Examples include glare-free lighting, shorter hallways, private rooms, activity stations, and discrete directional cues.

Our memory care community features 20 private studio apartments with easy to navigate floor plans measuring 292 square feet.
Shared spaces and activities are plentiful and serve to keep your loved one connected to a secure community while offering individual freedom to safely explore and interact with neighbors and team members.
My Mother was in memory care for four years before she passed. Alzheimer’s can change a person, and the staff were ready to help, distract and ensure her comfort and safety. I genuinely felt that there were staff who really cared about her as a person. “Minnesota Nice” is not a myth!
