The Best Senior Living Communities in Webster Groves, MO

"My mother used to live in the Brentmoor Retirement Community. They don't have memory care, but they have assisted living which is on the second floor, and then they have independent living. She moved out a year ago in September. She loved Brentmoor. They had a really beautiful restaurant, the food was great, and her place was gorgeous. She had a 2-bedroom apartment, and it's got beautiful views. The staff was wonderful, and it was a very, very nice place. She had a nice group of friends, and she really enjoyed it. She had a full kitchen, a living room, a dining room, 2-bedrooms, and 2-bathrooms. They have a 1-bedroom and they have studios, but she wanted an extra bedroom in case somebody came to visit 'cause all my siblings, we all live in different States. Usually once a month they would go to a restaurant or they'd take a drive somewhere like Marquette which is a couple hours away. They took outings downtown, they had all sorts of people coming showing all sorts of stuff, cooking, speakers, they had political speakers and historical people come. It was a very stimulating place, and it was a very good fit for her. They had an occupational therapist within the building. They had really good food 'cause I would go over there and eat with my mom a lot. The staff was wonderful. They had this little tag, like a "Do Not Disturb" tag, and when they were up in the morning, they would just put it out and say "I'm OK." So, someone would go around every day checking, and when it wasn't on the door, they would check to make sure they were all right, so that was kind of nice. They had exercise. They were kind of pricey for independent living. I think the last time, her payments were $3700 to $3800 a month, and I'm sure it has probably gone up."

"My mom has been in Memory Care at Kingsland Walk for over three years. The facility is well maintained and clean. We are thrilled with the Executive Director, who is organized. professional and easy talk with. She is good with employees and always smiling. The staff is wonderful ..from Maintenance to Housekeeping, Medicine and Caregiving. We adore the MC Director, Tanika, and all the Care, devotion and long hours she puts in caring for my mom and all the residents. She and her staff are the best we have had in all our tenure here and we feel extremely blessed that mom is safe, clean and cared for in every way. These wonderful people are like family to us."

"I toured Tower Grove Manor. I liked the rooms. They're just too high for me. The place seemed good to me. They have a community place where you can sit out. The rooms were very nice. The staff was nice."

"If I could give the staff a 10 I would! They are compassionate, friendly and and even fun! With any care facility you are going to have concerns or issues with particular care, personality conflicts, or maybe just alot of questions. I know we did. This was my mother and I only wanted the very best for her. When I had these concerns the supervising staff was very attentive to fix the problem no matter how big or small. It warms my heart to go there and see her caregivers hugging,calling her sweet nicknames, and joking with her. I know we made the right decision. She has plenty of activities to keep her busy and she is very happy at Sunrise of Des Peres."

"I like my apartment I like most of the activities that we do It's clean and friendly its a good place to live"

"I toured Autumn View Gardens - St. Louis. The tour was very good. All of the staff was excellent. The accommodations were very good. The price was good. It's a studio. It had a little mini kitchen and a bathroom, and I was impressed that the majority of them had an outside balcony. It was enclosed where they could sit out, so we were very impressed. They showed us the cafeteria area. They were there, and they'd been doing laundry, so we saw the process of putting your basket out and getting your basket back in with your clothes. They had a whole list of activities, which we were thrilled with, because, right now, my mom is sedentary. So, they had this big list of activities and everything that they offered. They had a calendar posted throughout the hallways. They had an exercise room, a courtyard, and a big space for families to gather if they wanted to come. They had a big seating area with couches and stuff for the family."

"My mother lived in Brookdale Creve Coeur. We moved her because of the cost. With the money she has, we couldn't sustain at Brookdale for $11,000 a month. It just wasn't gonna work, but I'd give them a five on everything. There were no weaknesses in anything. It was just perfect."

"My mom moved to Avalon Memory Care St. Louis. They are wonderful. They have done everything we've asked them to do. The price is a little high, but overall for what you're getting, they take very much pride in what they do. They attend to the seniors, they toilet them every two hours. They have activities for them. They take care of them. They shower them twice a week. They have great meals, and it's a beautiful place. Overall, it's just a very comfortable, warm environment, and loving family-type setting. There's not one person in our family that visited there that didn't like it and didn't think it was just a very comfortable place to live. The staff is all very kind and generous, and they text us with pictures of my mom eating dinner, calling us, or anything, and they're very attentive. They also communicate with us almost daily. The facility is beautiful, but there's very little parking. The rooms are very roomy. They have a beautiful walk-in shower, a separate vanity, a big closet, and a TV screen that's mounted on the wall. I wasn't able to try their food, but it smelled good when I was there. They have them all in a communal area while watching TV. They do have a craft table that some of them can go to, work crafts and put things together. They also play bingo. The value was about the same price we were paying for full skilled nursing, but it seems like they're doing a lot more for her than even the full skilled nursing staff was doing."

"My brother has moved into Solstice Senior Living at Fenton. My brother is in a little apartment and gets his meals and everything. The apartment is 350 square feet. He is on the first floor. They have everything. They have a lot of stuff that he can join in and do. They have a bus to take them to places. I love it and he loves it, so that's all that matters. The building is very nice. It smells like a restaurant. I love everything about it. There's nothing negative about the place that I found."

"I toured Brookdale West County. The experience was good. It's very neatly laid out. It is clean, and the staff is very friendly, and so is the lady who gave me a tour. Her name was Katie. The rooms were spacious and well-maintained. The food and dining area was very up-to-date. They have a library, a hair salon, a movie theater, and rooms for residents to have guests over for a larger party."

"My father stayed a few weeks on the acute rehab side and then moved over to the skilled nursing care side for a few more weeks till he got strong enough to come home. First of all, the place is beautiful- both the rooms and overall facility. It is kept very nice and has a cheery atmosphere. It even has its own bakery that is open daily to get a sweet treat. The staff is attentive and patient and hard working on behalf of their patients. They responded to my calls and treated my father with extra special care. We were extremely nervous about having my father in a nursing home...and we got so LUCKY when we found Brooking Park. It was more like a home which was a grateful surprise! I/we highly recommend this facility!"

"I moved into Holiday Briarcrest Estates. It's a very good place. The staff is great. They're very helpful. The food is really good. It's three meals a day. The people who live here are very friendly. It's got a lot of good stuff about it."

"In the last 12 months Town & Country Senior Living, has had: 2 Executive Directors, 4 Director of Wellness, High turnover of staff, Unable to get direct email for staff (had to go through main line), Poor communication between residents, staff, family and in house doctor, less than a year it has changed ownership again."

"My parents are in St. Andrews. I like it because it’s really homey, small, and the people are very caring. They provide activities and have outside courtyards where you can go and be safe. I have nothing but good things to say about it. I’ve eaten there a couple of times, and the food was good. They appear to care for the people and are generally concerned about my parents. "
