Boden Senior Living Rapids sits on a quiet street in Rapids, Minnesota, north of Minneapolis and the Mississippi River, and offers a single-story layout with 53 residential units. Out of these, 29 units are for assisted living and 24 units are for memory care. The staff supports seniors who need help with daily tasks like bathing, dressing, eating, and medication management, tailoring each resident's plan to fit their unique needs and providing flexible and personalized care pathways. Residents receive three home-cooked, nutritious meals every day, with snacks available, and can enjoy community spaces like cozy lounges, a library, a community room, and an enclosed courtyard with picturesque porches that are nice to sit on and enjoy some quiet time or talk with friends.
The building itself has scalloped siding and is easy to get around because everything is on one floor-no stairs to bother with-and the private bedrooms come with en-suite bathrooms, individually controlled thermostats, and utilities included except for landline phones. WiFi is available throughout, along with wheelchair-accessible showers, a beauty salon for haircuts or other barber services, and an onsite physician who helps keep an eye on everyone's health. Housekeeping and laundry services happen regularly, so residents can focus on enjoying the many group activities, social outings, and daily wellness programs offered by the team, all part of routines that include spiritual, recreational, educational, and social opportunities if you want to join in.
The Homestead at Rapids community, which includes Boden Senior Living, aims to provide a tightly-knit environment where folks can live life to the fullest, with support available 24 hours a day and a dedicated emergency response system for safety. The memory care area has special design features that help reduce confusion and keep residents safe if they have Alzheimer's or dementia. Amenities around the building and the courtyard make it comfortable and easy for everyone to relax or meet up with neighbors, and everything aims to help people feel independent while also getting support where they need it. The staff-part of Lifespark Senior Living-are well-trained and pay attention to both physical and mental wellness, offering daily checks, medication assistance, and encouragement to join in programs or social circles whenever a resident wants. The place tries to provide comfort, security, and a sense of community so residents feel empowered to keep active and engaged, whether they're in assisted living or memory care.
