Deciding on the right senior living community for your loved ones can be a challenging decision. When it comes to St. Louis, The Gatesworth stands out for more than its award-winning facilities. It also offers peace of mind through a full continuum of care.
The Gatesworth has four locations, including three on its main campus and one in Creve Coeur at Parc Provence. It provides a range of living options tailored to residents’ evolving needs, all under local ownership that is committed to the community.

Care That Feels the Same, Wherever You Go
What truly sets The Gatesworth apart is consistency. “Our culture is the same across all of our communities,” says chief revenue officer Patrick Leonard. “Families know that no matter which location they choose, they’ll experience care, skilled staff, and a team that’s deeply invested in the wellbeing of residents.”
Local leadership plays a critical role in this approach. Because owners are on-site and accessible, families never have to navigate a distant corporate office. “If there’s ever an issue, you can pick up the phone and speak directly with someone empowered to address it,” Leonard explains. “That accessibility offers a level of reassurance that’s rare in senior living.”
Continuum of Care
The Gatesworth’s communities are designed to accommodate residents through every stage of aging. This includes independent living, assisted living, memory care, and skilled nursing. The campuses provide support that evolves with each resident’s needs. Families can feel confident knowing that as health or mobility changes, care can transition without disrupting daily life or the sense of community.
“Our goal is always to help families find the right fit for their loved ones,” Leonard says. “Even if a family decides one community isn’t the best match, we’re happy to guide them toward a solution that works elsewhere. It’s about what’s right for the resident, not just filling a room.”
