Evensong Manor sits in Brooklyn Park, MN, at 6264 Yukon Ave N, and has room for up to five people who need assisted living. The place has a focus on both daily living help and spiritual care, offering things like daily activity programs, medication management, meals cooked with organic food, help with bathing and dressing, and 24-hour supervision from nurses for emergencies, so if someone needs help at any time they can get it. Private rooms and shared spaces come furnished, with things like kitchenettes, air conditioning, private bathrooms, phones, internet, and cable, and people can use community gardens, walking paths, a family dining room with all-day meal service, gardens, an arts room, and a barber or salon. Residents sit down together for meals, including options for special diets like diabetes or allergies, and family members can join for certain dinners. The Manor allows people to bring approved cats and sometimes several cats live on the property, which some people find comforting, and there's a wander alarm and emergency alert system for safety.
Evensong Manor takes care of housekeeping, linen, laundry, and cooking, so residents don't have to worry about those chores, and the nursing staff helps with medication, personal care, and getting dressed if needed. Different levels of care and support help people stay as independent as possible, and pricing changes based on those care needs, with one-bedroom rooms starting at $10,000 a month, paid by private pay, private insurance, or programs like Medicaid Waiver, EW, CADI, and GRH for Minnesota residents. Transportation is offered for doctor visits or errands, and daily activities like movies, arts, and resident-run programs help people meet others and keep busy, while outings and events encourage social time. Spiritual needs are met with prayer and worship areas, an Anglican evensong tradition, and spaces for choir and religious gatherings, and the Manor offers therapy support, memory care for Alzheimer's and dementia, and specialized diabetic care.
Informational resources help families check on care openings or available jobs, and the facility supports long-term residential care, so people don't have to leave if they need more help later on. Staff help residents with moving in, coordinating health care, and making sure their rooms meet each person's needs. The place has a mix of positive and negative reviews, with 45% of people giving five stars and 33% giving one star, and the average says the Manor does have some strong points and some downsides. Overall, Evensong Manor is an assisted living choice for seniors wanting support with daily tasks and spiritual care, in a small, home-like setting.
