Aase Haugen Homes Inc

Aase Haugen Homes Inc, which has served seniors since 1915, offers living options like assisted living, respite care, hospice care, independent living, skilled nursing, rehabilitation, and dementia care, all in one place with familiar names for their programs like CCDI for memory care and emphasizing care that meets individual needs, including things like diabetic and incontinence care and services for non-ambulatory folks, and it gives people the choice to move between care levels if their health needs change over the years, which can be a relief because transitions are never easy. The staff, known for being kind and helpful, are always around 24 hours a day, with emergency response systems in place to make sure everyone's safe, especially for respite care guests who get private, efficiency-style rooms, weekly laundry, light housekeeping, three meals a day, daily wellness checks, free internet and TV, and a bit of independence with things like use of the Nu-Step exercise equipment, off-street parking, and gardens or quiet courtyards for a bit of fresh air. Residents get to join daily activities, devotional events, trips, and social outings, and there are communal spaces inside for dining, relaxing, and enjoying activities, plus a media center and breakout areas so everyone can find something they like to do. Those in assisted living have private apartments-either one-bedroom or efficiency layouts-along with services that offer the right amount of help but let folks stay independent. They include things like meal service, weekly housekeeping, linen laundry, private dining spaces, all utilities except a phone, and daily check-ins for health and wellness so families don't have to worry. Priority goes to those residents for things like memory care or rehab when needed, and rehabilitation includes things like outpatient therapy, restorative nursing, and coordinated care if someone's moving from a hospital back to everyday life. Aase Haugen Homes stays close to its mission of making sure folks are cared for right to the end, never left alone, and the non-profit is run by a board elected by more than twenty local Lutheran and Christian churches, which keeps the community connected and family-like. The home meets state license rules, takes Medicaid, Medicare, private insurance, and private pay, and maintains this tradition with its roots in church and local history. The focus always remains on helping residents feel at home, whether that's in their own apartment for independence or in specialized dementia care, and on providing the right support as needs change, with programs and amenities that are thorough, practical, and designed for comfort.
