When considering senior housing for yourself or a loved one, you may be surprised at today’s availability. While communities in the past may have adopted a “one-size-fits-all” mindset in senior living, current communities recognize the value of tailored care and a well-rounded lifestyle. There are now several alternatives, including luxury facilities and lifestyle services that go much beyond basic senior care.
We have taken care of some of the leg work for you by reviewing the top senior facilities in Wyoming. Based on our research and what we hear families like yours need, these are the best of the best. If your city isn’t listed, contact us or check our senior living directory. You’ll find what you need, whether senior housing, assisted living, or a more comprehensive care environment.
Choosing a Wyoming Senior Living Community: Screening Visits
Pick several possibilities off the list and make appointments to visit each one. This is an excellent way to get a first-hand look at the community and note some potential warning signs. For example, are the common living areas pristine? What is the staff like? Are they smiling and friendly, or do they look tired and overworked? Also, what about the residents? Are they sitting in the hallways looking bored or active? Finally, are there plenty of personal touches in the community, like pictures of group activities? It should be evident with a visit whether this is a good choice for you or your loved one.
Ranking The Best Senior Living Facilities in Wyoming
So, how did we determine which Wyoming senior living homes were the best? We gathered evaluations about senior living options in Wyoming from a variety of websites, including Google, Facebook, and others. Reviews aren’t enough, so we double-checked that there were no pending compliance issues or complaints with the Wyoming Department of Health.
Cost is also a consideration for most people, so we factored that in. The average cost of assisted living in Wyoming is $4,169. That is an all-inclusive monthly price, so it covers more than just housing. This would include meals and essential services as well. If you need more comprehensive nursing care, then the average cost of a nursing home facility is $6,996 per month for a semi-private room. For an additional $639 per month, you can have a private room.

What residents and loved ones have to say about Shepherd of the Valley Rehabilitation and Wellness:
One of the CNA’s there who cares for my grandfather, named Sarah, noticed that he didn’t have many pairs of pants that fit him well anymore. She used her own money and got him several pairs of pants and shirts so he would be more comfortable. My grandpa calls her his favorite and says he loves her. I know she takes excellent care of him, and I am so relieved to know he is in such wonderful hands.

Wow, this place is beautiful! It’s not easy sending your loved one to a home, short term or long term, but the staff here is friendly and upbeat, and the building is beautiful! Designed and set with so many great resources (rehabilitation in physical, occupational and speech, recreational activities, beautiful outdoor areas, piano, computer, etc.) this really is a wonderful option. Highly recommend.
