Parkwood Meadows Senior Living

Parkwood Meadows Senior Living sits in Sainte Geneviève, MO, and offers a variety of care options, making it one of those places where someone can move in and stay as their needs change, which people sometimes call a continuing care retirement community, and here folks can get independent living, assisted living, memory care, and even skilled nursing services all on one campus, which really can make life simpler as people grow older and need more help. The staff here, known as care partners, stay on site day and night to help with meals, bathing, medication, and other daily tasks, and they offer specialized help for anyone living with Alzheimer's disease or other types of dementia, with memory care guided by the Best Friends™ Approach, in a secure part of the community with exterior memory care signage to help residents who may get confused. There's a strong focus on making sure everyone feels a sense of belonging, with homey 1- and 2-bedroom apartments, inviting common spaces, concrete patios for fresh air, and floor plans designed with seniors' needs in mind. Residents can bring pets, and the place's accessible features help people with limited mobility. Food matters here and meals get special planning to ensure good nutrition and taste, and staff members have earned praise for friendliness and patience, and the dining team's cooking has won recognition as well. The activity calendar fills up most days with events and social gatherings, so older adults who want to stay busy and engaged have options, and since this is an Americare community, the programs for therapy-physical, occupational, and speech-help folks who may be recovering from illness or surgery. The care options also include respite stays, so families can get a break, plus home health services if someone prefers care in their own apartment. The place stays clean and well-kept, and the team works to support the body, mind, and spirit of every resident, always aiming for people to feel at home, even as their needs change over time.
