Creve Coeur Assisted Living and Memory Care

My mom lived at Creve Coeur Assisted Living and Memory Care for her last 3 months. Previously she had lived in her own home. From the time she moved in, the atmosphere was positive. Through her initial adjustment period, she gave the staff a challenge. The well trained staff knew how to gain the trust and acceptance of a reluctant resident. Through the staff’s kindness, responsiveness, and patience my mom came to love each of her caretakers and her new home. From the resident aides, to the nurses, to the kitchen staff, to the business office, to the housekeeping, maintenance, and activity staff, I never heard a harsh word or any negativity. There was a genuine desire to help my mom be as comfortable and safe as possible in her new home. As my mom’s condition declined, the staff was able to handle the additional care.
The meals are served with respect in a beautiful dining room. There are alternate food choices if the resident would prefer. There are special dinners that the residents get excited over.
The activités are varied and interesting. I wish my mom would could have taken advantage of more of them. While she could, she loved bingo and morning fitness.
Creve Coeur Assisted Living is like a real home. Residents can welcome family and guests like they would to their home in the past. The community rooms are inviting and the outside spaces offer the opportunity to enjoy beautiful weather.
I am so happy with the decision to move my mom to Creve Coeur Assisted Living. It made her last months safe, and gave me the peace of mind I needed as she could no longer live alone.
