What to Consider About Assisted Living in Oak Park Heights

Oak Park Heights, Minnesota, is known as “Tree City” USA, and for good reason. Seniors have access to nine different parks within city limits to enjoy fresh air and wooded trails, as well as two assisted living facilities to choose from, with 56 in the nearby area.

Assisted living facilities serve seniors by creating a homelike atmosphere and offer 24-hour support and other services like medication management and organized social activities. The Minnesota Department of Health governs the policies of these facilities.

Benefits and Drawbacks of Assisted Living in Oak Park Heights
