The Gables at Brady Circle is a cozy community, a small group of bungalows that are home to 6-8 residents each. They have 24/7 in-house coverage by caring nursing staff to assist mom when she needs. I'm impressed with this ratio. It is a very clean and newer facility. Mom has been there 3+ months now, and I'm thankful for the attentiveness they give her and the peace of mind it provides us knowing she is in a safe environment, well fed and, monitored for those times we cannot be there. We can even buy her some of her favorite foods and treats to keep in the house kitchen for when she wants it. As her memory and condition change, the aides update me regularly. I do wish there was a main house phone to reach staff rether than depending on their personal cell phones. The furnished private rooms are on the smaller side with the intention of encouraging residents to spend more time together, socializing in the common spaces. (living room/ dining room). We opted for a room with a private bath and also to use moms own furniture, which made the transition a little easier and things seem more familiar. Everything is included in one price, which is nice for budgeting. We have had some issues getting moms special hearing impaired phone connected. The owner, Ryan, has been responsive with updates, and it is scheduled for install this week. I can call or text him anytime with questions or issues. There is a lovely outside space with a picnic shelter for the nicer days, when residents can visit with their families or they can have a community meal or activity.<br><br>I'm so glad we found the Gables for mom. I visited many other larger facilities in St Louis and St Charles County and they all had lots of elevators and a maze of hallways to find her room or where to go to eat. They were not conducive to someone with memory issues who was still independently mobile. This is a comfortable living space; a home where she has made friend with staff and residents, as have we.
