Memory Care Wellness | The Grande at Creve Coeur

A Comprehensive Wellness Approach to Memory Care

We believe a healthy body fosters a healthy mind. This philosophy translates into personalized, comprehensive wellness plans for each resident. Developed in collaboration with our psychiatric care practitioner, these plans address the specific challenges of cognitive impairment, empowering residents to live fulfilling lives.

Understanding the crucial role of stability and comfort, our programs are designed to meet the individual needs of those living with cognitive challenges. We embrace a holistic approach, treating mind, body, and spirit with equal importance.

On-Site Therapy

We offer on-site therapy programming, including physical, occupational, and speech-language therapy. Our innovative therapists use a holistic approach that empowers residents to achieve their wellness goals.

Our physical therapists strive to improve mobility, balance, and strength through a custom blend of therapeutic exercises and hands-on care, ensuring residents can pursue their passions with vigor and confidence.

Communication is a bridge that connects us, and our speech therapy program helps maintain and enhance this vital connection.

Our therapy team addresses difficulties with speech, language, and swallowing, empowering residents to express themselves clearly and enjoy the social aspects of life.

Meaningful activities are central to one’s sense of self, and occupational therapy supports our residents in navigating daily life with ease and autonomy.

Welcome Home: Supporting Residents & Their Well-Being

Our Welcome Home program extends our comprehensive and compassionate care to memory care residents, easing their transition into our community.

We collaborate directly with personal physicians, pharmacists, and other healthcare providers to craft personalized Lifestyle & Wellness Plans for each resident. This collaborative approach ensures your loved one receives the care they need.

We are here to support you every step of the way. The process can be as quick as the same day or match the timeline that best serves your family’s needs. Our experienced team of professionals is committed to making the process seamless and efficient for you. We manage all aspects of the process and provide you with the resources and support that you may need!

We encourage you to visit the community as many times as you’d like. We believe that meeting our team and experiencing the community in person is invaluable in making this decision. In addition to the tour, we also welcome you to join us for a meal or an event!

During your visit, we will schedule a time to develop a customized Lifestyle & Wellness Plan for your loved one. This is a rather easy process that can be completed at home or in our community.

A Lifestyle & Wellness Plan evaluates the necessities for optimal resident well-being, covering aspects like:

Daily living activity support
Complete healthcare provisions
Proactive healthcare management and coordination
Accurate medication administration
Personalized nutritional plans

Our Lifestyle & Wellness Plan is pivotal in tailoring care to meet the individual needs of each resident. This process ultimately dictates the monthly level-of-care fee, meaning residents only pay for the services they need. This process also provides peace of mind and potentially prolongs the enjoyment of assisted living benefits.

The individual pricing model empowers residents to find the care they need at a price that makes sense, which can help extend their stay within our supportive community.

Discerning the appropriate level of care involves a systematic, 3-step process:

1. A comprehensive Lifestyle & Wellness Plan.

1. Analysis of the care and time associated with service provision.

1. Allocation of a suitable level of care based on this plan.

This straightforward method ensures residents with minimal requirements benefit from lower fees, while those necessitating extensive services receive ample support.

The Lifestyle & Wellness Plan is a process we use regularly so we can offer up-to-date support for residents.

These consistent evaluations are conducted with healthcare professionals, the resident, and their families, solidifying a joint effort in wellness strategy.

We are adept at adjusting our services to align with residents’ evolving needs. By continually monitoring and communicating, we can match their needs as they change.

Our team will coordinate with your loved one’s physician and manage all aspects of the necessary health forms. If moving from out of town, we have partnerships with local physicians who can help support this process. The next step is the Residency Agreement, which we send electronically. Once you receive the agreement, we coordinate a meeting with you to review any and all questions.

Our “Making it Home” program is focused on creating a personalized plan for the day of move-in and the weeks following. Your loved one will have a resident ambassador and an associate ambassador to support them through their transition. We will also schedule weekly calls to ensure the move-in experience is exactly as it should be!
