Recent reviews of Independent Living in Kirkwood, MO
Lutheran Senior Services At Breeze Park in St. Charles, MO
4.0

They are pretty good. It's very clean. The staff is pretty friendly. They have stuff going on for activities, but they told me they take them out at least once a week, they told us they had a bus with a lift, and they don't. They told us when she was there she would be able to eat in any of the dining halls, the one on the independent living side has an open flexible eating schedule but when it came down to it, you have to stay with the assisted living dining room, if that is your section. We liked that it was faith based and that is really what drove the decision to move here.

Veronica Place in Florissant, MO
5.0

this is a first class place. excellent for the amount you pay. the only complaint is the consistency of the food quality. it all depends on who is cooking from day to day

Lutheran Convalescent Home in Webster Groves, MO
5.0

After an extensive search, I realize Lutheran Senior Services' Laclede Groves retirement community in Webster Groves offers the best Life Plan facility in the St. Louis area. I'm experiencing the high level of quality of life and care that all seniors hope to experience in their retirement. All facilities are exceptionally clean, professionally staffed and well maintained. The administration, staff, employees and residents here are friendly and helpful. Applications are accepted from a variety of religious affiliations. You can get as involved as you wish in the many activities and services that are offered to meet all resident's needs. For my money, the many amenities provided at Laclede Groves are unequaled by other similar facilities.
