Res Care At Nine Mile Creek I sits on a quiet cul-de-sac in Bloomington, Minnesota, right by Moir Park and along the walking paths near Nine Mile Creek, and you get a real sense of peace with the scenic backyard looking over a lake, a spacious deck, patio, and cozy fireplace giving everyone spots to relax both inside and out, and if you like a more home-like setting where you're not just another number, this place only has six single-bedroom units, all private, so there's a small group and a quiet atmosphere. The staff, called the Assisted Living Manager and a small team of up to ten, provide help with daily living like bathing, dressing, transfers, and medication management, there's meals prepared for different dietary needs including diabetes and allergies, and they take care of the housekeeping, laundry, and even dry cleaning, which can make things a lot easier day by day. The building is wheelchair accessible, and non-ambulatory residents can get around fine, while a 24-hour call system and supervision give some extra safety and reassurance throughout the day and night.
There's a range of care types, including general assisted living, memory support in the Creekside Memory Care Suites for people with Alzheimer's or dementia, hospice care if that's needed, and respite care where someone can stay for a short recovery after an illness or surgery. The place has individually licensed Comprehensive Home Care services under Minnesota state rules, but it might not take Medicare unless certified, and payment options include CADI, Elderly Waiver, long-term care insurance, and private pay. Local agencies like the Department of Aging or Veteran's Services help with oversight.
The apartments come furnished with kitchenettes, cable TV, WiFi, and telephone, and the staff arrange transportation and housekeeping, so families don't have to worry as much about those details, and there's support for medical appointments and other outings. The community has both staff-led and resident-run activities, movie nights, an arts room, and walking paths, aiming to cover all sides of wellness-physical, mental, and social. The dining room lets residents eat meals throughout the day with different options to fit preferences and health needs.
Res Care At Nine Mile Creek I keeps an open line with families and develops individualized care plans alongside residents and their healthcare professionals, trying to keep everyone informed and involved, and the staff focus on making care feel respectful while supporting independence as much as possible.

The location's close to shopping and cultural spots in Bloomington, which adds convenience, while the garden and quiet surroundings make for a pleasant and secure place to live. The community's part of the Residential Care Providers Network, and dedicated to following up-to-date care standards and state regulations so residents and their families get reliable support and peace of mind.
