Diamond Willow Assisted Living & Memory Care offers both assisted living and memory care for seniors at different locations across Minnesota, including communities in Cloquet, Detroit Lakes, Duluth, Grand Rapids, Lester Park, Little Falls, Mountain Iron, Park Rapids, and Proctor. Residents can choose private suites, such as the Eagle Pine Suites, Mississippi Suites, Burlington Suites, Soo Line Suites, Staurolite Suites, Lindbergh Suites, Wacoutah Suites, Leonidas Suites, Birch Park Suites, Evergreen Suites, and Arbor Rose and Misty Ivy Suites. The staff helps with everyday needs like bathing, dressing, medication management, transfers, and non-ambulatory care, always keeping a close eye on residents through high staff-to-resident ratios and 24-hour supervision, plus there's an emergency call system in place for safety.
The community is set up for wheelchair accessibility and assists residents with moving from one place to another, making it easier for people with mobility challenges to get around, and if folks need more advanced medical attention, services like diabetic care, incontinence management, and access to on-site therapy through CaringEdge Home Health and Hospice are available. Residents get meals with all-day dining in a dining room that feels welcoming, and staff can handle special diets if needed, along with daily laundry, housekeeping, and transportation to help make life easier. The rooms come furnished, and there are common and indoor gathering areas where residents can relax or join in on community-sponsored and resident-run activities.
Residents can take part in a full schedule of social, educational, devotional, and offsite activities designed to keep them engaged physically, mentally, and emotionally, plus there are walking paths, a garden, an arts room, barber and salon services, and group events to encourage independence and friendships. The memory care keeps those with Alzheimer's and dementia safe from wandering, keeps confusion down, and offers specialized programs and brain-boosting tasks suited to each resident's needs, while staff works to coordinate with healthcare providers for effective and respectful care. The environment at Diamond Willow feels nurturing and supportive, with personalized care plans that can be updated as a resident's needs change, and everything is set up to help seniors maintain as much independence as possible while giving families peace of mind through thoughtful, professional support.
