Community Care Center of Lemay is a single-level, 60-bed skilled nursing facility that offers nursing home care, assisted living, and independent living services. The facility recently came under new ownership within the past year and is part of a group called Community Care Centers, Inc, which was established back in 1977. Residents can move between different care levels within the Continuing Care Retirement Community, so if health needs change, the right support's usually available. The facility provides care for seniors who need help with everyday activities like bathing, dressing, and medication, including non-ambulatory care, and there's always nursing staff there for at least 12-16 hours each day.
Residents can choose between private and semi-private rooms, each with their own bathrooms, and there's cable TV, telephones, Wi-Fi, air conditioning, and kitchenettes in the rooms, plus washers and dryers available. Rooms are set up around a centrally located nursing station, so it's easier to get help when needed, and everything's on one floor which makes moving around a little easier for folks. The facility welcomes families and keeps strong connections between residents and loved ones, with resident and family councils meeting regularly to talk about concerns and care quality.
Meals are served restaurant-style all day in a pleasant dining room, with professional chefs preparing food that can be adjusted for allergies or diabetes. There's laundry and dry cleaning service, housekeeping, move-in help, and help for families too. Residents have a lot of chances for socializing with things like arts and crafts, movie nights, game rooms, fitness activities, outdoor programs, gardens, walking paths, and a library, plus scheduled and resident-run activities to keep folks busy and engaged. The interior is tastefully decorated, there's a welcoming lounge and patio, and there's plenty of space for gathering.
Services include wound care, podiatry, help with transfers and wheelchairs, medication management, as well as hospice and respite care. The facility's got strong clinical oversight from a Chief Medical Officer, and safety's a priority, with enhanced screening for staff and visitors and health protocols that follow national and state guidelines, especially related to COVID-19. There are special features for safety like sprinklers and handicap-accessible areas. Community Care Center of Lemay accepts Medicare, Medicaid, private pay, private insurance, and managed care, so there are different payment options. There's transportation provided for residents, and the staff supports both independent living and assisted needs, letting residents choose what works best for their situation. The facility has locations in Missouri and Illinois, with resources to help families find the right place and support across several communities in the region.
