Overview of Carnegie Village

Located at 107 Bernard Dr in Belton, Missouri, Carnegie Village operates as an 85-bed nursing home with mixed-acuity care. The privately owned facility, administered by Jessica Bradham, serves older adults requiring short-term rehabilitation through its nursing home, assisted living, independent living, and memory care tracks. Nursing staff include 18 registered nurses, 39 licensed practical nurses, and 118 certified nursing assistants, supported by 102 contracted caregivers. A staff-to-resident ratio of 3.34 to 1 runs 97 percent above the Missouri state average.

The facility’s 2-star overall CMS rating reflects inspection performance. Since 2019, the community recorded 44 deficiency citations, 48 percent above the Missouri average. A critical Quality of Care citation in March 2024 was corrected, as was a substantiated Abuse and Neglect citation in September 2024. More recent corrective actions suggest responsiveness to identified compliance gaps.

Federal penalties totaled $16,000 in 2024, 79 percent lower than the Missouri average.

Quality measures tell a mixed picture. The facility earned a 4-star rating for both staffing and quality outcomes, with strong performance on pressure ulcer and incontinence prevention. Yet falls with major injury and unintended weight loss run notably above Missouri averages. Nurse hours average 3 hours 28 minutes per resident per day, slightly below state benchmarks.

Occupancy stands at 92 percent, ranking 31st among 283 Missouri nursing homes, reflecting sustained local demand. The payer mix is weighted toward Medicare (36 percent of admissions, averaging 21-day stays) and private pay (56 percent).

Restaurant-style dining, wellness programming, and 24-hour staffing support day-to-day operations.

Carnegie Village orients toward short-term post-acute rehabilitation in a mixed-acuity setting, with strong staffing infrastructure alongside a compliance history requiring ongoing monitoring.

Frequently Asked Questions about Assisted Living in Missouri

What's the difference between assisted living and memory care in Missouri?

Assisted living in Missouri supports residents with daily activities (bathing, dressing, medication management) while preserving independence. Memory care is a specialized form of assisted living for residents living with Alzheimer's or dementia, and adds 24/7 secured environments, dementia-trained staff, and structured routines designed to reduce confusion and wandering.

What's the difference between assisted living and a nursing home in Missouri?

Assisted living in Missouri is a residential model focused on housing, hospitality, and help with daily activities. Nursing homes (skilled nursing facilities) provide 24/7 medical care from licensed nurses for residents with significant health needs, and are regulated more strictly under both state and federal CMS rules.

Does Missouri Medicaid cover assisted living?

Missouri Medicaid does not directly pay room-and-board for assisted living, but most states (including Missouri) offer Home and Community-Based Services (HCBS) waivers that can offset the cost of care services delivered inside a licensed community. Eligibility, waitlists, and covered services vary — check directly with the state Medicaid agency.

What is assisted living?

Assisted living combines private or semi-private apartments with help on activities of daily living (meals, bathing, dressing, medication management) and a social calendar — for residents who need some support but do not need 24/7 medical care.

How many assisted living facilities are listed on this page?

This page features 285 assisted living facilities in Missouri. Use the filters and comparison tools above to compare ratings, amenities, and pricing.

How do I choose the right assisted living facility in Missouri?

Start by matching the level of care offered to the resident's current and anticipated needs, then compare licensing status, staff-to-resident ratios, recent inspection results, and pricing. Tour at least two or three communities in Missouri, talk to current residents and families, and confirm what is included in the base rate versus billed as add-on services.

What should I look for when visiting assisted living facilities in Missouri?

Pay attention to staff interactions with residents, cleanliness and odor, food quality at meal times, the activity calendar, and how questions about pricing and care plans are answered. Ask to see the most recent state inspection report, the move-out / level-of-care-change policy, and a sample monthly bill that lists every fee.
