The Rockwood

The Rockwood sits in the heart of Old Webster, just steps from shops, restaurants, coffee houses, and banks, so folks can take a walk right out their door, and with its Tudor-style architecture and a unique bed and breakfast feel, the place has a charm that stands out, while inside you'll find 29 apartment homes that blend classic style with modern comforts like full kitchens, washer and dryer in most units, and elevators and ramps to make getting around easy, but it doesn't stop there because they offer both heated underground parking and surface parking, and even have gardens outside so residents can relax or take their pets out since they're allowed. The building is three stories and has security protocols in place along with 24/7 staffing and an emergency response system to help keep everyone safe, plus the staff is fully trained and friendly, able to offer help whenever needed, and you'll find nurse on call services along with extra care through outside providers if residents want, since folks here can choose who helps them. Residents have access to a daily meal program with chef-prepared meals, and special dietary needs get attention, while meal tray service and guest meals are available too, and for those who like to stay busy there are wellness classes, bible study, current events discussions, card games, a theatre room, and outings into St. Louis, so no one has to feel left out or lonely, and with scheduled transportation for shopping or appointments, mobility isn't a hurdle. The Rockwood supports people who want to stay independent as long as possible, offering physical and occupational therapy, podiatry services, and even hospice when needed, all while making sure things like wheelchair accessible showers, complimentary transportation, and a reminder service are on hand, and housekeeping and maintenance, including bimonthly cleaning, are included to make life easier. Utilities are part of the deal except for phone, cable, and internet, and Wi-Fi's available for those who need it, plus you get both indoor and outdoor common spaces, fitness and wellness facilities, and a community atmosphere where neighbors get to know each other. Activities run throughout the week-educational, spiritual, recreational-and devotional services are arranged offsite if someone wants to attend, while personal in-home care can be set up through well-regarded partners, but the real draw is the small, close-knit feel so that staff can pay more attention to each person, whether it's through personalized concierge services, help with everyday chores, or organizing special events, and that together with the convenient and walkable location makes The Rockwood well-suited for those seeking a supportive, independent lifestyle in a friendly setting for adults age 62 and up.
