Big Bend Woods Health and Rehabilitation sits over in Valley Park, Missouri, where you'll find it at 110 Highland Ave, and it's been around since about 2015 as a for-profit LLC, serving the community as a Skilled Nursing Facility, and folks in need of different levels of care, including assisted living, memory care for those with Alzheimer's and dementia, rehab therapy, skilled nursing, or hospice care can find it all here under one roof, which is good since people have so many different needs as they get older and want to stay as comfortable as possible. There are studio and semi-private rooms to choose from, and for anyone needing extra help after a hospital stay or because of illness or injury, the place offers short-term rehabilitation and long-term care, working out special plans with each resident and their family. The staff are there day and night, even on holidays, and know how to help with everything from health evaluations to medication management, physical, occupational, and speech therapy, or just a little extra support with dressing, getting around, and taking medicine, plus you'll find their team is known for being friendly and able to serve residents who speak different languages.
This center pays close attention to how residents eat and live, letting friends and family join meals in the dining room and supporting community involvement with pet visits, a beauty salon for some pampering, an activity department, a game room, and hands-on crafts groups, while the outdoor courtyards and a climate-controlled atrium give some space for sitting out or walking around safely. There's a lot for residents to do, with social, educational, and entertainment activities designed so folks can keep learning and having fun, hold onto their dignity, and stay part of a thriving community while staff handle the big and small tasks that come up every day. You'll see things like chef-prepared dining, complimentary cable TV, Wi-Fi, and phones in the rooms, regular laundry services, and home care options as well, so families can find the setup that fits them best, and while Medicare gives it a 1-star nursing home rating, people in the city have reported an average rating of 8.1 out of 10, making it the third highest rated around these parts, which says something about how neighbors see their work. The team at Big Bend Woods focuses on giving each resident the best chance at recovery, comfort, and happiness with tailored support and the hope that everyone stays as healthy as they can for as long as they're there. The place does run at full capacity from time to time, and sometimes won't be accepting new residents, so it's always wise to check in before making plans, though the center stays known for its care, attention, and strong reputation for serving older adults in the area for years now.
