📖 Our Story
Golden Hearts Adult Day Care was founded with one simple idea: to care for our elders the way we’d care for our own family. We saw a need in our community — especially among Vietnamese seniors — for a space that offers more than just care: a place that feels like home.
Here, elders can socialize in their native language, enjoy traditional meals, participate in familiar games, and celebrate cultural holidays like Lunar New Years and Vu Lan with joy and pride. Our bilingual staff are not only trained in senior care — they’re part of the very community we serve.
As a Missouri Medicaid–funded (MO HealthNet) center, we’re proud to make quality, culturally sensitive care accessible to more families. Whether you’re seeking companionship for your loved one, respite as a caregiver, or a place where culture and compassion meet — Golden Hearts is here for you.
💛 Our Mission
To provide culturally centered, compassionate care for older adults — especially within the Vietnamese community — in a safe, enriching environment that fosters connection, dignity, and joy.
