Eaglecrest Senior Housing sits in Ramsey County, Minnesota, and Presbyterian Homes & Services runs the place, offering a mix of independent living, assisted living, and memory care in apartments ranging from studios to roomy two-bedrooms, all with big windows, nine-foot ceilings, and in-home laundry. Folks can find standard comforts like basic cable, central air and heating, step-in showers with grab bars, and kitchens with all the usual appliances, and if someone wants to bring a small dog or cat under 20 pounds, there's a $500 deposit. Those in independent living get one meal per day, but extra meals are available for an added cost, and in assisted living, staff serve two meals daily with flexible hours, while residents in memory care receive three daily meals plus snacks. The building has a warm water therapy pool, a library, a chapel, a beauty and barber shop, a cafe, a fitness center, a solarium, a billiards area, a general store, and a car wash bay. There's guest parking, underground garage spaces for $60 a month, and everyone can use scheduled van transportation for errands or doctor visits. Staff helps with personal tasks like bathing, dressing, grooming, toileting, and even going to activities and meals, so residents don't have to worry if they need some help over time, and there's a 24-hour on-site Resident Assistant and nurses on duty at all hours, with an urgent call system in case someone needs fast help.
People who need more care can stay in The Hearth Care Suites for enhanced assisted living, where nurses offer round-the-clock support, or they can move into The Arbor memory care, which gives private studio apartments in a secure, safe spot for those with dementia, along with special programs and plenty of activities aimed at keeping minds and bodies busy. Eaglecrest provides short-term rehab, wound care, pain management, hospice care, intravenous hydration and medication therapies, and even sends staff out for home care visits, so someone who needs extra help or health attention won't be left hanging. Everyone gets the basics like weekly housekeeping, laundry and linen service, and the building's kept in good shape with on-site maintenance. The environment feels open and welcoming, and staff gets known for being capable, involved, and friendly, and residents can get involved in social programs, games, movies, fitness classes, outings around the Twin Cities, wellness programs, and even spiritual care with the campus pastor if that's important. Volunteer opportunities, newsletters, and a monthly lease for the independent apartments make life here flexible. Storage lockers are available if someone's downsizing and needs extra space. Eaglecrest earns recognition for its activity programs and its caring treatment, and families know the staff keeps a close eye on everyone's well-being, especially in memory care, making it a place many find suits folks who want support, options, a bit of freedom, and a decent community as they age.
