St. John's United - The Crossings

St. John's United - The Crossings in Laurel, Montana, serves seniors who want independent living, supportive living, memory care, or care at home, and the place really makes things simple for folks who want some help but also like to stay independent, because you'll see certified nursing staff along with 24-hour CNAs keeping an eye on things, checking vitals, helping during emergencies with a 24-hour Lifeline alert system, which is always on, and the staff's there if you ever need extra care down the line since residents get priority access to St. John's United's full care services, forming a whole support system for changing needs. Residents live in private apartments with their own bathrooms, kitchenettes with a fridge, sink, and microwave, plus phone, cable, Wi-Fi, individual climate controls, and a 24-hour alert system, and they'll get weekly housekeeping, linen services, and help whenever maintenance is needed-two meals a day get served family-style in big dining rooms too, which helps everyone meet up and enjoy the company, and if you'd rather cook a little something yourself, small kitchens allow for that. Social life here feels lively, with group activities, spiritual gatherings in the chapel that doubles as a meeting space, plus rooms for billiards, recreation, a woodshop, and a cozy library-you'll also find a fitness center, jacuzzi, and an endless pool, so exercise or just relaxing becomes part of the day. Residents can use a beauty salon and barbershop on site, walk around the green lawns or along well-kept paths, and take the shuttle to appointments or outings a few times a week, so you don't need to worry about getting out and about, and the grounds give a safe place to stretch your legs. Medical support includes an in-house clinic for meeting one-on-one with a doctor or nurse, and when specialized care's needed, the facility offers enhanced living, memory care, hospice services, skilled nursing, rehab, and healthcare at home, including Medicare-certified care. There are programs like the GUIDE Program and C.A.R.E.S. for Families & Youth, as well as things like general counseling, public wellness classes, pharmacy service, adoption support, pregnancy help, spiritual care, outpatient therapy, and even respite care for short-term recovery or for families who need a break. For those wanting more privacy, patio homes and seven different large apartment layouts are available, where people can keep to their own schedules but join community activities if they wish, and Richardson Cottage gives care for those who need enhanced assisted living or memory care in a home-like setting. It's generally a tight-knit setting where the staff takes pride in helping residents stay active and well, and while some folks need more assistance, plenty of residents lead independent lives with options to join in exercise, social, or spiritual programs as much or as little as they'd like. St. John's United - The Crossings keeps a high standard by offering a range of services under one roof, so long-term needs are met in a way that feels personal and straightforward-people here find support for changing health, chances to connect with others, and practical amenities that help make daily life easier.
