Assisted Living in Kirkwood

Kirkwood is a historic, central suburb of St. Louis County, Missouri.  This charming community offers neighborhoods and employment opportunities for individuals and families of all backgrounds.

The railroad town is full of turn-of-the-century homes and buildings, many of which still serve the city’s thriving business community. Known for its down-home charm and city pride, Kirkwood has earned a reputation as a premier location for raising a family, and as a hotbed for businesses both large and small. It’s also a great place to join a thriving senior living community.

McKnight Place is centrally located just minutes from Kirkwood, Missouri. Our gorgeous assisted living community, located on the campus of our sister community, The Gatesworth, provides easy access to shopping, dining, places of worship, major roadways, and more for your loved one.

Quality Means Peace of Mind

McKnight Place has served St. Louis seniors for over 30 years by providing impressive independent living and assisted living facilities, beautiful surroundings, and uncompromised service. Who said senior housing has to be bland? Our residents enjoy gourmet meals in a spacious restaurant-style dining room, for starters. Your family members will appreciate the variety of care options and living options we offer, so they’ll be able to choose floor plans and more to suit their taste. We also provide our residents abundant options to participate in daily activities tailored to each person’s unique interests.

Our senior care staff also personalizes care services based on each resident’s needs. For example, our Alzheimer and dementia staff gracefully help residents that require assistance with their activities of daily living (ADLs), like medication management and personal care needs. Such procedures can help maintain your loved one’s dignity and may improve their quality of life.

Our local owners set the standard for quality senior living and wellness. We don’t build nursing homes; we have built a long-term care community worthy of our own friends and family – selecting every detail, every healthy meal, and every activity with care. That’s why St. Louisans trust us for service and excellence.
