St Francois Manor

St Francois Manor is an assisted living community in Farmington, Missouri, at 1180 Old Jackson Rd. It provides long term care under physician supervision, with services that include skilled nursing care, physical, occupational and speech therapy, dietitian support, behavioral and Alzheimer's care, activities and hospice. The community accepts Medicare, Medicaid, hospice benefits, private payment and most insurance, and maintains two secured, locked units, one for men and one for women. It holds a rating of 2.60.

The community describes itself as founded on the belief that actions speak louder than words, and it has spent its history serving elderly residents. Daily stand-up meetings bring department heads together each morning to raise ideas, needs and concerns. Care is directed by physicians who visit regularly and are on call around the clock, supported by registered nurses, certified nursing assistants and visiting psychiatrists, podiatrists, dentists and hospice providers. Each resident receives a comprehensive care plan, and therapy staff aim to evaluate new residents on their first day and build an individualized treatment plan with the physician. Occupational therapy retrains residents in bathing, dressing, grooming and feeding; physical therapy addresses pain and movement dysfunction; speech therapy evaluates and treats speech, swallowing and cognitive problems after injury or illness. The community also emphasizes resident choice, allowing residents to set their own schedules for meals, bathing, waking and activities, and it reinvests in continual updates and refurbishing of the building. A support services team responds to concerns, and a compliance number is posted in the facility.

The community sits on Old Jackson Rd, about a mile from Roosevelt Elementary School and roughly 0.8 miles from Holy Family Fathers Seminary. Sainte Genevieve Avenue is about 0.9 miles away, Asher Lake and Lois Lake are each about a mile away, and East Karsch Boulevard lies about 1.2 miles from the property.
