Respect for your loved one is paramount to good service. When considering these residential homes in the Minnetonka, Minnesota area you’ll be able to discuss your needs and concerns. Community areas are open where you are invited to stroll through and see how other residents. The cost of living in one of these facilities usually includes meals which can be served in the individual living areas or served in a communal dining area. Most of these living facilities are built as a single level unit meaning that should your loved one become unable to stand, walk or climb stairs at any time during their residency they will not have to be moved to another unit. Residents who need daily medication will be attended by an on staff nurse specifically schooled in assisting with medications or physical therapy. Some facilities have, on location, physical therapy units that are fully staffed. Facilities not equipped with this offer a car service that will safely transport your loved one to and from doctor appointments or therapy visits.

Moving to one of these facilities is a blessing to family members who cannot live with their loved one yet want the peace of mind knowing that they are being taken care of.
