    Great social life, medical caveat

    I live here and mostly love it - the staff are warm and helpful, the dining is excellent, and there are nonstop activities and resort-style amenities (pool, salon, library, shuttle, ice cream bar). My apartment is roomy with kitchen options, weekly housekeeping and laundry included, and maintenance is prompt; the campus is clean and well kept. My main cautions: staffing can be thin, care and responsiveness aren't always consistent, and there have been management/staff issues reported. Overall great for social life, food, and comfort - but if you need guaranteed high-level medical attention, I'd look closely.

    About Garden Villas South

    Garden Villas South sits on Tesson Ferry Road in South St. Louis County and is part of the Delmar Gardens Family, which has over 55 years of senior care experience, so you can expect they know what they're doing. The community offers independent living, assisted living, and memory care, with skilled nursing and rehab on campus, so if someone's health changes, they don't have to move far. They run a wellness program, provide scheduled transportation for things like appointments or shopping, and have 24-hour concierge support. Apartments come in different sizes like studios, one-bedrooms, and two-bedrooms, fully furnished or with kitchens if someone enjoys cooking their own meals. Some apartments even have big closets and storage lockers, which can be handy. Every day, the kitchen prepares three meals under the direction of an Executive Chef, and they serve dinner in the dining room as part of the main package, or extra meal options can be added.

    Amenities include an indoor swimming pool and hot tub, putting green, fitness room, billiard and game room, movie theater, library, computer lab, and a spa or wellness room, so there's plenty to do if someone feels up for it. There's valet parking, reserved spaces, snow removal from cars, and even grocery and package delivery, which makes day-to-day life easier. Housekeeping is weekly, with linen and laundry services thrown in, and you get access to a full-service bank right on site if needed. The staff will help with bathing, grooming, medication reminders, and more, and there are licensed nurses and medication aides-especially important for folks who need extra monitoring. An emergency alert system goes throughout the community and apartments.

    Social, educational, and cultural programs fill the calendar, and the activity schedule is meant to keep people engaged, with things like outings, music programs, art classes, and movie nights. For those who need more help, memory care uses things like validation and aroma therapy, Montessori methods, and specially trained staff for Alzheimer's and dementia. Assisted living services are available for help with daily living, and there's also on-site home care and private duty support if needed. Families can make use of support resources for senior care planning, insurance, and benefits, and if someone is considering a move, the community offers a complimentary three-night stay. The grounds have accessible walking paths, secure environments for residents who need them, and even pet-friendly options. All utilities except phone are paid, and Wi-Fi, cable, air conditioning, and private bathrooms are standard in apartments. Garden Villas South was built with a focus on comfort, safety, and providing a maintenance-free lifestyle, so people can spend time on things that matter to them.
