The Best Assisted Living Communities in Maries County, MO

"My dad moved to Oak Pointe of Rolla. The staff there is wonderful. They are very compassionate and very thoughtful. They've done a great job of taking care of my dad. I had eaten with my dad a few times and I think the meals were very good. They're nutritious, well, well-balanced. The dining room is very nice, and people who live there enjoy their meal time. It's kind of their social time of the day. They offer physical therapy there. I know they have a lot of nice activities there, but Dad doesn't take advantage of all of them. I think they do a great job with money management. They do their best to keep the cost down."

"The facility was basic, but patient needs were well provided for. It had a very homey feeling to it; it felt very warm and comfortable. The residents were all very polite and friendly. There were lots of activities to participate in and most of the residents spend as much time as they can with others. I am not sure about what types of rooms are available, but the one I visited many times was a medium sized room with 2 residents. It was plenty of room for them and they were in great condition. The facility is located in the country, away from traffic, noise, and all the hustle and bustle. It was always nice to be able to spend some time outside on the deck, enjoying the peace and quiet and visiting. Still, it's only about 15 minutes away from Rolla, MO, which has just about everything a resident would want or need. Overall, I would say that this is a very nice facility. Pay them a visit and see what you think! "

"I went to Parkside Senior Living two months ago. I thought the facility was nice, and the people were great too. I had a very positive impression of it. I saw things like a private dining room, as a kind of an on-demand restaurant-style area where people could order exactly what they wanted. I chatted with one or two residents. It was a positive experience. However, we liked the location of the other place, and it was close to a $1000 difference, so Parkside was a little bit more expensive. I think the activities were better, they had several field trips, I guess they go on field trips at least weekly. So I thought that was great. I met their chef, but we did not get to try anything. They had raised gardens for the residents."

"My brother-in-law and his wife are staying in Rolla Presbyterian Manor, and they were both very happy being there. It's a wonderful community and it's just a perfect place for them. They're helpful and great people. They have a courtyard where they can go outside and sit. It's very beautiful and it's clean. Having had other relatives there before, I became familiar with the food actually, and it's very good. My brother-in-law is very happy with it too. He said they feed them all the time."

"Victorian Place of Owensville was excellent, but I ended up leaving because they fired the manager, the lifestyle coordinator, and the activity director out there. I was there for several years, probably at least ten years before they fired the manager and the activity director. They do outreach for benefit, like a fishing derby in their pond and so many other activities. They are always actively doing something to raise money for Alzheimer's, dementia people, or disabled people. The grounds were beautiful and they're kept up pretty well. The room was a better size than the one I have now. The staff was excellent. They had very good cooks. They had an actual chef there. They had a very good person who ran the dietary department and the dining room. They don't have as many residents now, but the same residents that I was once there with are still there. The food was pretty good because they had a chef. They would let us have choices as to what we wanted to eat. The staff could be a little bit better with the CMAs and the med aides. They couldn't keep good help. When I was there, I pretty much did most of the activities along with the residents."
