Euclid Senior Development Plz, located at 5310 N Euclid Ave in St. Louis, MO, is an independent living community managed by the St. Louis Housing Authority, and you'll find 108 units made up of studio and two-bedroom apartments here, though in the rest of their portfolio they offer a variety of apartment sizes ranging up to five bedrooms and some townhouse style buildings too, but this specific property sticks with apartment types for elderly residents that don't have a lot of extra frills but do have what folks need. Apartments are set up with wheelchair access, walk-in showers, electric stoves, refrigerators, mini blinds, and pet-friendly features-utilities, secured WiFi, cable, and phone are included, and the building has accessible parking, elevators, wheelchair ramps, and 24-hour emergency maintenance so you don't have to worry about getting around or being stuck without help if there's a problem, and the place is easy to find in the Mark Twain neighborhood with quick access to I-70.
The community has a dining room designed to draw neighbors together over chef-prepared, nutritious meals, and there's also a cafeteria so no one goes hungry, plus you'll find regular exercise programs, classes, recreational events, and entertainment if you feel like keeping busy. For relaxing or socializing there's an activity room with an HD flat screen TV, social gathering areas, and ballroom dancing every Tuesday night which some folks seem to enjoy. Residents can use amenities like a gym, a fitness center, a pool, and even a beauty and barber shop without having to leave the property, while the on-site church, therapy services, and on-site banking help cut down on errands. Transportation and parking options are available for those outings or doctor appointments, and the place runs housekeeping services to keep apartments tidy.
Care types cover independent living, assisted living, memory care for those with Alzheimer's or dementia, and respite care for short stays, while staff can help with daily activities, medication management, and personal care if needed. The community tries to tailor care based on each person's past routines to help everyone keep a bit of their old lifestyle, and residents get opportunities to stay mentally, socially, and physically active through a variety of programs. There are both regular senior apartments for active, independent adults and specialized memory care homes set up in a neighborhood-style, so folks with different needs have a place. The overall feel here is lively and welcoming, and reviews from residents mention friendly, helpful staff and plenty of activity options.
Euclid Senior Development Plz is associated with larger St. Louis Housing Authority programs, which means it has connections to services and amenities at other senior-focused properties like Cahill House, Page Manor, and Parkview Apartments, and offers support for low-income seniors through the Public Housing program.
