Bristol Manor sits at 411 S Delaware St in Butler, Missouri, and offers a calm and homey setting with care for up to 12 residents, so people get to know each other and staff can pay attention to each person's needs, and even though it's small, there's space outside to walk a pet since they let cats and dogs live here too. The staff are always around to help, since there's supervision and support 24 hours a day for things like bathing, getting dressed, transfers, and taking medicine-including diabetic care and insulin administration-so folks get help when they need it but can do things on their own when they want. Meals are prepared three times a day with extra snacks, and residents can ask for special diets like no sugar or diabetic options, and if someone has trouble with incontinence, there's care for that as well.
Private rooms and private baths, some on the ground floor for easy access, come furnished or unfurnished, and there are emergency call systems and step-in showers to help keep people safe and comfortable, and the air conditioning, along with both indoor and outdoor sitting areas, give folks places to rest or visit with family or friends, or maybe just read a book with the cable TV or Wi-Fi on if that feels right. Housekeeping and laundry, including linens, are taken care of by staff, and for the folks who want to join in, there's a bunch of activities-happy hours, BBQs, birthday and holiday parties, music, movies, cards, and devotional services both at the community and elsewhere, plus residents can weigh in on what they eat and do day-to-day so things feel more familiar. There's even off-site devotional trips and the staff can arrange rides for doctor's appointments, though there might be a fee for transportation.
For medical needs, the staff handle medication management and coordinate other care, helping folks stay on track with their health, and the community is licensed by the Missouri Department of Health and Senior Services, providing skilled nursing, assisted living, memory care for folks with Alzheimer's or dementia, and even an Adult Day Watch program for those who need just daytime help. There's a few different suites and even studio apartments, all designed so people can make their space feel like home, and everything from advice and move-in planning to support for daily living and more is offered by trained and friendly staff, including an on-site administrator who lives in the building. Payment is flexible since they take cards like Visa, MasterCard, Discover, Diner's Club, or American Express, and folks who like quiet, accessible surroundings with a busy social calendar and chances for independence might find Bristol Manor fits what they're looking for in senior living.
