Mill Creek Village Senior Living in Columbia, MO delivers three levels of care—Assisted Living, Independent Living, and Memory Care—under one roof. Residents with wandering behaviors in the morning or evening, those at risk for elopement, and people living with advanced dementia can receive structured oversight in secured areas. Licensed nursing (RN/LPN) coverage, medication management, and on-site podiatry and therapy services support day-to-day medical and rehabilitative needs, while pull-cord and PERS systems connect residents to staff around the clock.
Additional safeguards include 24-hour awake staff, routine background checks on employees, door alarms, a fenced rear courtyard, and continuous security rounds. The community can provide full assistance with bathing, dressing, eating, and toileting, and staff are trained for walker and wheelchair support, standby or supervised transfers, and one-person lift transfers. An Activity Director coordinates cognitive and physical programs that complement medical plans of care, ensuring engagement for residents across all service levels.
Apartments are available in several layouts; some feature private bathrooms, kitchenettes, independent climate controls, and cable service, while others offer more basic configurations. Housekeeping and scheduled laundry are included, and maintenance is handled by on-site personnel. For Independent Living residents, medication-management monitoring, weekly housekeeping and laundry, and a monthly meal plan can be added to maintain wellness without sacrificing autonomy.
Dining options include a standard menu served at set times, an on-order system for greater choice, and snacks accessible throughout the day. A private dining room can be reserved for family visits or special occasions. The culinary team supports physician-ordered diet modifications and texture management, coordinating closely with clinical staff to align meals with each resident’s health plan.
Mill Creek Village rounds out daily life with resident parking, wheelchair-accessible common areas, an exercise room, movie room, barber/beauty shop, wellness center, internet access, communal gardens, library, special-interest clubs, and on-site religious services. Outdoor smoking is permitted in designated areas, pets are allowed, and it’s a good idea to check with the community during your visit to see if your pet will be allowed. Community-scheduled transportation is available for medical appointments, shopping, and social outings.
