Heritage Village in Platte City, MO offers both Assisted Living and Residential Care Home levels of service, giving residents access to care that adjusts as needs change. The community is equipped to manage special diets and multiple levels of diabetic care, including oral medications, injections, and sliding-scale monitoring. Residents with mild dementia are welcome and receive care designed to maintain safety and routine. On-site podiatry visits reduce the need for outside appointments and keep foot health issues from becoming larger medical problems.
Care delivery is backed by an RN or LPN on staff and a nurse on call 24 hours a day. All team members undergo background checks, and an awake night shift is in place. Pull-cord alerts, alarmed doors, fenced outdoor areas, and continuous staff presence maintain security. Residents who need help with bathing, dressing, eating, or toileting receive some physical assistance, and transfer support includes standby help, one-person assists, and accommodation for walkers and wheelchairs.
Private suites are available, some with their own bathrooms, independent temperature controls, and the option to paint or decorate the space. Because floor plans vary, not every accommodation has all of these features, so families should confirm availability during a tour.
Dining follows a set menu prepared to meet nutritional guidelines, with snacks offered between meals. Dietary modifications are coordinated with the nursing and dietary teams to support residents who require low-sugar, low-sodium, or other medically directed meal plans.
Residents have access to parking, outdoor smoking areas, wheelchair-accessible common spaces, a barber and beauty shop, a movie room, communal gardens, and shaded patios. Regular visits from a consulting psychiatrist, dietitian, audiologist, and physician complement in-house therapies, x-ray services, and special diet accommodations. Weekly laundry, weekly housekeeping, bathroom safety features, and a daily activity program are standard. Pets are allowed; it’s a good idea to check with the community during your visit to see if your pet will be allowed.
