American House Wildwood Village sits in the heart of Wildwood and offers a variety of living options for people aged 55 and older, and there's plenty to choose from, like independent living, assisted living, memory care, and short-term respite stays too, so you can pick what suits your needs best. This place has an entry fee of $2,150 and is pet friendly, which is always a good thing for folks who want to bring their companion along. The buildings have studio, one-bedroom, and two-bedroom apartments, some with big kitchens and bathrooms, and in memory care you can pick private or shared rooms and there's a memory display area right outside each door so folks can show photos or mementos, and you'll see curated artwork around that features nature or local places. You'll find common spaces like balconies, a library, game rooms, a fireplace, bistro, beauty salon, and there's postal services and housekeeping to keep things comfortable.
The staff includes licensed nurses and certified caregivers, with nurses available day and night for oversight, wellness checks, medication support, and help with things like bathing, dressing, or meals. Care levels cover skilled nursing, independent living, assistance with daily activities, and specialized Alzheimer's and memory care, with an Alzheimer's support group available for families. The Virtue Memory Care Neighborhood focuses on helping residents thrive by supporting their minds, bodies, and spirits, and the rooms and common spaces are all designed for safety, comfort, and accessibility, including built-in alert systems and features for handicap access, and pets are allowed. Home care services are available, with aides providing companionship and help for those who'd rather stay in their own residence.
American House Wildwood Village makes transportation available for residents, so whether you need to head to appointments, shopping, or catch a bus for a group outing, you don't have to worry about getting around. There's a wide range of activities, thanks to the Lifestyle Enrichment team-live music, exercise and wellness classes, parties, arts and crafts studio, spiritual services, and even a fitness center to keep folks active, plus there's escorts available to help residents get to events and meals. The Dining Services team serves up three meals every day, restaurant-style or bistro options, with menus made from scratch, and a registered dietitian oversees meal planning to meet special dietary needs, and utilities are all included except for the phone.
Residents can use transportation for errands or medical appointments, and there's a 24-hour emergency response system, too. The environment is pleasant, with landcaped outdoor spaces for walks, community balconies for leisure, and thoughtfully designed common areas that feel welcoming. Wildwood Village stands out because it combines different kinds of care and flexible services under one roof, so if needs change, folks can stay without having to move, and there's always a connection with Missouri Health Care Association and a focus on quality and compliance. The community's website also has print and share links and a Care Finder tool for families who want to look up specific programs or information, including CNA training, and there's representation from sponsors like Medline and Guardian Pharmacy. All these features create a stable, supportive environment aimed at making daily life easier and more enjoyable for seniors, while giving their families peace of mind about quality of care and safety.
