Silver Bay Carefree Living sits at 36 Bell Circle in Silver Bay, Minnesota, and helps seniors of different needs, whether someone needs everyday help or extra care because of dementia or Parkinson's. The staff provides assisted living, memory care, and nursing services with support for folks who use wheelchairs or who stay in bed. The community has a move-in assessment process and helps families with the change, including move-in coordination, care planning, and support. Every resident gets help with daily things like bathing, getting dressed, transfers, and medication management, and there's always staff in the building day and night, which brings comfort to those who need it. A nurse is on staff part-time, and the community is part of Spectrum Health Companies, which provides extra healthcare resources.
Residents choose from private or furnished apartments with private bathrooms, air conditioning, Wi-Fi, cable TV, and an emergency call system in each unit, and most utilities come included except for the telephone. Meals get served restaurant-style in the dining room, with snacks in between, and diets are planned for special health needs, like diabetes or food allergies. The staff provides full housekeeping, dry cleaning, washing, and linen service, and they keep up apartment maintenance, so residents don't have to worry about chores, and there's help with incontinence and diabetic care, too.
For activities, the place holds daily events like games, crafts, movies, and planned outings, and there are special programs for dementia, mental wellness, and continued learning. Residents can go outside to the garden area, walk the outdoor paths, or relax in the whirlpool therapeutic bath, and the facility also has a fitness room, game room, library, and lounge with cable TV. Social, spiritual, and hobby activities take place on-site, and transportation is available for appointments or group events. There's a parking area for residents with cars and plenty of area for outdoor walks.
