Overview of Cedarhurst of Tesson Heights

Cedarhurst of Tesson Heights is a three-story, 108-bed community in St. Louis County that offers both independent and assisted living, run by Cedarhurst of Tesson Heights Operator, LLC and administered by Thomas Hornstein. It sits at 12335 W Bend Dr, in a car-dependent stretch of St. Louis (Walk Score 23), so getting around mostly means driving, not walking.

The community runs at 59 percent occupancy, below capacity but not unusual for a building this size. Staff are on site around the clock, and residents can tap into rehabilitation services, respite care, and nursing support as their needs shift. That range matters here, since the building houses two different levels of care under one address.

Day to day, meals come through full-service, all-day dining, and a transportation program handles the trips residents would otherwise need a car or a family member for. Outside, landscaped courtyards give people a place to sit that isn’t a hallway or a dining room, and pets are welcome, which isn’t nothing for someone leaving a house they’ve lived in for decades.

The pricing splits cleanly: $2,675 a month for independent living, $4,600 for assisted living. That gap is the real story here; it’s a community built to hold someone through a transition, from living mostly on their own to needing daily hands-on care, without forcing a move across town when their needs change.

Overview of Steelville Senior Living

Administrator Ashley Drewel directs operations at Steelville Senior Living, a 93-bed nursing community located on North Spring Street in Steelville, Missouri. The facility keeps the setup simple for families by working with standard payment options such as private pay, Medicaid, and Medicare. Relatives dropping by for a visit will find a somewhat walkable neighborhood grid, so you can take care of a few small errands on foot, but a vehicle is still your best bet for general travel.

The building runs at a lower occupancy rate of 44 percent since it is a relatively new addition to the area, with residents staying an average of 142 days. This operational timeline shows that the staff splits their daily routine between short-term post-hospital therapy tracks and extended residential care. To keep up with regular clinical targets, the 24-hour shift schedule delivers an average of 3 hours and 49 minutes of direct nursing care per resident each day, utilizing a combined rotation of registered nurses, practical nurses, and aides.

State health department inspectors keep public records of how the building aligns with regular safety and licensing codes. Past evaluation summaries have noted a few procedural areas needing some adjustment, specifically focusing on kitchen food safety protocols, clinical infection control steps, daily staffing schedules, and medication management routines, keeping the total citation rate above zero.

Prospective representatives can evaluate the on-site outpatient rehabilitation programs, therapy spaces, and independent activity rooms. The everyday routine features restaurant-style dining with menu choices planned by a dietitian, plus extras like building-wide Wi-Fi, local transportation, an internal beauty shop, and a private dining room for guests.

State files show that the campus houses 84 active residents within its 190-bed layout. Average stays run well past six months, an operating timeline showing a daily routine that centers heavily on intermediate residential care alongside standard post-hospital recovery paths. To keep up with everyone’s daily treatments and medical needs, the facility’s nurses and aides put in about 2 hours and 45 minutes of direct care per resident every day.

State public health oversight databases store current files tracking how well the building aligns with regulatory licensing requirements.

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 261 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.
