Pines Homecare Services runs several residential care homes for seniors who need help with daily tasks, offering both assisted living and independent living options in and around Duluth, Minnesota, like Ecumen Lakeshore, Westwood Of Duluth, and Plainview Estates, among others. These homes give 24-hour supervision, protective oversight, and personal services in a setting that feels comfortable and home-like, with rooms ranging from 337 to 629 square feet and choices for one-bedroom or two-bedroom apartments, all housed in a three-story building that opened in 2000 as the area's first assisted living place just for seniors. The facility welcomes pets and comes equipped with kitchens, living rooms, bedrooms, and baths in every apartment, and there's cable or satellite TV, Wi-Fi, and furnished rooms, making sure residents don't feel out of place.
Pines Homecare Services is owned locally by The Edmunds Company, with Ronald and Michael Edmunds leading, and they focus on giving care that matches what each person needs, whether that's help with getting dressed, bathing, medication management, or just being there to make sure everyone's safe, including folks who have some trouble living on their own. Services stretch to home care, home health, hospice, and support with referrals, and they work alongside Progressive Care Therapists, so people get physical and occupational therapy that helps them stay strong and move better. There are fitness classes, health education, and exercise programs to keep everyone active, plus a mental wellness program supporting emotional health.
Dining happens restaurant-style with food that's made for different dietary needs, including diabetes and food allergies, and residents can eat any time because there's an all-day dining room while gardens, walking paths, outdoor spaces, and a beauty salon give folks chances to be outside or get together with others. The community arranges rides for doctor visits, has a library, grocery store, and post office close by, and takes privacy seriously with solid health information policies. Activities fill up the calendar-movie nights, community events, and other happenings run by residents and staff, with plenty of support for transportation, parking, and non-ambulatory care. There's a 24-hour emergency alert and call system to give peace of mind, and everything's built to help folks keep their independence as much as possible with a focus on clear routines, safety, and comfort. Pines Homecare Services has been in senior care management for over 40 years, managing communities in Minnesota and Wisconsin, always keeping residents' choices and well-being front and center, making sure people have both support and freedom to enjoy daily life.
