Located at 700 East Urbandale Drive in rural Randolph County, Aspire of Moberly operates as a skilled nursing facility with integrated memory care services in Moberly, Missouri. The facility is privately owned under a corporate structure.
Currently census at 64 residents within a 120-bed licensed capacity, the facility admits patients across multiple payment sources: Medicare (40% of new admissions, typical 1–2 month stays), Medicaid (22% of new admissions, typical 2-year stays), and private pay (37% of new admissions, typical 5–6 month stays). Current resident population reflects 7.8% Medicare, 53.1% Medicaid, and 39.1% private pay. Occupancy of 57.3% sits notably below the state benchmark of 66.6%, with an average length of stay of 364 days indicating a predominantly long-term care population despite the short-stay rehabilitation admissions pattern.
The one-star CMS overall rating reflects substantial performance gaps across regulatory categories. Health inspections score 59.7% below Missouri averages, staffing measures run 54.3% below state norms, and quality metrics fall 24.7% below state performance.
Registered nurse staffing provides 12 minutes per resident per day, 57% below the Missouri average of 28 minutes. Weekend RN coverage drops to 11 minutes, 45% below state average. Physical therapy services represent an exception: 9 minutes per resident per day, running 350% above state benchmarks. The facility operates with 82 total staff members (79 employees, 3 contractors), including 31 certified nursing assistants, 16 medication aides, 11 licensed practical nurses, and 5 registered nurses.
Federal enforcement actions reflect $111,000 in accumulated civil money penalties over the past three years, with a recent penalty of $95,000 imposed in September 2025. A Medicare/Medicaid payment denial occurred September 18, 2024, lasting 2 days.
Long-stay residents show elevated rates of urinary tract infections (6.5%, 138% worse than state average) and pressure ulcers (6.9%, 38% worse). However, the facility reports no falls with major injury among short-stay residents (0.0%), superior depression screening outcomes (4.9%, 62% better than state average), and strong functional outcome measures. Self-care capacity at discharge reaches 81.8%, 52% better than state benchmarks.
Though it has substantial regulatory concerns, the facility fits Medicaid-funded long-term care residents and Medicare-eligible rehabilitation patients.

Frequently Asked Questions about Independent Living in Missouri
What is independent living?
Independent living communities are residential settings for active older adults — typically with private apartments or cottages, shared amenities (dining, fitness, activities), and no built-in medical care.
How many independent living communities are listed on this page?
This page features 118 independent living communities in Missouri. Use the filters and comparison tools above to compare ratings, amenities, and pricing.
How do I choose the right independent living community 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 independent living communities 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.
