Southview Assisted Living & Memory Care in Affton, Missouri, delivers two primary levels of care: assisted living and memory care. The team is prepared to support residents who wander during the day or night, exhibit exit-seeking behavior, stay awake overnight, or live with complex conditions such as advanced dementia. Clinical capabilities include wound management, oxygen therapy, and the full spectrum of diabetic oversight—oral medication, injections, and sliding-scale monitoring. Special diets are accommodated to meet physician instructions.

The community maintains an RN or LPN on staff with a nurse on call 24 hours a day, and all direct-care employees undergo background checks. An awake night shift, door alarms, pull-cords, and personal emergency response devices support safety, while a fenced rear area reduces elopement risks. On-site services include podiatry, dental care, a therapy room, and acceptance of psychiatric diagnoses. Staff can provide full assistance with bathing, dressing, and toileting, while residents who can manage meals independently are encouraged to do so. Transfers are supported for walkers, wheelchairs, standby help, or one-person assist.

Residences are designed to balance independence with oversight. Floor plans may include private bathrooms, kitchenettes, individual climate controls, cable service, and regular housekeeping, though not every apartment offers every feature. Scheduled laundry service is available, and maintenance is handled by the community.

Dining operates on an order-as-requested system, with menu choices adjusted for medical or personal requirements. The kitchen can provide pureed meals, thickened liquids, vegetarian selections, and other physician-directed modifications. A private dining room is available for family gatherings and special occasions.

Amenities and convenience services round out daily life. Residents have access to parking, outdoor smoking areas, wheelchair-accessible common spaces, a barber and beauty shop, exercise and movie rooms, a wellness center, internet connectivity, communal gardens, on-site religious services, a stair glide, concierge support, a library, and various clubs. Transportation is offered via a community shuttle for medical appointments. Pets are permitted; it’s a good idea to check with the community during your visit to see if your pet will be allowed.
