About This Community

Often the mental demands of those struggling with Alzheimer's disease can take over the emotional needs. But at JEA Senior Living, we keep the emotional needs and feelings of your loved one at the very center of what we do.

Our exclusive Meaningful Moments® program is specifically designed to help meet the needs of those Residents with memory loss. We begin by discovering the life story of each individual's likes, dislikes and cherished memories. By adding details and preferences from each Resident's life story into their day, we can build comfort and a sense of meaning for each individual Resident. The result is a familiar atmosphere for your loved one.

Our Residents have access to a whole host of amenities and programming options to help keep them active and engaged in daily life.

There are excursions to restaurants and shopping, arts and crafts classes, movie nights and many chances for family and holiday celebrations. Our Meaningful Moments® program, paired with our active and engaged staff members at JEA Senior Living, brings together the very best Alzheimer's care.

I like Mill Creek Alzheimer's Special Care Center. It was nice. But I didn't like the layout because you had to share a room. I didn't care for that part. They had single rooms, but they didn't have any available at the time. I saw the double room, and it wouldn't be for my situation right now. My mother wouldn't do well in a shared room. But the place was clean. It reminded me more of a nursing home than the other place did. The staff who took us around was very helpful and very attentive.

My father stayed at Mill Creek Alzheimer's Special Care Center for respite care. It was fine when he was there, the staff was fine, and it was very clean. They were very helpful. He did not complain about the food. It's not outrageously expensive, and they were in the middle of remodelling.

My family and I have found Mill Creek to be a loving and caring facility not only for the resident with Alzheimer's but the caregivers as well. The staff all seem to have great attitudes in dealing with the residents. They offer lots of varied activities and gently encourage the residents to participate without forcing them. They bring in therapy animals and other types of entertainment to keep residents interest. The staff have also been very helpful in showing us new ways of coping with the stress of caregiving. Residents are offered opportunities to take trips outside the facility on Mill Creek's own bus. They have separate dining rooms so those who need help eating can get more attention. The food is excellent , all three meals and snacks are available each morning and afternoon. Our family also found Mill Creek to be the most economical of the facilities in Springfield.

Mill Creek was very nice. It was a well-run facility with new furniture. The place had that new, nice, and clean look. The only thing wrong with it from my point of view was that they didn't offer total assistance. They had a plan, and it was working fine for them.

I visited Mill Creek Alzheimer's Special Care. The people were very welcoming and very friendly. If my mom was maybe a little bit more worse than her Alzheimer's was right now, I would very much consider this place. I might use it in the future. They had mostly rooms for two people like a hotel room, though a little bigger than that. It was a very nice place. It was clean. The staff was super friendly. They had a lot of stuff going on for the residents.
