Heritage of Edina

I'm moving into Heritage of Edina. It's a big community, where I will get a lot of activities. They had a very nice room for me, and the food looked great. I especially was impressed that the owner of the complex lives there, and she does most of the gardening. Every month, they have a barbecue. She wants to meet all of the people that live there and wants to talk to them by their first name, which I was really impressed. I like what I've seen and how everyone interacted with me when I was there. I like the outside gardens. They were lovely, and I felt very comfortable being out in the garden. Even if I was out there by myself, I felt very safe and comfortable. I like the location because my son lives in Eden Prairie and my daughter is moving to Saint Paul.

The facility is older and could be updated. Full of antiques in the lobby, but that’s the style. The staff were great. Facility is clean. Spacious rooms. The only problem we had was they had gotten a new kitchen staff. They served my grandmother a turkey sandwich for dinner and the turkey was spoiled. It even smelled bad. No variety in the menu. Same thing every week.

My sister and I visited this facility as a possible option for my mother who needed to go in assisted care facility. Our initial reaction was not good - the facility is extremely dated - doesn't look like it has had any updates to lobby furniture, rooms or anywhere else since the 1960's. You are stepping back in time for sure! While we can't rate staff or care - the facility itself was just not appealing to us - dark, dingy, dated, the room we saw had contact paper in the cabinets, fixtures and switches were super old. Another room we looked at that was occupied by a resident had window blinds that where many of the slats were broken off - the person giving us the tour ensured us that this was going to be fixed soon - which we doubted. I couldn't see us putting our family member in there.

I visited Heritage of Edina. It was very dingy, not up to date at all, and I was not impressed with the dining room. The staff and the residents did not seem particularly happy.

As we savor wonderful memories of our 100 year old mother, grandmother and great grandmother. We are so grateful to each and every one of you who helped to make her years at Heritage of Edina feel so much like home for her. She felt safe, loved and cared for there. We want to especially thank Lynn who was regularly communicating with us, and also frequently visiting her...just to say "hi, how are you and I love you". She truly felt the love and the attention! Also, we as her family, rested easier at night knowing she was at Heritage. She loved living there; her room and her view of the front gardens, which she couldn't see as well at the end, but seemed to remember in her minds eye. So, for all of the special ways that you shared and helped with our dear loved one's care, we want to say thank you; we will always be grateful.

Heritage of Edina had four buildings and for someone who's able, it was very nice. The only downfall I see was a lot of the stuff was a la carte. My spouse is a diabetic and they don't have a diabetic program, but they were going to try to work on this. If they had to come in and test his blood sugars, it would be $9 a poke. They had shown us a little suite and it was very small. They're located real close to all doctors and the hospital and everything else. I appreciate their forwardness in saying that they could not accept him because of the quality of care he needs.
