Sandstone Senior Living

Sandstone Senior Living sits quietly on a peaceful property overlooking Red Water Creek in the Sandstone subdivision of Spearfish, SD, and offers a home-like, ranch-style environment with scenic views, and you'll find well-trained staff there, including experienced caregivers licensed by the South Dakota Department of Health, who provide care and support with everything from bathing and dressing to medication management, special diets, and memory loss, so residents get what they need whether they're independent, require assisted living, or need memory and skilled nursing care. This place provides a continuum of care, which means folks can choose independent living for a maintenance-free lifestyle, assisted living if help with daily tasks is wanted, memory care for Alzheimer's and dementia, and even home care, home health, hospice, and adult day services, with options like physical, speech, and occupational therapies, plus companionship, homemaking, and respite care, all under one roof with a focus on keeping everyone comfortable and active as their needs change. The building is pet-friendly and has rooms with things like air conditioning, Wi-Fi, TV, accessible bathrooms, showers or bathtubs, and ground-floor units, along with emergency alert systems for safety, and there's 24-hour staff support, so residents can feel secure. For meals, Sandstone hosts restaurant-style dining with all-day options led by professional chefs and offers vegetarian, vegan, kosher, gluten-free, low sodium, and guest meals in both a cozy dining room and private dining spaces, and folks can also get help with special dietary needs, including diabetes and allergies. The grounds feature walking paths and a garden for fresh air, plus spaces for art, gatherings, and activities, and with a team of full-time activity directors, the calendar stays full with socials, movie nights, trips, outings, devotional services, and resident-run events, adding variety and encouraging friendships among people living there. Sandstone encourages connection and an active lifestyle, organizing everything from wellness programs and educational sessions to therapeutic activities, while also offering beauty salon and barber services to help folks feel their best, and transportation helps everyone access outings, appointments, or community spots like nearby parks, restaurants, and medical offices, including the local hospital and Interim Healthcare just a few miles away. The Heartland Signature Experience guides individualized care in a setting recognized for "Best Meals and Dining," "Best Activities," and "Most Friendly," so the staff aim to support a high quality of life, and even though the facility only has room for 28 residents and comes with an assisted living certification (#11062), it manages to offer a range of support from light help to long-term skilled nursing, hospice care, and non-medical home care, all while keeping a family-like environment where residents and their pets can settle in and make friends.
