Augustana Emerald Crest Burnsv

Augustana Emerald Crest Burnsv has a quiet, homey setting that's made for seniors who need different levels of care, with a main focus on dementia and memory care, and the grounds have a peaceful fenced backyard, ponds, benches, and places to walk or just sit. The community helps older adults with many services, like assisted living, independent living, memory care, skilled nursing, and even short-term or respite stays, and it's managed by Cassia. Nurses are on-site during the week, and there's always someone to help any hour of the day or night, with a 24-hour call system built in, and staff help with dressing, bathing, meals, medicine, and getting around. Seniors with Alzheimer's and dementia get round-the-clock care, special safety features, memory-enhancing activities, and safe supervision, and there are programs for mild cognitive trouble, along with help for things like diabetes or incontinence. People who live here can stay comfortable with air conditioning, have wheelchair access, and use ground-floor units, and the rooms come furnished with kitchenettes for light cooking if someone feels up to it. Semi-private one-bedroom options are available for assisted living, along with laundry, housekeeping, and medication management, plus they make it simple to get clean clothes because dry cleaning is available too. There's a library, gym, pool and hot tub, chapel, beauty salon, arts and crafts room, and movie nights, with plenty of resident events and activities including karaoke, outings, live music, and religious services for different faiths, and pets like dogs and cats are welcome. Common areas inside and out let everyone relax, and day trips outside the community keep things interesting for those who want a little adventure. Meal services can handle special diets, including no salt or no sugar, guest dining, and all-day dining, and staff will help residents move in and get settled, with parking and transportation to appointments or errands. Support is there for those who want to keep living on their own but may need some backup over time, including help from local providers like Lightcare Group Homes, Havenwood of Burnsville, Visiting Angels, Home Instead Senior Care, Senior Helpers, Accurate Homes, Valley Ridge, Fisher Sours, Metropolitan Living, and Diamonds Home Care Services. The staff speak English, and everything is done with a focus on comfort, dignity, and helping people stay as independent as possible for as long as possible.
