Brentmoor Retirement Community sits in a high-rise building at Delmar and I-70 in mid-St. Louis County and offers senior living in a comfortable, home-like setting, with 72 spacious apartments that come in studio, one-bedroom, two-bedroom, and three-bedroom floor plans, so residents don't have long hallways to walk but do get plenty of closet space, their own kitchens, and private apartments to help keep things feeling safe and personal. Pets are allowed here, so people who have small animals can still bring them along, and there's a strict no-smoking policy in all indoor areas, both public and private, to help keep the air clean. Meals are provided for all residents, and the Executive Chef works hard to make sure folks get chef-prepared dishes, snacks, and fresh fruits and vegetables while everyone enjoys gourmet dining together or at happy hour in the evenings. The staff includes the Executive Director, Executive Chef, Resident Care Manager, Sales Director, Maintenance Director, Activities Coordinator, Business Office Manager, and a bunch of other fully trained, friendly staff members who are there to help around the clock, as they make sure everyone's needs are met with compassion and professionalism.
Brentmoor offers independent living, assisted living, care homes, respite care, skilled nursing, memory care for people living with Alzheimer's or dementia, home care, hospice care, rehabilitation services, and a continuing care retirement community model that lets folks move between care levels while staying on the same campus. Assisted living residents get support with personal care, medicine reminders, showering, companionship, and other daily tasks, with 24-hour personal assistance and a personal alert system for extra safety, and staff create individualized care plans so help matches each person's needs. Doctors are on call, and there's a focus on offering as much independence as possible, with staff encouraging residents to stay active and connected.
Residents have access to a big list of amenities, including beauty and barber services at the on-site beauty shop, regular exercise classes and wellness programs, a computer lab, a full library, indoor and outdoor common areas, and both scheduled and complimentary transportation to medical appointments, shopping, community trips, and local outings, with resident parking available, too. The activities calendar stays busy, offering things like social events, educational programs, evening happy hours, community trips, life enrichment activities, and even devotional services held offsite, so there's almost always something to do for those who want to take part, with both onsite and offsite options. Housekeeping and maintenance are part of the regular routine, keeping apartments tidy and safe, and weekly cleaning helps everyone feel settled and comfortable in their living space. The apartments and showers are wheelchair accessible to support mobility, and staff make sure residents feel heard and welcome by encouraging suggestions about daily life and activities.
Brentmoor Retirement Community supports residents in living healthy, active, purposeful lives by offering social opportunities, nutritious meals, transportation, healthcare support, and a range of care options, so residents can make new friends, stay connected, or enjoy peace and quiet as they prefer. There's a minimum age requirement, and staff can help explain things like how to pay for senior living, insurance, government benefits, or the option of selling a house, with resources that include glossaries, caregiver support, and even a documentary about planning the next stage of life. All these services, amenities, and programs are designed to help seniors keep their independence while knowing help is always close by, and while nothing in life is perfect, Brentmoor's staff do seem to care about keeping residents safe, comfortable, and involved.
