Overview of Lakeview Health Care & Rehabilitation Center

Lakeview Health Care & Rehabilitation Center is a skilled nursing facility on Ashley Road in Boonville, Missouri. The home is operated by Boonville #1, Inc. under the ownership of Eric Barnes, with Todd Anderson serving as administrator. Medicare, Medicaid, and private pay are accepted, so families have multiple ways to cover short-term rehabilitation and longer-term skilled nursing care.

The surrounding neighborhood is moderately walkable. Visiting family members can complete some errands on foot, but they’ll need transportation for most trips.

The 96-bed facility currently operates at 45% occupancy. Residents stay an average of 193 days, including post-acute rehabilitation patients and those receiving ongoing nursing care. Daily nursing support averages 3 hours and 34 minutes per resident. Registered nurses, licensed practical nurses, and nurse aides provide care and support throughout the day.

State inspections identified areas related to medication management and nursing staffing practices. Families touring the facility should ask how these areas are monitored and managed as part of daily operations and clinical oversight.

Lakeview is still a relatively new facility, as it just started operating within the past year. Families evaluating the facility should ask about the care team’s experience and how it works on staffing and employee retention. The community’s moderate occupancy level means there’s greater availability and shorter wait times for admission.

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 Rock Island Village

The facility specializes in assisted living and memory care services, with emphasis on personalized care in a supportive environment.

The walk score of 66 reflects moderately walkable surroundings; residents can accomplish some errands on foot, though most daily needs will require transportation. The facility is situated at the city center, providing immediate access to local amenities and services.

Beyond basic operational structure, publicly available data are sparse. This absence of operational transparency makes independent evaluation difficult for families considering placement.

The facility’s inspection profile shows zero routine inspections compared to the Missouri state average of seven, which could indicate a recent opening or limited survey activity relative to comparable Missouri assisted living facilities. Without access to the complete inspection record and detailed staffing breakdown, families cannot assess regulatory history or identify any substantive compliance issues. The zero-inspection finding requires clarification regarding the facility’s age, licensure status, and operational standing before consideration for placement.

Missouri residents may access multiple payment assistance programs, including Medicaid A&D Waiver, Supplemental Nursing Care, Structured Family Caregiving Waiver, MO HealthNet Aged/Blind/Disabled, Medicare Savings Program, Caregiver Program, and Veterans Aid and Attendance. The facility accepts these programs; however, pricing and cost-sharing details are not publicly listed.

Families should ask about memory care programming and staffing credentials and training details, occupancy, licensing, inspections, and quality metrics from Rock Island Village.
