Cedarhurst Senior Living of Tesson Heights

Cedarhurst Senior Living of Tesson Heights sits in the Greater St. Louis area and gives older adults a place that feels like home, with buildings that look more like apartments or a nice hotel than a hospital, and has carpeted halls, rooms on the ground floor, and living spaces with kitchenettes and appliances in every unit, so people can make small meals or snacks if they want. The community offers different living options, like Independent Living for those wanting an active, low-maintenance lifestyle, Assisted Living for help with daily needs, Memory Care for residents with Alzheimer's or dementia, and Skilled Nursing for those needing extra medical help, and they even have respite and hospice care, so families have some peace of mind if they need short-term or specialized support. Cedarhurst gives residents and their families ways to ease the move through the PAIR TO PREPARESM program and they try to help everyone settle in comfortably. The staff speak English and are supportive, trained to help with different needs. A nurse is on staff part-time, and skilled care is on-site for anyone needing more than assisted living. The building uses a person-centered approach and includes programs like the LIFE ENRICHMENT PROGRAM, where daily activity plans get made for interests and abilities, with group games, bingo, off-campus trips, music, crafts, socials, and community events like happy hour and ice cream socials. Memory Care and Assisted Living offer support with daily living, and families can join in care planning, group activities, seminars, or meals, which is important to some people who want to stay close and involved. Apartments come in three different styles, with safe features, and weekly housekeeping, laundry, linen service, and a physical therapy facility right on the third floor. There's a library for quiet reading, a salon for haircuts, relaxing or freshening up, a fitness room, movie room, communal dining, and entertainment areas, plus outdoor spaces with a garden, and transportation to shopping and appointments, so residents stay active. The community runs religious services and has wellness programs. Meals follow the CRAFTED BY CEDARHURSTSM plan, so there are options for different diets - heart healthy, brain boost, gluten-free, diabetic, and low-sodium - and you can get breakfast and other meals at almost any time, with chef-prepared, home-style food using seasonal ingredients, and guest meals for visiting friends or family. Residents can bring pets, though small dogs aren't allowed. Family and caregivers can use the Education Center with cost guides, FAQs, resources, and even a pricing calculator, and Cedarhurst keeps loved ones connected with events, seminars, and news. Carpets are throughout, and the Missouri state license for the facility is 13663D. Staff are helpful and try to make every resident feel valued and supported. There are services for healthcare professionals and family caregivers, and the community provides information for those who might want to work there. Cedarhurst offers a satisfaction promise, so residents who move out within 60 days can get a full rent refund if they're unhappy. The facility holds a pet-welcoming policy and plenty of amenities and resources for residents and their families. People staying here have options, support, safety, activities, and a chance to be part of a real community.
