The Best Memory Care Communities in Washington County, MN

"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."

"My parents moved into Brookdale North Oaks about a month ago. The staff is great. They're good with the patients, the residents. They understand how to deal with people with memory issues. And, the food is a big deal. When I vetted a senior living, I knew the food would be a big deal. Also, I was looking for a place that had an area where they could go outside, a patio of some type, and Brookdale had two. So that's good. Also, they had one of the bigger rooms, which was the deciding factor when it came down to two different places as we were placing both of them at the same time. The facility is great. The dining area is not just a bunch of tables and chairs. They have it set up like a restaurant. They used tablecloths on the tables that give it a warmer feel, less industrial or commercial feel than some other places that they've been in."

"I toured Brookdale West St. Paul. I liked the fact that the staff were very friendly and very helpful in explaining the details about the facility. It was a great place, but it's not affordable, and that's my stumbling block. Overall, it was nice. The rooms were clean, and a place I'd want to put my loved one. They had a dining room, a group room, and a secured patio area. Overall, the place was very secure. I wouldn't worry about leaving my family member there and knowing that it was not secure. The staff members were very helpful and caring."

"We toured Rakhma Joy Home. It was an older home. I mean, all of their homes are older homes in really nice neighborhoods. If residents want to take walks, they will go with them or follow them to make sure they stay safe. It felt more like it was somebody's home. They have both private rooms and shared rooms. They seem to have social time with the residents. They had outings for the residents. A critical thing for my sister is that she's a smoker. So going to a larger institution where she had to be off the property to smoke was not something that we could look at. There were other smokers in the house and they could smoke outside together. So that's another social aspect for her."

"We really liked The Alton. It's a small community and it's really simple. The area where you get together is kind of in the middle so I liked that. You don't have to walk from one end to the other just to get to a community area. You can get out and they have a garden center. They have a little lot for you to just enjoy in the summer. It looked like they really care about their area. We didn't really see other staff other than the director and another person. They were really, really nice. They made us feel comfortable. They showed us a lot of Italian food, but they don't have Asian. I didn't see any activity. They just showed us the community room where they have some games and snacks. The day that we went, we didn't see too many people around. They do activities and get together with the residents and they call it a community, so each section of it is a community."

"Our tour at Minnehaha Senior Living was very nice. It was very informative. I thought the actual facility was very homey, nice, and clean. They had a lot to offer, which was nice. The staff was very nice. She was exceptional."

"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."

"I love living at Keystone. I am in the independent living and my husband is in the memory care. Very convenient for me. The room sizes and closets are perfect and the food is great. I can sit out on the balcony and read. Lots of activities if you want to participate."

"We visited Lino Lakes Assisted Living and toured their memory care for my father. We liked the room because it was a decent size for his needs. It's a nice location because it's close to us, as we live in the area. Inside, it was beautiful, big, and didn't have that nursing home smell. They have a lot of room for the residents to eat. They also have music, I think, once a week. The staff who gave the tour was awesome. There are also RNs 24/7, so I like it there. We did a lot of online searches, and all of the places are pretty much the same. It's just a matter of the people, and the people were really kind there. The residents also seem to be nice."

"We were very impressed with Brookdale Eagan. I would recommend it. Victoria is a wonderful advocate for seniors. She was an impressive woman. The facility was small and intimate, and they had a lot of one-on-one participation for their clients. It's all memory care. We met one staff member and he seemed very nice. The facility seemed very nice. There were some workout equipment and some stationary bikes, but not extensive. They had some lovely patios for them to go out on. They allow pets. If somebody wants to have their dog with them, they're very good with that. The other thing that they have is a service where they will also take your pet out. If anybody wants to stay living with their pet and that's a problem for them to get them in and out, it's absolutely a perfect facility for that. They have craft events and they have music events. They have an extensive calendar."

"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."
