- KRKennedy ReinkeFeb 24, 20265.0Saint Therese at St. Mary of the Woods is truly a wonderful community. From the moment you walk in, you feel welcomed by a team that is professional, compassionate, and genuinely dedicated to the well-being of every resident. The administrator, Michael, is kind, and it’s clear he cares deeply about maintaining such a positive environment. That said, Amanda, the HR Manager, truly stands out. She is responsive, thoughtful, and goes above and beyond to ensure both residents and staff feel supported and valued. Her warmth and professionalism make a lasting impression. The facility itself is beautiful, clean, and thoughtfully designed. The rooms are bright and comfortable, and the common areas are always well maintained. Most importantly, there is a strong sense of dignity, respect, and community throughout. We have complete peace of mind knowing our loved one is in such capable and compassionate hands. Highly recommend!
- ABAlicia BirFeb 11, 20262.0When this was run by St. Mary of the Woods it was a lovely place. When St. Therese took over in December 2024 it went downhill fast. The people who work there are so nice and very compasionate, however, the people who took over and are running the facility now are not so great. The food is not the best quality and some of the things that were once included in the already high price to live there are now an extra expense. They nickle and dime the people who live there. Not what I would call a "Christian, non-profit" way to run things. If you are in "assisted living" they now want to charge for the food to be delivered. If your are unable to get to the dining room to get your food because you need assistance, how is it OK to charge a fee to deliver the food to these people? I will agee it is a beautiful facility and the grounds are very nice. There are some nice amenities like a beauty salon, a chapel and a Bistro. The Bistro used to be very nice but now the food is not that great and half the time there is nothing in the coolers. I was floored when they charged $3 for one banana. They may put on a nice show when you tour the facility but I say beware. Hopefully, one day it will go back to being run the way St. Mary of the Woods ran it.

How is memory care different than traditional long term care?
The first thing you’ll notice is the secured entry to Saint Therese memory care neighborhoods, encompassed outdoor spaces and that the safety of all our residents is top priority.
Just like within traditional long-term care, employees serve memory care neighborhoods 24/7 but the provided care is highly personalized and specialized—and that requires a few more helping hands. Saint Therese memory care employees receive ongoing training and education so each are prepared to appropriately respond to dementia-related symptoms like agitation, wandering or sundowning.
In addition, scheduled memory care activities and events are designed to engage, stimulate and socialize residents living with moderate to late-stage dementia.
How do I know if my loved one needs memory care?
As we age, we become more forgetful. Mild change is a normal part of the aging process. When memory loss is not manageable by making simple concessions like forming lists, keeping a calendar or retracing steps, there may be cause for concern.
If you notice a loved one’s well-being is potentially in jeopardy—unpaid bills piling up, he or she gets lost behind the wheel or you’ve considered unhooking the stove —give us a call.
When my loved one resides in your secured memory care neighborhood, can I pick them up for a day trip or off site family event?
Absolutely. A residency at Saint Therese is designed to ensure you have more opportunities to socialize and connect with your loved one. Whereas there are some reasonable guidelines we ask family members to consider, we encourage loved ones to remain an active source of support and in our residents’ lives.
I am caring for my loved one at home. Do you offer caregivers any resources?
We’re here for you. We have a number of resources you can benefit from. Saint Therese has support groups as well as a robust pastoral care program available to you for free.
If you’re considering senior living as the next chapter, our respite care is offered in our residences for up to four weeks. This short-term stay supports caregiver vacations, assists in transitions to a new lifestyle as a member of a Saint Therese community, and acts as a perfect “trial run” to ensure Saint Therese senior living is the best next step.
What kind of innovative dementia / memory care programs do you offer?
We incorporate personalized programs, amenities and activities catered specifically to residents living with dementia-related diseases, such as:
Music and Memory© programming with furnished iPads and iPods
Therapeutic Serenity Babies
Reminiscence therapy
Music therapy
Décor & design strategies like limiting use of mirrors, incorporating natural light & removing loud patterns
Ongoing dementia care training for Saint Therese employees & volunteers
Aromatherapy
Healing & memory gardens

Storytelling

Can my loved one choose an apartments now and then later move into the secured memory care neighborhood when their dementia progresses?
Yes. That’s exactly why Saint Therese offers a continuum of care. Saint Therese has memory care for seniors who prefer a private apartment setting. Those living with early to moderate-stages of dementia find apartment living provides freedom to do more every day in a worry-free setting.
Care center neighborhoods provide individuals with moderate to late-stage dementia the benefit of comfortable living space tailored to meet every day needs. When accompanied by compassionate 24/7 care, our residents are empowered to engage in activities designed to enhance well-being and their families benefit from knowing their loved one is thriving in a secured environment.
