February is National Senior Independence Month, a time to celebrate older adults and support them as valuable members of their communities. 🤝

At the Chateau Girardeau, our goal is to support our residents’ independence as much and for as long as possible. Whether that’s by providing home maintenance for our independent living residents or by ensuring that our memory care residents receive the best care possible, we’re always here for our seniors—during this month and all the rest, too. 😉
