Sacred Heart Assisted Living, located in Austin, Minnesota, is operated by Sacred Heart Care Center, Inc. and has a certificate of assumed name filed with the Minnesota Secretary of State. The facility offers assisted living apartments under the name Sacred Heart Assisted Living A, and the building is set up to provide a comfortable space with features like semi-private living quarters, small studios with simple, useful designs, and one-bedroom suites. The staff offers care tailored to each resident and uses special names for services or programs you won't see everywhere, and folks can find amenities you expect from assisted living, like a dining room, reading area, theater room, fitness room, flat screen TVs, and a nice landscaped courtyard, as well as a garden for those who like to spend time outside.
There's support for seniors who need help with daily tasks like dressing, bathing, preparing food, and housekeeping, while still staying as independent as possible, and they have staff available day and night, with a 24/7 security system and emergency alert systems in rooms. The facility provides care for people with needs such as dementia, Parkinson's disease, incontinence, and also offers rehabilitation services including physical, occupational, and speech therapy, and a team provides skilled nursing care around the clock. For those needing extra support, Sacred Heart Assisted Living offers spoon feeding, medication administration, help with getting dressed, and custom needs assessment, as well as services within the facility and coordination with outside healthcare providers.
Residents can bring small pets, and there's parking, transportation, and even concierge services available, and for new arrivals, move-in coordination helps things go smoothly. Wheelchair accessibility lets folks with mobility needs get around, and the whole place is set up for safety and comfort, with emergency response, 24-hour supervision, and regular social and recreational activities, movie nights, and resident-run events to help folks stay involved and connected. There's a barber and salon in the building, special dietary options for those who have allergies or health concerns, and laundry and dry cleaning services are part of the package.
Many residents enjoy walking paths, gardening features, and a community garden, and there's a range of living spaces-from private rooms or bedrooms, some with a kitchenette, to semi-private living quarters-so you can pick what fits your lifestyle best. The focus at Sacred Heart Assisted Living is on meeting spiritual, physical, mental, emotional, and social needs through a holistic wellness approach, guided by Catholic values and a community focus. Staff help with the activities of daily living, while making sure everyone still has the chance to keep their independence as much as possible. Emergency systems, medication management, recreational activities, and support for special diets are all part of the routine, and there's always a general information resource for new residents and families who want to learn more about what living at Sacred Heart means.
