Assisted Living Communities in Hugo, MN

"It was a wonderful place. The staff was very friendly and wonderful. The apartment was just exactly what I would want. I liked that's it on the first floor and had its own door to the outside. Plus, the outside door led right to a beautiful garden with wildlife. I loved it there. There's a library and a place where you can cook and bake. The dining room was also great. You could go down for coffee and they even put out pastries. It's open all night, so if you got up at four in the morning and sit down there, you can. It's very nice."

"We chose Southern Oaks Place for our parents because it's a smaller community, which makes it easier for my dad to walk to dinners or to get meals. The other ones were huge. He has a little bit of a problem walking, so this is more intimate. It's very clean. Even though it's along a very busy street, you don't hear the traffic. The grounds were nice. The people were nice. The dining area looked really good. The food had a good selection."

"My aunt moved in at Ecumen Lakeview Commons. The staff is very friendly and very good. Everything there is very nice. The rooms are nice, and it's just big enough for what my aunt needs. The dining room looks like a restaurant, and they have choices for their food. My aunt says the food is very good. They have bingo and tours to different places. She takes part in just about everything, and I can't believe how busy she is."

"My mother lived at Oakridge Place. The price was good. You have a choice of doing a full meal plan, one meal a day, or two meals a day. They had wonderful staff there. We visited there. I thought that I was going to be able to have a meal there, but I didn't get to. I was a little late, and they were in the middle of their lunch. If you don't like what's on their menu for the day, you can do an ala carte menu. They could have said, 'Well, we can get you a sandwich quick' since people were still eating in the dining room. They could have done that. I think the staff either forgot or had to continue with the tour because I was late, and she had other things going on. The staff was wonderful. I visited this place two weeks ago, and the person who did the tour was Heather. She is new to that place, but she's very good and helpful. They had a couple of apartments that they were fixing up. After someone leaves a place like that, they thoroughly have to go through it and clean it. Heather did a great job. I was pleased with it. It didn't make a difference that I didn't get a lunch, but I think if they tell you you're going to get lunch, you should get a sandwich or something. They have a lot of activities for the residents. They had a lot of people coming in to sing. Sometimes, during the meal, they had light piano music going on and a lady was playing. It's not a place that I wanted, but it would be a great place for the right person. They were very efficient with everything. The dining room was very clean. The hallways were very clean and kept up well. They had a lot of activities. From experience with my mom being there, they have activities that are geared towards older people like bingo, putting puzzles together, and music. They have a van where they'll take you to the bank or they'll take you where you need to go. My mom was there during COVID the whole time and it doesn't bother her too much because she wasn't used to going out much anyway because she's blind and couldn't see. She had those books where they listened to the books. Those are provided by the Foundation for the Blind and that was her enjoyment for activity. There are good things for the people to do there. Overall (and I based it on what my mother was able to do), they were very efficient with that. They had therapies that would come in if your doctor agreed that you needed that. They had bingo, music, therapy, exercise, and some other types of games."

"The people were very friendly, helpful, and explained everything that they'd be doing for my mother. They don't have the amenities that she used to have when she was in a bigger place before. They just have their room and their lunch room. There's a front porch and a back area. They have pots and some plants growing in it. It's just like a little house area; it's a small place. They do different stuff. They do facials. They work out. They have different people come in and sing. They go for walks and do things. They have someone that comes in and cooks their meals. We haven't tried it, but it smelled good. It's just that they have window air conditioners, which we didn't know about when we moved her in there. She keeps unplugging it all the time. Her room gets hot, so we have to call them to go check her air. But I mean, I'm sure there's a lot of places that have that. She unplugs everything and takes the batteries out of everything, so it's not their fault."

"We toured Sunrise of Roseville. There were 45 or 50 people there for assisted living, and everybody was happy. The apartments were very nice, including the one on the ground floor and the back overlooking some parkland and stuff. It has a very nice two-bedroom, and it seemed like a nice size. Everything looks good about it. There's a refrigerator, but no stove because they provide all the meals. They serve three meals a day, and you can get snacks anytime. Breakfast starts at maybe eight, and you can get all day long. They have different menu specials every day, like lunch, maybe noon to one, and then dinner at 5 to 6, but there's also a snack bar where you can pick up popcorn and cookies and other things, and you can pretty much ask for anything, and they'll be happy to give it to you. We had breakfast there and it was great."

"I love it here at Ecumen Prairie Lodge. I feel safe and sound. The food is great. They are all pretty fantastic people. They are fun to be with and I love them. I don't want to be anywhere else. The place is simple. We have coffee here any time you want it, or juice, and there's plenty of water. They wash our clothes and take good care of us. They take us to different therapies. So far, I love it. They are excellent. They are very kind and very caring."

"Abiitan Mill City is my favorite. If I wanted to stay in Minneapolis, I would move there. It is located near the river. The streets are lined with trees. There are lots of good restaurants within walking distance. The Guthrie Theater is within walking distance, too. Great transportation is available, from the light rail to buses. The rooms were beautiful with huge windows. They had lovely common spaces, indoors and outdoors. There were lots of arts in the hallways that I found to be very contemporary. There was a lively feeling about the staff and the residents I met. There were many happy people there."

"Brookdale West St. Paul looks like a nice place to call home. It's assisted living. I had no expectations going in but what I saw exceeded what I could have even thought might have been possible. The best thing about it was it was clean and looked like you could furnish your own residency or your own room in a way that you wanted it. You could use your own stuff. The least thing about it was, and it wasn't a big concern of mine, but it was of the other family members, there wasn't any diversity there. They were all old white people and I'm an old white person. There was no diversity and my mother-in-law was 100% Mexican. I think sometimes, being with your own kind, is helpful. I just assumed West St. Paul would have a more diverse population. The staff was very knowledgeable. I think her name was Melanie. She is very knowledgeable. She knew the answers to the questions we had and I did ask her about the diversity. She said it's unfortunate that they just don't have a very diverse population there. I know that there's the availability of free choice of what you might want to eat and when you might want to eat it. It seemed like there was a range of options there. They had decent parking. I peeked into a couple of rooms that were already occupied and it looked like housekeeping does a great job of cleaning and maintaining a sense of order."
