The Meadows Senior Living in Savage, Minnesota offers several types of care, including independent living, assisted living, memory care, and nursing home services, and you'll find folks here living in studios or one-bedroom suites with private bathrooms, walk-in closets, and basic kitchens that have things like a refrigerator, self-cleaning oven, microwave, and dishwasher, and each unit's got its own washer and dryer, which is pretty handy when you're the sort of person who likes to get your laundry done right when you want it. The place puts a lot of thought into safety with sprinkler systems, smoke detectors, individually controlled heat and air conditioning, and a 24-hour emergency call system, and you'll notice security's a big deal too, especially in the memory care areas like The Bluffs Advanced Memory Care at Hudson, where they've got 24-hour caregivers and a secured setting aimed at looking after folks with moderate to severe dementia, plus the team knows how to support those who have frequent memory or behavior challenges, and they even call their care approach Behavioral Health Integration (BHI).
Residents here get support from personal care assistants, and they help with bathing, dressing, grooming, and toileting if you need it, and there's also walking or wheelchair assistance, medication help, wound care, and nursing staff, with a licensed RN ready to assess what you might need for care and set up a plan. There's therapy services, podiatry, and even general counseling, and you can stay on a month-to-month lease if you like, which works out for a lot of folks who don't want to get tied down. When you get hungry, the in-house chef prepares continental breakfasts, lunches, and dinners, and there are meals and snacks like afternoon coffee and cookies-they've even got a community dining room if you like to chat with neighbors while you eat. If you're one to keep busy, the place has a game room, activities and fitness center, a movie theater, a library, and a beauty salon that also doubles as a barbershop, and they set up daily social programs, spiritual care, educational and wellness activities, and arts and crafts, so there's always something to do or learn unless you'd rather relax on one of the screened porches or outdoor terraces.
Housekeeping, apartment and building maintenance, linen change, and trash pickup are all taken care of for you, and the place welcomes pets with some rules, so you can bring your friend along. There's free wifi throughout, guest parking, and transportation services nearby, and they offer planned rides for residents who need to get to appointments, run errands, or visit the local area, which includes schools like Hidden Valley Elementary and neighborhoods like Redwood and Alimagnet while the walk score shows you'll probably want a car around here. For folks looking into payment and support options, The Meadows Senior Living accepts private pay, Medicaid, long-term care insurance, VA benefits, and offers long-term and short-term rehabilitation for different needs, and there's also Continuing Care Retirement Community features for those who may want to transition between levels of care as life changes. The staff tries to treat everyone like family and works on building a community where people feel safe, respected, and independent, and they're connected with Kindred Supports and Touching Lives Adult Day Services to give extra help to residents with unique needs. Tours are available for families who want to look around and see if it feels right, and there are both units to rent or to buy, with lots of options whether you want one or two beds and space for a guest now and then.
