BUT, I can say as a current graduate student of occupational therapy (shameless plug, if you have no idea what that is, ask me!) who has spent a lot of time in various assisted living facilities, this place is GREAT! I got a chance to speak to some of the residents while assessing the facility & the community is beautiful! The facilities are in tip-top shape & the services provided are above average. The staff seem to be very friendly & in-tune with the residents. When I'm 85+ & still kickin', please send me here!

I would highly recommend staying far away from this facility. My 87-year old mother lived there for…read morethe past year, until July when she fell in her bathroom and broke her hip. She fell at 2am on a Sunday. The facility is supposed to check on their residents by 9 am. No one checked on my mother that day at all. Infuriating. I talk with mother usually every Sunday so when I didn't hear back from her by Monday morning, I called Crestview to do a wellness check. Tori said she went to check on mom and said that mom was just tired but okay. So it took me calling to get them to check on her. Turns out that later in the day, another gal named Lisa, found my mom at 3pm still lying on the bathroom floor, in pain. She called 911 and my mom was taken to the hospital - after lying on the floor for 37 hours. So much for good care. We found a new place for mom and when I went to clean our mom's apt at Crestview last week, the director Christina asked to speak to me. She denied that we had left her any voice messages and said she didn't receive any - from myself, my aunt and also mom's social worker. Christina insisted we give a written 30-day notice and that mom has to pay for September rent despite her move being involuntary, as she can no longer live independently. I asked Christina if there was any way we could reach an agreement since we are not a litigious family, but she was unwilling to budge at all. OH, P.S. The State of Missouri is now investigating them for the elder abuse.

Wonderful place! Bright and cheery. Very pleasant activities, including exercise class. My mom has…read morebeen here for three and a half years. Great staff and housekeepers and maintenance. We have used a few services that you pay for such as Senior Helpers when she had a wound that needed daily tending and that was very helpful and reassuring. Also the on-site salon for haircuts and pedicures is convenient. One huge downside to caution about is that meals are not served at all on Sunday nights. This has been burdensome for our family and other residents have grumbled about this repeatedly. They get used to not cooking and then there is no meal and families are not always able to help. So then it's cold leftovers or PBJ. But that is the only down side, other than that, it's a wonderful place and we would recommend it!

Words cannot describe my gratitude to this compassionate and skilled group of elder care professionals. They went the extra mile more times than I can count, including checking on my dad after hours when he didn't answer his phone and I was worried; advocating for him when he was hospitalized during COVID-19; and overseeing a team of 24/7 caregivers to ensure my father could age in place at home. On top of all of this, my father looked forward to their visits and considered them "friends." As a long-distance family caregiver, I was not able to be there all of the time for my dad, but Diane, Terri, Mar, Maggie, and everyone at The Next Step was incredibly responsive and supportive throughout our work together.
