Wheat Country Estate is an excellent assisted living community in Chester, Montana. It is within charming Liberty County which is part of the Treasure State.
Wheat Country Estate is a modern 18-bed facility where care services are provided 24 hours a day in accordance with the individual needs of the residents. Assistance with personal care includes supervision in self-medication and similar routine activities of daily living.
People come to live with us for different reasons. The most common reasons is that they are now alone, having lost their spouse, and are tired of living alone. Some are not eating very well and feel lonely. Most are realizing that they are no longer able to take care of their ADLs (Activities of Daily Living) without help and they don’t want to burden their families with these details.
Medication management is one big reason that folks like living here. Our residents are given their medications (set up by a licensed nurse) by our qualified staff at the proper times, as ordered by their medical provider. They never have to worry about getting their medications on time, ordering refills or running out of their medications.
Most of our residents require some help with bathing (getting in and out of the bathtub or shower safely) and dressing, such as putting on their socks and shoes. Nearly all of our residents no longer want the responsibility of preparing a balanced meal, not to mention shopping for groceries and cleaning up the kitchen afterward. We also provide residents with laundry and housekeeping services. When living here, you never have to clean your room, do yard work, mow the lawn, or shovel snow!
When it comes to feeling at home, there is no time like meal time. It is pleasant to enjoy good food with your friends and neighbors. When it’s time to eat, we want it to be special. Your food will be fresh, homemade and tasty. We will match the menus to the favorite meals of the community and keep you coming back for more. Three times each day we will set the dining room table for you! Between meals and before bedtime you are welcome to healthy snacks and beverages from the kitchen.
Housekeeping, laundry and maintenance services are also provided. Activities are organized by the facility staff and are planned to meet the interests of the residents. Specific health and financial criteria must be met for residency.
Activities are available and geared to the interests of the residents. Many enjoy card or board games, bunko, crafts, movies, Bingo or brain games. In the summer we enjoy gardening and caring for beautiful flowers and excursions in the golf cart.
Organized activities take place seven days a week including a Restorative Exercise Program and Mind Games. These all help to maintain and promote physical and mental function.
Visitors are always welcome and encouraged to participate in the life of their special person.
