Assisted Living, Memory Care & Respite Care · Port St. Lucie, FL

Overview of Watercrest St. Lucie West

Watercrest St. Lucie West offers assisted living, memory care, and respite care in Port St. Lucie, Florida, in the Saint Lucie West neighborhood. Assisted living provides help with daily tasks such as bathing, dressing, and medication while a resident maintains a private living space; memory care provides a secured setting with supervision for someone who may be at risk of wandering. Respite care offers a short-term stay, which can suit a family caregiver who needs time to travel, recover, or manage another obligation.

Assisted living starts at $4,500, and memory care starts at $6,750; the separate rates reflect the different support and secured setting associated with memory care. A pool, salon services, massage, and outdoor spaces give residents places for recreation, personal care, and time outside. Restaurant-style dining with chef-prepared meals provides prepared food within the community, while fitness, therapy, and rehabilitation services support activity and care needs.

The community is car-dependent, with a Walk Score of 38, so most errands require a car or a ride; transportation services offer a community-based option for getting out. Pets are allowed, enabling a resident to bring a pet when moving in. Bobi Kruemberg serves as the director, and the combination of assisted living, memory care, and respite care can suit a resident whose needs may change or a family seeking a temporary care arrangement.
