About Lakewood Senior Living

Welcome to Lakewood Senior Living

For those needing assistance with daily living, or dealing with memory loss, Lakewood Senior Living, an Americare Community in Springfield, Missouri, is an outstanding choice. Our assisted living and memory care lifestyle options feature innovative programs and services that welcome, engage, and encourage independence. It’s more than a pledge. It’s experience that matters.

Senior Living Options

Your needs are unique. At Lakewood Senior Living in Springfield, Missouri, we have built a tradition of focusing on each person in our community, with dining, events, activities, and wellness programs that set our assisted living and memory care apart.

Assisted Living

If you find yourself in need of assistance with bathing, dressing or medication management, we can help. Our assisted living community encourages independence while providing the essential care services you need to continue living a happy and healthy life. This proactive approach to assisted living takes into account the seven dimensions of wellness: social, emotional, spiritual, environmental, occupational, intellectual and physical.

Memory Care

For those living with Alzheimer’s disease or memory loss, every day presents a new challenge. At Lakewood Senior Living, our Best Friends™ approach to memory care leverages the power of friendship – respect, empathy, support, trust, and humor – to help your loved one live comfortably.

Respite

Respite stays are ideal for caregivers in need of a break or seniors recovering from surgery or hospitalization. Offering full-service, short-term care, we make it easy for you to get the help you need.

Hospice

We help residents access the Medicare-covered services for which they may be eligible. Our commitment to helping seniors age in place includes coordinating palliative care and end-of-life services through hospice. Our care partners join with hospice providers to create a circle of support for our residents and their loved ones.

Adult Day Club

You don’t have to commit to our community full-time to reap the benefits of our services. We offer adult day club to seniors and their caregivers with professional short-term care options. Day guests enjoy a welcoming place with all the comforts of home, while caregivers enjoy much-needed time away for work or rest. Simply reach out to our team to complete your enrollment, and we’ll be happy to welcome you or your loved one with just a few hours’ notice.

Home Health Care

Home health care for skilled nursing visits includes diabetic teaching, post-surgery wound care, and new device or appliance instruction. This service is ideal for seniors transitioning back into assisted living after a hospital visit or while recovering from an illness or injury. We work with community home health providers to help you secure home health care under your Medicare benefits.

Rehabilitation

Rehabilitation includes physical, occupational and speech therapy following hospitalization or a short-term inpatient rehabilitation stay. Therapy can continue right here at Lakewood Senior Living under the Medicare Part B program.

My MIL moved to Lakewood in June and has been so very happy with her new living arrangements. Lakewood associates are absolutely top notch and are always there to assist both the residents and the family. What attracted us to Lakewood was the friendly atmosphere that you encountered as soon as you opened the door. Lakewood has a very pleasant feel and is bright which is so nice as it makes you happy. It doesn’t have any institutional smell, it smells like home. My MIL enjoys all of the activities and outings that the residents get to participate in. As the family the best parts are residents are safe and happy with their new home and new friends, and that take so much stress off of having aging love ones
