Copperfield Hill The Lodge sits in Robbinsdale, Minnesota, and offers a range of care types, including assisted living, memory care, nursing home, independent living, skilled nursing, and home care, which helps cover many needs as people age, and it's actually ranked the third highest in the city with a 7.7 out of 10. The Lodge forms part of the larger Copperfield Hill senior living community with amenities both in the Manor and the Lodge, and people can get assisted living, memory care, or independent housing, and it's set up so residents can age in place, staying in their apartments as their needs change without having to move again and again, which can really make things easier. Folks can pick from several studio layouts, choose to share a suite if that fits their situation, or use furnished apartments, and the rooms can be set up as private, semi-private, or as shared suites for two people to help with costs.
The Lodge has a secured memory care unit and programs to help those with dementia, plus a nurse on staff, 12-16 hours of nursing care each day, and staff providing supervision 24 hours a day, and residents get help with daily activities like bathing and dressing, along with medication management and personal care when they need it. There are onsite medical services you can use, like primary care, psychiatry, therapy, podiatry, optometry, and audiology, but if you already have your own doctor, you can keep seeing them, and the building manages medications and coordinates with health providers as needed. They do allow cats for residents, as long as there's a deposit and vaccinations, and dogs can visit during the day, so people with pets don't need to worry too much about that, and there are secured lockers for rent if someone has more stuff than the apartment can handle.
You'll find community transportation vans and buses that take people to medical appointments, shopping trips, or outings, with an onsite guest suite available for family to visit for a small fee, and there's a four-story glass atrium that brings in a lot of natural light for socializing or events, which is something a lot of people seem to enjoy. There are vaccination clinics held onsite to make things safer, and safety is kept in mind with accessible units, elevators, fire alarms, and smoke detectors as standard features. The Lodge is a Section 202 and Section 8 community, meaning rent is usually about 30% of a resident's monthly income, so people with lower incomes have a chance to live here, and all areas, including residences, are non-smoking.
Housekeeping and laundry services are available, and residents get their meals cooked on site and served in the dining room, with breakfast made to order, as well as lunch and dinner every day, so you don't have to cook if you don't want to. Activities are coordinated by a Life Enrichment Coordinator, who comes up with things like exercise, arts and crafts, games, movies, music programs, and other events, and both community-sponsored and resident-run clubs happen throughout the week to keep everyone engaged. There's a little library, a fitness and wellness room, a beauty salon and barber, a gaming room, a garden, outdoor space for walking or sitting, walking paths, a business room, and also spiritual engagement programs, including Bible study, non-denominational services, and personal meetings with a Community Pastor.
Copperfield Hill The Lodge stays connected to the Manor through a skyway, which makes it easier for residents to get around and take part in larger events, and the community sits close to local shops and restaurants like Walgreens, Big Louie's Bar & Grill, and Spyhouse Coffee, with medical centers nearby such as Regency Hospital and Northwest Family Physicians PA. Residents can always use the 24-hour call system for help, and the secure memory care unit keeps those at risk of wandering safe. Every part of the building is designed to make sure people can remain as independent as possible while still getting the support they need as things change with age.
