Rock Island Village in Eldon, Missouri, offers two primary levels of care: Assisted Living for residents who want daily support with independence in mind, and Memory Care for individuals living with Alzheimer’s disease or other forms of dementia. Both care types are designed to adapt as needs change, allowing residents to remain in the same community even if their care requirements increase over time.
Additional healthcare resources are integrated into daily life. The community is secured to safeguard Memory Care residents, and respite or short-term stays are available for families seeking temporary support. On-site medical services include diabetes monitoring, visiting physicians, medication management, hospice coordination, incontinence and ambulatory assistance, and rehabilitative services from physical, occupational, and speech therapists. A massage therapist provides non-pharmacological pain and stress management, and licensed staff members are present around the clock.
Apartments vary in size and layout, and they may feature kitchenettes, air conditioning, cable or satellite television, wheelchair-accessible showers, Wi-Fi, and views of outdoor areas or the central fireplace and piano lounge. Parking is available for residents who still drive. The community is pet friendly, but not every unit includes all listed features, so prospective residents should confirm specific details during a tour.
Dining is structured around an on-order menu system that lets residents select meals at the time of service rather than choosing days in advance. For gatherings with family or friends, a private dining room can be reserved. This approach supports personal preference as well as the nutritional guidance provided for residents managing diabetes or other health conditions.
Amenities and services include wheelchair accessibility throughout the building, a barber and beauty shop, movie room, communal gardens, on-site religious services, library, special interest clubs, and scheduled transportation for errands or medical appointments. Pets are allowed. It’s a good idea to check with the community during your visit to see if your pet will be allowed.
