In the fourth quarter of 2023, Memory Lane of Dexter stood out as the third largest nursing home in Stoddard County, according to the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS).

Data shows that the nursing center had a total of 73 beds available, three more than the average in Stoddard County as of the fourth quarter of 2023. They aided an average of 50 residents during that period.

Memory Lane of Dexter boasted an overall rating of 4 from the CMS, which is higher than the average of 2.5 recorded for nursing homes in Missouri.

During the quarter, Crowley Ridge Care Center stood out as the largest nursing home in Stoddard County, with 90 beds available. Cypress Point-Skilled Nursing by Americare came in second place, with 79 beds available.

As of the fourth quarter of 2023, Memory Lane of Dexter has spent a total of $9,750 in one fine and suffered one penalty.

In total, there were seven for-profit nursing homes in Stoddard County, Missouri.

According to US Census data, in 2020, nearly 1 in 6 Americans were aged 65 years or older. Since 1920, the older population skyrocketed from 4.9 million to 55.8 million, reflecting a growth rate of roughly 1,000%, five times higher than the average growth for the overall U.S. population.

A 2021 study suggests that nearly half of this age group, roughly 28 million individuals, may require long-term services and support. Additionally, the study projects that over a third of them may eventually need nursing home care.

“Living a long life is something that many of us want and could get,” said Jesse Slome, executive director of the American Association for Long-Term Care Insurance, an insurance education group. “But when we live a long life, the chances of us needing long-term care increase exponentially. But when you need that type of care, there are limited options.”
