Village Care Center sits in Maryville, MO, and folks there call it "the Little Home With A Big Heart" because it's focused on caring for each person as an individual, supporting their physical, emotional, and spiritual wellness. The place offers both assisted living and skilled nursing care, with licensed nurses and certified aides around the clock for help with everything from bathing and dressing to medication and hygiene. People living here get help with daily needs like getting around, eating, or transferring from bed to chair, and the staff also coordinate closely with healthcare providers outside the center when needed.
Rooms here come furnished, each with a telephone, and the building's made to be safe and comfortable, with emergency alert systems throughout, wheelchair accessible spaces, and indoor and outdoor common areas for social time or quiet relaxation. Folks can enjoy walks on garden paths or join in organized events like bingo, crafts, exercise classes, Bible study, music therapy, and movie nights, and there's a devotional program along with church services for those who wish. Village Care Center serves meals in a dining room or with all-day options, offering special diets to meet needs like diabetes or food allergies, and they also provide nutritional counseling. The center takes care of housecleaning and laundry, and transportation is available not only for doctor visits but also for scheduled shopping trips or group outings.
For those needing rehab, the center offers physical, occupational, and speech therapy, along with long-term care and special Alzheimer's and Dementia support in dedicated units. People who can't walk or need more advanced care can also rely on staff for non-ambulatory care and 24-hour supervision. Village Care Center has been set up to be a steady place where families know their loved ones get the help they need, whether it's joining a game, enjoying music, or spending time with neighbors, and the programs are run with attention to each person's story. The administrator, Katie Constant, oversees things so that people are comfortable and well looked after, and everyone's encouraged to take part in community life or just relax in the gardens when they want.
