The Emerson at St. Peters offers Independent Living with the option of respite or short-term stays for residents who need a temporary solution after hospitalization or during caregiver absences. Although the community is designed for independent residents, moderate dementia needs are accepted, and a speech therapist is available on site to address communication or swallowing issues. A registered nurse or licensed practical nurse is always on staff, and a nurse is on the premises 24 hours a day to manage medication concerns, monitor chronic conditions, and respond to changes in health status.

Daily support can extend to full assistance with bathing, dressing, eating, and toileting for residents who need that level of care. Transfer help is offered for those who use a walker, rely on a wheelchair, or simply need standby supervision. An on-site podiatrist visits regularly, and the community runs pet-focused programs that integrate animal interaction into residents’ routines. Around-the-clock security personnel and staff members help maintain safety throughout the building and grounds.

Apartments at The Emerson can include features such as wheelchair-accessible showers, in-room climate controls, cable or satellite TV, Wi-Fi, and access to a balcony, patio, or deck, though not every unit offers every feature. The property is pet-friendly, and common areas provide outdoor seating, computer workstations, and convenient parking. Residents who need barrier-free layouts or hand-grab bars can choose floor plans designed for easy mobility.

Meals are served from a set menu that includes options for specific diet modifications or physician-ordered nutrition plans. Staff members can assist with eating when required, ensuring each resident receives adequate nutrition and adheres to dietary guidelines. Scheduled mealtimes promote social interaction, and snacks are available between meals for residents who need additional calories or medication-timed food intake.

Community amenities include resident parking, an exercise room, internet access, and landscaped communal gardens for walking or sitting. On-site religious services, a library, pub-style lounge, indoor pool, billiards table, and postal services add to daily convenience and recreation.
