Beehive Homes of St. George

Beehive Homes of St. George is a dedicated dementia-care home with nine secured rooms at 1555 West 1170 North in northwest St. George, Utah. Memory care here isn't a wing inside a larger assisted-living building; it is the entire operating model, exclusively for residents with Alzheimer's, vascular dementia, or related conditions. Inside southwest Utah's senior-care market, where most dementia care runs as part of a bigger campus, a single-license 9-bed dementia home is rare.

The property opened in 1997, giving the staff almost three decades of dementia-specific operating experience at this address. Caregiver training emphasizes the things that matter at advanced cognitive stages: communication adapted to memory loss, sensory engagement throughout the day, and behavior support for agitation or confusion. With only nine residents in the home, the team knows each person's morning patterns, food preferences, family history, and triggers personally.

Day-to-day, the staff handles personal hygiene, transfers, medication delivery, and meal pacing across continuous shift coverage. Respite stays accommodate families needing short-term coverage, the kitchen prepares three meals daily, with snack access throughout. Meal patterns are tuned for residents whose cognitive change makes familiar foods and steady timing important. Activities sit at the household scale, with sensory-engagement programming, predictable routines, and family events anchoring the calendar.

Monthly pricing runs $4,500 to $5,000 on an all-inclusive structure, the community is private-pay (no Medicaid is contracted here) and pets cannot move in. For location, Dixie Regional Medical Center is 8 minutes south via Bluff Street for clinical care; Cedar City Hospital reaches in 50 minutes north. Snow Canyon Parkway and Snow Canyon State Park sit just outside the door for visiting families combining their stop with Utah outdoor time.

The 1170 North block stays residential and quiet. Behind the brand sits Beehive Homes, an Idaho-founded franchise from 1987 with 200-plus small-home senior locations across the country. Each location holds its own resident count under shared training and dietary baselines. What makes this St. George address distinct in the broader brand lineup is the 9-bed single-license dementia-care setup, which is among the smallest dedicated memory-care formats anywhere in Utah.
