Villages of St. Peters Memory Care is a dedicated memory-care community designed for individuals living with Alzheimer’s disease or other forms of dementia. Licensed nurses and care staff are on-site around the clock to monitor health, manage medications, and provide prompt assistance with daily tasks. Families who need a temporary solution can arrange a respite or short-term stay, receiving the same level of supervision and support as long-term residents. The team is trained to recognize and respond to diabetes-related needs, including blood-glucose monitoring, insulin administration, and diet oversight.
Beyond the clinical scope, the community maintains a secured environment to reduce exit-seeking and wandering risks, with controlled access points and enclosed outdoor areas. Care plans are personalized after an assessment and are reviewed regularly with input from physicians, pharmacy partners, and family members. Assistance with bathing, dressing, grooming, and mobility is delivered according to resident preference and ability, while routine health checks help identify changes that may require intervention. Transportation can be arranged for outside medical appointments, and an emergency call system links every resident to staff within moments.
Apartments and suites vary in layout and do not all contain the same features, but options may include private baths, garden views, ground-floor access, wheelchair-accessible showers, and in-unit climate control. Cable or satellite television and Wi-Fi are available, and common areas such as an indoor atrium, ballroom, central fireplace lounge, TV room, billiards lounge, and piano space offer additional places to spend time with visitors or neighbors. Several units are specifically designed for mobility aids, and the campus includes both indoor and outdoor common areas for year-round use.
Residents receive three daily meals plus snacks, prepared to align with individual nutritional needs and, when necessary, diabetic meal plans. A full-service café or bistro is open for lighter fare, while a private dining room is set aside for family gatherings or special occasions. Cookouts and picnics are scheduled when weather allows, giving residents a change of scenery and menu variety. Guest meals can be arranged through the front desk so visitors can dine alongside their loved ones.
Daily life is supported by a range of structured and spontaneous activities. On-site options include art classes, trivia games, sensory-based and reminiscence programs, baking through the cooking club, stretching sessions, walking and gardening clubs with raised beds, and regularly scheduled holiday and birthday parties. Live music, theater or dance performances, men’s club meetings, dances, and community outings provide additional engagement. Staff coordinate day trips and facilitate small-group gatherings so residents have consistent opportunities for social interaction and cognitive stimulation.
