Village Center Care of Wentzville offers assisted-living care for residents who need day-to-day help yet want to maintain as much independence as possible. Licensed staff coordinate closely with the community’s on-site physician service, diabetes management program, and speech therapy team to develop individualized care plans. Because the residence focuses on traditional assisted living, it does not market a dedicated dementia program.

Additional health resources are housed inside the secured community, minimizing the need for outside appointments. A nurse team manages medication, monitors chronic conditions such as diabetes, and arranges visits with dentists, podiatrists, and vision specialists who come to the building. Physical and occupational therapists are available for strength, mobility, and rehabilitation goals. Staff can provide some hands-on help with bathing and dressing, while residents who are able handle their own eating and toileting. Emergency response systems and 24-hour oversight are in place for safety.

Living options range from standard rooms to larger units, some of which include cable TV connections, in-unit washers and dryers, and parking spaces. Housekeeping is provided, and residents have access to landscaped grounds and outdoor sitting areas. Because floor plans vary, not every accommodation contains all listed features, so prospective residents should review specific layouts during a tour.

The dining program prepares three daily meals on site, with menus that can be adjusted for low-sodium, gluten-free, kosher, vegetarian, and other dietary requirements. Healthy snacks are available between meals, and the kitchen can accommodate most allergen requests when notified in advance.

Residents can spend downtime in the activity center, take part in scheduled social outings, or simply enjoy independent time outdoors on the property.
