Assisted Living Communities in Washington, MO

"Harvester Residential Care looked pretty good, but when I was trying to get all the money together, it wasn't quite working out then. I liked it. I would give it a positive rating. The staff was good. I didn't have that much interaction with them, but the limited time I was there, I liked it. The rooms were good. I felt good about the place. It would have worked out for me. It was a bunch of small buildings, and I would have felt comfortable living there."

"Our family had never heard of Brooking Park until we needed an unplanned skilled level of care for a relative. They had an opening when we needed one and I found out that they were caring,met my aunt's needs, kept me posted and were very responsive until her last day. I would recommend Brooking Park and their team. "

"We checked out Lake St Charles Retirement Community and looked at their independent living. The physical appearance is beautiful. It has very good qualities, it is extremely clean, and the people there are very nice. The service that I received when we first walked in was very polite and very professional. The gentleman walked us around the place explaining everything and all the amenities. I was very pleased with everything. We didn't try their food but the menu looked very good. I think they also have an ice cream shop. Everything is homemade like the cakes, pies, and cookies for the residents. They have soups, salads, and desserts. Nothing is brought in so it's very good. They have a nice recreation center for the people. They also have a lot of military people there so it's very nice. When the staff walked us around, he told me about the amenities they had for the military people and my uncle is a retired veteran so that's good. He talked about all the games that they have and different things so there were a lot of activities if they want to participate there. Everybody was extremely nice. There wasn't a single rude person. Even the people that you walked by, like the patients, were all very nice. They all said hi and talked to each other. I have to say that it's a very nice place. You get a good feeling when you walk in."

"I am thrilled that my mother is among loving and caring individuals and not just sitting alone in her house. It was quite a move for my mom, but she is involved in life again and is socialized which she really needed. I love the Homestead..the accommodations are nice, my mom has meals provided for her and activities to attend, if she so chooses. "

"Loved the staff & Manager!!!! We only moved mom due to her need of a higher care!!! "

"We visited Oak Pointe of Washington and it was very nice. The staff seemed very nice, the place was very, very nice, clean, and the room that we looked at was really a nice, spacious room. I would have had no complaints with my parents moving there. We went in just to basically see what the room looked like, to see if it was someplace my dad would wanna go with mom when she got out of the hospital."

"My aunt moved into Victorian Place of Washington. She used to live in the middle of a wooded area, and this place is set up with woods behind it, and a little pond in front. The welcome that we got when we came to visit there, and the people who remembered my aunt's name, were very welcoming. My aunt's room was nice. We liked that they fixed any patched or former stuff in the walls. They also had it furnished. They provided a bed and a sofa, so that made it easy to get her moved in quickly. They have something called Balance Academy that they do in the mornings during the week. It's a little exercise class to get everybody engaged. They go to the library. They do quite a lot of things. They seem to be very resident centered. The pricing is all-inclusive, so they do not keep adding unless it gets more extreme. We've been very happy so far. It's easy to contact them, and they've just been very helpful."

"Crabapple Village was very good. We had a couple of visits there. It was attractive. It was in a nice location. It had anything from independent living to assisted living. It was very clean. The people seemed to be well taken care of. The staff members were good."

"We toured Oak Pointe Assisted Living. It was very nice, beautiful, clean, and neat. Everything was just wonderful, the rooms, the facilities, and the big dining area. It's very well and modern. We did eat there but weren't as crazy with the food as in the other facility that we went to."

"Park Place at WingHaven was beautiful. Their rooms were amazing and huge. The hallways looked like small town porches with little gas lights on the end. The amenities were fabulous. They had an amazing list of activities to do outside of the home. The residents can bus and go to a ballgame, attend to concerts, or go out to stores and to restaurants. They also had a movie theater, all kinds of indoor activities, and they bring in singers and musicians. I was impressed that they offered a bunch of things for families to do. They had a family kitchen where they could come in and eat and make dinner with the resident and be able to use public space to hold large gatherings. The staff was very helpful. It was the nicest facility we saw."

"I visited Elsberry Missouri Health Care Center. They're very clean. They just added on a part, and the structure was very good. They have things and stuff for them to play. The staff was very personable with the people, and they're very friendly. They keep the place real clean."

"Village Center Care of Wentzville is a small community, which means you get more hands-on help from the nurses. The lady that toured me helped out pretty much with my questions. She's worked there for 11 years, so that sounds really good. There's a yard where they can go out, a little smoking area, and a patio. They have games and do different things. Now and then, they'll take trips to different places. Right now, they're getting the floors redone, so it doesn't give you that homey feeling yet, but I think when they are done, you'll get that better feeling when going inside."

"The people at Twin Oaks at Heritage Pointe were very nice, very warm, and friendly. It's run as a family facility. It's very nice and everybody pays the same amount. It has two floors and mom would have been on the top floor, so that would have been an issue for her. However, they had the most awesome setup there. The layout was set up in pods where they have one living room and dining room, a gathering/great room in the middle, and all the resident's rooms were off of that. They each had a little sun porch or deck or something where they could go outside. They had game tables in the middle (in their great room area). I saw some women playing cards, and they all seemed to enjoy themselves. They were just a little pricey and their food was not restaurant-style. Whatever they're serving today, that is what they're having and I did not like that. They raved that they have a chef, but they don't kind of accommodate you. So, I wasn't impressed with their dining experience situation."
