10 Best Assisted Living Facilities in Walnut Grove, MO

They have been wonderful, my mother in law can be difficult at times. The staff has handled everything wonderfully with grace and are very caring. Making it much easier for our family to know that she is in great hands and safe.

This was not an easy decision to make. Not at all. We cared for my mother for a few years at home but wandering in the middle of the night started and it became a safety issue for my mother. Having toured several facilities in the Springfield Missouri area, both my sister and I agreed that the Arbors at Lakewood stood out among their peers. Since my mothers arrival, I can't express how reassured I am that we made the right choice. This provides me as much peace as this difficult decision can. If you have a loved one who suffers from Alzheimer's/Dementia I highly recommend this facility and their genuinely caring staff. From administration to activities and meals and their flexible "Best Friends" approach.

One of the reasons why I chose this facility for my Mother is because it is a low capacity community with only 12 residents and it does not feel institutionalized. The staff members themselves are open, warm, and communicate with me very well. They do offer a lot of activities like puzzles, books on tape, and a radio to listen to. The meals are at the same time every day and they have a specified dining hall. The facility itself is kept up with very well and it has a family feel. It’s always clean here and it looks like a home. It is an older building and they could get a little more creative with the colors. I would recommend this facility to other families.
