Suite Living of North St. Paul sits in a quiet part of town and offers a smaller, home-like community with 32 private suites for both assisted living and memory care. The staff stays on site 24 hours a day, always ready to help with daily things like bathing, dressing, and keeping track of medicines, and there's a call system so residents can ask for help whenever they need it. For folks living with memory issues, including Alzheimer's or dementia, the memory care program gives focused support in a safe area, and the staff know how to help with those needs. The community accepts residents needing hospice or respite care and also helps with spiritual care, offering an environment that supports physical, emotional, and spiritual well-being.
Meals come from a professional chef, and residents get three meals each day, with restaurant-style dining in a shared dining room, and they can eat in their rooms if they prefer; guests can join meals, and special diets are respected. Folks can join in on movie nights, religious services, gardening club, crafts, live performances, games, or just walk the garden paths or outdoor patio. The building itself feels pretty cozy and is built so residents can move around easily, with handicap accessible features, wide hallways, and regular housekeeping and laundry provided. People can use the salon or barber services right on site, and there's a coffee shop area and activity spaces for gathering with others.
Rooms get Wi-Fi, high-speed internet, cable TV, private kitchen, washer and dryer, and all spaces have home-like furniture, with the staff even helping set up apartments for new residents by moving in furniture or hanging pictures. For additional needs like diabetic or coumadin care, the community arranges specialized support, though these have extra charges. Pets aren't allowed. Seniors get scheduled van transportation for appointments or outings, and there's parking for visitors.
Suite Living is licensed through the state of Minnesota and welcomes adults 55 and up, with all-inclusive rent options to help families plan ahead, though there's a community fee and security deposit to consider at move-in. There are payment plans approved for Elderly Waiver, Community Alternatives for Disabled Individuals (CADI), and Group Residential Housing (GRH). The pairing of a small setting, experienced care team, and steady support helps folks feel safe and looked after, and tours are available for families who want to see what the community's like before making a decision.
