Tamarack Court is an assisted living facility at 1511 Delton Ave in Bemidji, MN. The staff prepares meals with organic food and ingredients and serves them in a communal dining room, with all-day dining options and dietary accommodations for allergies and diabetes, and small tables encourage residents to socialize during meals, so people can get to know each other a little more each day. Residents can pick from private suites or shared rooms, each with a private bathroom, kitchenette, air conditioning, and phone and internet access, and the apartments are fully furnished but still let people bring their own treasured belongings to feel more at home. Maintenance, housekeeping, laundry, dry cleaning, and linen services are included, so residents don't have to spend time on chores and can focus their energy on activities, daily routines, and doing what they enjoy.
The community holds resident-run activities, movie nights, community events, and supports engagement with an arts room, walking paths, and a garden, which many find nice for a change of pace, and a barber and salon are available for grooming. Staff provide daily living help like bathing, dressing, and medication management, and there's 24-hour supervision, on-site nurses, home health aides, and round-the-clock call systems with emergency response and safety checks three times a day. Tamarack Court offers transportation to doctor appointments and for personal errands, and can arrange rides for residents as needed, so getting where you need to go isn't a worry.
Living arrangements and care levels are flexible, and services include specialized memory care, nursing home support, independent living, and continuing care retirement options, all focused on personal needs and changes in health. Leadership stays involved in looking after residents' well-being and medication, and common areas provide space to relax or join others. Tamarack Court's goal is to help residents live as independently as they can with the right amount of help, and the setting is designed to take the worry out of daily tasks as much as possible.
