Broadwell Senior Living sits at 3025 Harbor Lane North in Plymouth, Minnesota, close to Medicine Lake and several parks, and right across from Kearney Regional Hospital, so residents get peace and some privacy without feeling cut off from what they need. The building has three stories with 130 apartments ranging from studios to one- and two-bedroom layouts, and some have dens, balconies, or large windows that make things feel bright and open, letting folks bring their pets and enjoy a bit of sun or sit outside in the outdoor gazebo near the fire pit or practice on the putting green if they're up to it. Residents can choose from independent living, assisted living, memory care, or short-term respite care, with services and help levels that can change if health or needs do over time, so people can age in one place without moving around. Each apartment's got a full kitchen, dishwasher, full-size washer and dryer, and energy-saving appliances, and the whole building's wheelchair-friendly with underground and covered parking, plus guest parking for when family or friends visit, which they do, because staff and residents have a friendly way about them and treat each other somewhat like family.
The community walks the talk with wellness and daily living help, so there's nurses on staff, help with medication, bathing, dressing, regular housekeeping, and laundry. There's also therapy on-site or through partners if someone needs physical, occupational, or speech therapy, a separate space for those, and partnerships with hospice care for those who need it. Memory care stays secure with special units and a private courtyard, and those with advanced needs get trained staff on hand around the clock. Folks staying short-term for respite or recovery from hospital stays still join in group outings or therapy, with transportation if needed.
When it comes to meals, there's restaurant-style dining with chef-made options, special menus, a bistro for cappuccinos, a club room, a public dining room, and a private one for family get-togethers, and the food changes with the seasons, trying to keep things fresh. There are plenty of ways to keep busy, too-activities go on every day, from fitness classes, yoga, meditation, and art, to lifelong learning courses, music, and games. Trails and walking paths run throughout the property and nearby, the fitness center's well-stocked, and a beauty salon and barber shop with a pedicure station gives folks a place to get cleaned up. The onsite café, spa, and multiple activity rooms mean there's always something to do no matter the weather.
Residents don't have to worry over chores with help for daily needs, regular upkeep, and utilities included in one all-in price. Monthly support groups for families, help with move-in, and a welcoming, calming atmosphere keep stress a little lower. Residents, staff, and families say the community feels warm, safe, and pet-friendly, with people looking out for one another, and there's always activities to join or company to be had. Broadwell Senior Living opened in 2021 with up-to-date features and modern design, and it's managed by The Waters Senior Living, offering a calm, respectful environment for seniors who want both independence and the right support if things change.
