English Rose | Timber Ridge

English Rose | Timber Ridge sits in Edina, Minnesota, among neighborhoods like Braemar and Interlachen, and in Indian Hills, offering four elegant residential homes for older adults needing assisted living, memory care, dementia care, and end-of-life care, and you'll find that each home has six bedroom suites with large windows and views of trees and landscaped yards, so you really get a sense of peace and nature even when you're inside. The care team works around the clock, every day of the year, led by Katie Rinehimer, the Quality of Life Director, focusing their efforts on each resident's physical, medical, cognitive, social, and spiritual well-being, and they really do try to look after folks in body, mind, and soul, treating every person with dignity and respect and developing care plans tailored just for them, whether you're dealing with Alzheimer's, Lewy Body dementia, Parkinson's Disease, or another condition-meaning they try to help as much as needed, but also help residents help themselves, since that's important. The homes have a cozy, home-like feeling with elegant décor, comfortable living spaces, fireplaces, big dining tables, and everyday views of wildlife by the pond, and there's plenty of space to spend time both with others and alone if you want. Staff remain trained for safety and memory support, and you get things like emergency alert systems, 24-hour call systems, personalized support with bathing, dressing, medication reminders, help with meals, and laundry, plus podiatry, nursing, wound care, and occupational therapy as needed, and while there are no on-site doctors, they do arrange other medical services when necessary. Folks living here can enjoy a range of activities, from arts and crafts and educational programs to game nights, movie nights, trips out with transportation provided, and use of common areas like an arts room, fitness center, walking paths, and gardens, with the goal being to support purposeful living and real community ties. Meals get prepared on site and can fit special diets, from diabetes to allergies, and there's a big focus on making the dining room a place for everyone to gather, because people still want to feel at home, even in group settings.
