so people can bring their animals with them. There's a barber and beauty salon on-site for haircuts and personal care, and the kitchens serve three hearty, family-style meals each day, with snacks between meals, made with fresh, locally sourced ingredients, which can be enjoyed in a dining room or in residents' own rooms if needed. Staff handle meal prep and can also help with medication.
Memory care at Addington Place focuses on residents with Alzheimer's disease and other forms of dementia, offering a secure and supervised environment to support safety, dignity, and comfort. Care plans are tailored to the needs and likes of each person, and the staff run programs that include cognitive exercises, creative activities, and events to help keep the mind and body active. There are also respite care options, which means people can stay for a short time, giving family caregivers a break, or seniors time to recover after illness or surgery.
The veterans community gathers here through the VFW Post 1299, offering support and camaraderie for service members and their families, and there are events planned by an event coordinator to help people connect. Residents have access to engaging social, recreational, and educational opportunities from the activity calendar, whether they want to join a group or spend time quietly with neighbors. Modern amenities, pet-friendly features, weekly cleaning, emergency call systems, and a supportive culture make it a place where people can feel at home. Staff members are always there, day and night, trained to help each resident or visitor in a gentle and understanding way. The whole community is laid out to lower stress, encourage friendships, slow the effects of memory loss, and help residents stay active and independent for as long as possible.
