Crestwood Health Care Center sits in Florissant, MO, and holds up to 150 residents, which is a pretty large number when you think about how many people that means are getting help there, and the place mainly serves older adults but also cares for folks aged 18 and up who have mental illness, so you get a real mix. People staying at Crestwood get many kinds of care, like nursing home services, IV therapy, post-surgical care, psychiatric care, tube feeding, wound care, bariatric care, and even more, and there's a strong focus on medical help for those with high needs, even if they're dealing with complicated situations or mental illness, so it's not just for the elderly but for those who really need steady, skilled support. The building's rooms come with showers and are wheelchair accessible, which helps those with mobility challenges, and the staff set up things to make it feel homelike even if people need a lot of medical help. The medical team can include doctors, psychiatrists, podiatrists, dentists, dieticians, optometrists, ophthalmologists, pharmacy consultants, and even more specialized workers, and the team covers general health as well as specifics, like eye care or nutrition, bringing in these specialists when needed rather than having folks go elsewhere.
Crestwood has planned activities, like games and art-making, to keep people active and social, and it also provides therapy like occupational, physical, speech, cognitive, and restorative, which helps residents improve or maintain their health whenever possible. There are care programs that fit the needs of each person and the home gives choices where it can, so folks feel a little more in control even if their health is complicated. The place accepts Medicare, Medicaid, private insurance, hospice, and private pay, which makes it easier for families to figure out how to cover costs, and the Home is approved for both Medicare A and B, giving access to rehabilitation and skilled care.
A rehab unit supports both long-term and short-term care needs for folks with complex or skilled medical conditions, and Crestwood also has a Medicare unit aimed at those with mental illness or challenging diagnoses, so specialized support is available. Amenities include in-room showers, transportation, laundry, pharmacy, therapeutic diets, social services, scheduled activities, and a barber or beauty shop, and common spaces are set up for comfort and a bit of normal life. Nursing care is available all day and night, and the staff looks after things like medication, injections, incontinence care, case management, and even hospice, which means support continues even if needs change over time. Crestwood uses a care finder tool to help residents and families find what they need. The home is run by Reliant Care Management Company, LLC, and Monrey Griffin serves as administrator, with staff focused on honest and respectful communication. Crestwood accepts people without discrimination, no matter race, age, , color, religion, disability, or where they're from, which makes for a mix of people, and everyone's treated fairly, relying on straightforward policies and trained staff rather than fancy promises.
