LOCALLY OWNED AND OPERATED
When our ownership group first came together, we had an amazing vision to become the best stand-alone memory care in MN. Our resident-centered approach always put the needs of the resident at the forefront of every decision that is made. We took into account how we could fulfill every tactile sense for residents and create a joyful and prosperous environment. Every square inch of the building was thoroughly designed to serve the needs of those who live with Alzheimer’s and dementia. Our rigorous research led us to a single story building with an open flowing concept to help promote a community feel. We wanted to encourage interpersonal relationships that would be bound together with activities such as cooking meals together, doing puzzles, filling bird feeders on the patio and listening to special music that inspired residents. All of our communities are developed, owned and operated within our group for quality control and to stay true to our vision.
