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.

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 Mari De Villa Retirement Center

Mari De Villa Retirement Center covers five care types in Town and Country, MO. Nursing home, memory care, respite care, skilled nursing, and independent living are the five. Independent living comes with the community services and no daily care at all. Memory care supervises a resident in a setting kept secure, wandering being the point of it.

The two nursing designations bring licensed nursing on site at every hour. Short-term rehab covers a temporary stay pointed at recovery, and respite covers a short one while a usual caregiver travels or gets well. Having that many levels at one address suits somebody whose needs will grow, since the next one is already here.

Two hundred and twenty-four beds are licensed. Frederick Wiesehan is the administrator.
