Recent reviews for independent living in Edwardsville

Promenade Senior Living in Richmond Heights, MO

5.0
We were impressed with everything. My mother in law felt the menu options were limited, but I think at the time, occupancy was low, so that may have affected it. I can't really say about activities, because she wasn't there for very long until she had to be moved to skilled nursing.

St. Andrew's Assisted Living of Bridgeton

They always reassure when calling that nothing's urgent, but just wanting to share information. It's comforting to know my Dad is in a ...
