My Place Too, Inc. is a retirement community in De Soto, Missouri, offering care for adults 55 and older who may need a bit of help with daily living. The facility provides several types of care, including assisted living, independent living, memory care, continuing care, nursing home care, respite care, home care, and care homes. The community's focus stays on helping people age in place and supporting as much independence as possible. Residents get help with personal tasks, medication management, incontinence care, diabetic care, and non-ambulatory care, and staff are present 24/7 for support and safety. My Place Too allows both male and female residents if they meet the minimum age, and they take Social Security benefits if residents qualify for Medicaid. Wheelchair accessible showers, beauty and barber services, pet-friendly rooms, onsite nurses, and a doctor on call help make daily life a bit easier. The facility offers three meals a day plus snacks and tries to keep diets healthy and balanced.
There's a strong activity calendar with group activities like games, movie nights, dances, exercise, holiday celebrations, talent shows, and even Special Olympics sports or day trips like dinners out, swimming, or visits to petting zoos. The activity coordinator arranges and takes residents to these events. Some devotional and religious activities take place onsite or offsite, with visiting chaplains or priests for those who want them. There's an outdoor patio with a gazebo, a walking trail, large activity areas, and plans for a fire pit with swing sets for enjoying time outside. Inside, there are common spaces like TV lounges, a game room, and a movie or theater space. Staff take care of housekeeping, laundry, dry cleaning, and transportation, so residents don't have to worry about these chores.
Healthcare services cover needs like physical, occupational, and speech therapy, and there are visits from a podiatrist and dentist. The assisted living services help with daily tasks like bathing or dressing but let residents do things on their own if they're able. My Place Too allows pets and has a no-smoking policy indoors. Floor plans and different payment options are available, and all bedrooms have cable TV included. The community charges one fee that covers most services, which keeps things simple. There's uncovered parking, easy transportation to appointments and activities, and homecare onsite for those who want extra support. Activities and social programs aim to help each resident feel connected, valued, and engaged. My Place Too works to create a homelike place where people know they're supported and can settle in safely and comfortably. The facility has state licensing from the Missouri Department of Health and Senior Services and is connected to its sister community, My Place Residential Care in Festus. The website has more information and details about programs, policies, and tours for those who are interested.
