Renaissance Senior Care-Helena Stone Meadow sits at 3680 Travertine Way in Helena, MT, and you'll see right away it's built to feel like a family home with a quiet, welcoming style and comfortable living spaces, and even when you go inside, there's a calm, home-like smell that makes things feel familiar. The place is licensed for 18 residents, which means it's smaller and people can get to know each other, and rooms come either private or semi-private, already furnished, with cable TV, telephone service, WiFi, and kitchenettes for those who need one, and you can expect housekeeping and linen services as a given, which helps folks not have to worry about chores. They do home-cooked meals every day with a menu prepared by a dietitian, and if someone's got a need for special meals, like for diabetes or allergies, they handle that, and there's always staff nearby, all hours, who help with things like bathing, dressing, moving around, and taking medicines.
You'll find activities most days, from community-sponsored events to movie nights or resident-run ideas, and they've got spaces like a library, walking paths, a barber and salon, and a garden where people can sit or walk. Emergency alert systems and 24-hour medical supervision are in place, giving family members and residents peace of mind. There are programs for both physical and emotional health, with activities aimed at keeping the mind engaged, along with memory care services for folks with Alzheimer's or dementia, in rooms set up to keep people safe without confusion or wandering.
People who stay temporarily for respite care get the same attention as long-term residents, so family caregivers can take a break if they need it. The staff handles laundry as well as cleaning and helps people keep their independence by giving as much or as little help as needed, always aiming to be respectful and friendly. Whether someone's needing a lot of help or just a little bit, the team and administrator Misty Kirsch work to keep things running smooth and safe, and with support for medication, incontinence, and activities of daily living, there's a real focus on making things easier for folks who live there, always mindful of dignity and comfort. The facility doesn't take Medicare unless it's certified as needed but is licensed with the State of Montana, so you know someone's keeping an eye on things. Renaissance Senior Care-Helena Stone Meadow aims to give older adults a stable, honest option for living with help, in a place that focuses on care, safety, and keeping life feeling as close to home as they can.
