Minnesota Masonic Home Bloomington

I'm in Minnesota Masonic Home Bloomington, it's a rehab place. It's very, very clean, has a pleasant atmosphere, and the nurses and aides are good people. I have my food delivered to my room. They bring you a menu every day so you can pick from it. The food is very good. There's a lot of walking but they also have the rowing machine, bicycles, and several other types of rehab equipment. For entertainment, I believe once or twice a month; they do a show or have someone come in and do something.

My mom fell here because the aide was not watching so she didn't want her back in her room. Then my mom had more surgery and when she was going to recover they told her she can't come back because she complained. That's so unprofessional of a health care facility.

This facility was very clean and well maintained. The grounds were well kept and seemed inviting. The staff was friendly and competent. Call lights seemed to be answered in a timely manner and residents needs and concerns were address appropriately. Meal time seemed well organized and dietary concerns were addressed for each resident. The staff on duty at the time I was there had all worked there for a reasonable amount of time and seemed invested in their positions. The residents were respected and treated with care. Overall the facility seemed very inviting and clean. I especially liked how the facility had several different areas for different levels of care. They had assisted living apartments all the way to full care units. I would imagine that the different levels of care all on the same campus would help make these transitions easier for the families as well as the residents. The facility had a quaint study for the residents as well as a small cafe setting in the entrance that seemed very nice. I also liked how the facility had a small beauty/barber shop that looked inviting.

My Grandmother was living here for a period of time after she got out of the hospital last year. She was in there to rehab and get stronger. My initial impression of the place was not very good. I just did not get a good vibe. After visiting her there daily for several weeks my opinion changed completely. The entire staff was extremely friendly. My Grandmother got rehab daily and was a lot stronger by the time she got out of there. Another bonus was the food they served was delicious! After seeing firsthand the experience she had there, as well as listening to her rave about it after she left, I would highly recommend this place to anyone!
