Carefree Living Buhl sits at 500 E Monroe Dr, Buhl, MN, and is a place where seniors get support for both daily life and health needs, as it's an assisted living and memory care community with 20 licensed beds, so it's small enough for staff to really get to know each resident. There are outdoor patios, a garden, and walking paths where folks can relax or stretch their legs, and for those who like to have their hair done, there's a beauty shop and barber on site, which makes it easy to keep up with personal care. The dining room is big enough for everyone to gather for three meals and two snacks each day, and if someone wants quiet, there's a library area for reading or a craft room for hobbies, so there are always ways to pass the time both inside and outside.
The rooms there are private with their own baths, cable-ready, have air conditioning, and include all utilities except phone, and if someone prefers to come furnished, staff helps with move-in and even apartment maintenance. The whole place is built with safety in mind, featuring smoke detectors, sprinkler systems, an emergency call system, and wheelchair-accessible spaces, and the memory care area is locked and supervised for those who wander or need more guidance. There's round-the-clock nursing support, which means staff help with medications, personal care like bathing and dressing, wound care, diabetes and incontinence management, and even transfers for people who can't move easily on their own.
People who need a short break or whose families need temporary help can use the respite care option, and the staff will tailor support to each resident's needs, promoting as much independence as possible while paying close attention to safety, and staff cover things like daily activities, housekeeping, laundry, and specialized meal plans for allergies or diabetes, so everyone's health is covered. There's also transportation for doctor's appointments and outings, plus lots of activities-from games and movie nights to group exercises and devotional services-so there's always a way to stay busy or social if someone wants.
Memory care programs involve 24-hour support, special activities to boost memory, and care for mild cognitive impairment or dementia, with dementia waiver support if needed; physical therapy is available, and mental wellness and enrichment programs help everyone feel engaged. Folks who want financial or housing information will find that Carefree Living Buhl offers guides for senior care and resources for things like hearing aids, Medicare, Medicaid, insurance, and retirement options, all included to make things less stressful when planning senior living, and the prices are marked as X, per month, with affordable options for assisted living compared to standard nursing homes.
The building is licensed by authorities for peace of mind, and community reviews sit around an 8 out of 10, so it's considered a solid choice. Residents can take part in both on-site and offsite activities, with support for transportation, and can enjoy the comfort of a relaxed setting focused on comfort, convenience, and dignity, so folks who move here find Carefree Living Buhl offers a supportive environment where both seniors and their families can feel looked after without a fuss.
