Mount Carmel at St Charles sits in a quiet area with a white picket fence, bright flowers, and an inviting patio where residents can enjoy fresh air and comfortable seats, and it offers a full range of senior care in a continuing care retirement community, so people can move between independent living, assisted living, memory care, and skilled nursing as their needs change over time. The community has many services and activities including a library, walking paths, a garden, and movie nights, and there's always something going on to help people stay active, with scheduled and community-sponsored programs, and the chapel's a peaceful place for Catholic Mass four times a week and Protestant and non-denominational services every week, with stained glass, wooden pews, and a crucifix. Rooms come with telephones and satellite television, and residents can choose from several floor plans, plus there's private dining rooms for family gatherings and a bright kitchen and dining area where meals are prepared by chefs and meal planners who focus on nutrition.
Staff help with bathing, dressing, transfers, medication management, and other daily needs, and there's a 24-hour call system and supervision.

The Arbors of Mount Carmel is the new assisted living building connected to the nursing center, providing 24-hour support for seniors who need it, and the Memory Care unit is designed to prevent confusion and wandering for people with dementia or Alzheimer's disease. They offer short term rehabilitation, respite care, outpatient therapies like Balance Master Therapy for stability, skilled nursing for seniors recovering from surgery, illness, or injury, and hospice care with trained providers for end-of-life support.
