Overview of Smiley Manor

Smiley Manor occupies a residential address at 5415 Thekla Ave in St. Louis, Missouri, 5.3 miles from the city center. The community is a 20-bed residential care facility offering assisted living, residential care, and respite care, administered by Naton Smith under Smiley Manor, LLC. It has operated for 14 years. The neighborhood sits at a Walk Score of 49, so most outings require a car or arranged transport.

Occupancy is 18 of 20 beds, a 90% fill rate. For a 20-bed community, that’s a meaningful signal of consistent local demand.

Licensed nurses and CNAs staff the building around the clock. Included services cover meals, medication management, housekeeping, and laundry. A physician visits monthly on-site, and the community arranges transportation to residents’ preferred doctors as needed. Shopping trips are available, and residents who want to attend church on Sundays have transportation arranged for that too.

Two details stand out as genuinely distinctive. First, personal interpreters for Swahili and Sign Language are available, which is a concrete, practical support for residents and families who use either of those languages. Second, the community operates Medical and Psychiatric programs, which suggests a capacity to support residents with more complex or behavioral health needs alongside standard assisted living care.

Short-term respite placement is also offered for families managing a transition or caregiver break.

Smiley Manor is a small, consistently occupied residential care setting in St. Louis with staffed medical support, language accessibility, and a scope of services that extends to behavioral health, suited to older adults who need attentive daily care in an intimate environment.

Overview of American House Wildwood Village

American House Wildwood Village keeps a Wildwood, MO, address, with respite care, memory care, independent living, and assisted living on the license. Assisted living supplies the help a resident needs with dressing, bathing, and taking medication, and the private apartment is still theirs. Independent living leaves the daily care out and keeps the community’s services. Respite Stays is the program name for the short version, the one a family books with a finish date already on it.

Living Well Memory Care is the name of the memory care program, and what it comes down to is a secured setting with staff supervising inside it. Four levels on one license mean a resident’s care can change while everything else stays the same.

The license permits 94 beds, and the building is staffed around the clock. Rehabilitation Services are named, so therapy happens where a resident already is.

Dining, bistro, a salon, and a fitness center are all listed among the amenities, and a pet may come along too. On-site spiritual services are available through the community. Kathleen Nardoni is named a administrator, and the operating entity is Asr 251 Plaze Lessee, LLC.

Overview of Breeze Park – Lutheran Senior Services

Under its continuing care retirement community label, Breeze Park, Lutheran Senior Services in Weldon Spring, MO, has independent living, assisted living, memory care, nursing home care, and skilled nursing. That continuing care structure means rising needs can be met by staying at Breeze Park instead of moving to a different community.

Daily help isn’t part of independent living, though community services are. The assisted level adds staff help for bathing, medication, and dressing. Memory care supervises its residents inside a secured space. The nursing home and skilled nursing care are provided by licensed nurses.

At 50 beds, Breeze Park is a smaller community, and staff-resident contact is closer as a result. Residences have one or two bedrooms, and a couple can choose the larger.

Payment options include Medicare, Medicaid, and private pay. Medicare’s coverage is a short skilled stay after a hospital admission and doesn’t extend to long-term residence. When savings won’t cover an extended stay, Medicaid may help. Nursing staff time averages 4 hours and 32 minutes per resident every day.

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 268 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.
