Overview of The Gardens Assisted Living & Memory Care

The Gardens Assisted Living & Memory Care operates from Springfield, MO, running independent living in addition to assisted living and memory care.

Anyone who may wander is supervised within memory care, and the space is secured.

With all three available, a resident’s care can change as needs change, without a move. Respite covers the gap when someone is ready to leave the hospital, but home isn’t set up yet, and Short-Term Rehab provides rehabilitation on a temporary basis. Garden Homes is a named program here.

Frequently Asked Questions about Memory Care 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.

Does Missouri Medicaid cover memory care?

Missouri Medicaid does not directly pay room-and-board for memory care, 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.
