Mill Street Residence sits in Fergus Falls, MN and serves seniors with a mix of independent and assisted living options; some folks want maintenance-free apartments while others need help with things like bathing, dressing, and medication management, and the staff is trained and on-site all day and night, so nobody's ever far from a friendly hand or healthcare support, and there's a full-time registered nurse watching over resident care. The apartments come in several floor plans-there are studios, one-bedrooms, one-bedrooms with a den, and even two-bedroom, two-bathroom options, and every unit has its own bathroom with a walk-in shower, plus a kitchenette, refrigerator, and microwave, and residents can choose furnished or unfurnished, with private bath or shower in every apartment, and there are handicap-accessible units-some even have patios or balconies. Safety features include pendant-style emergency call systems and low-mounted windows for easy views, and the heating and air conditioning is individually controlled, so everyone keeps as warm or cool as they like. Meals get cooked fresh every day, served three times a day, and there's a meal plan if somebody wants a routine, with cooks preparing tasty food, including for different dietary needs.
Housekeeping comes each week, helping with chores and laundry for linens and towels, and there's a personal laundry service, too. Residents have access to a beauty shop right on site, while the whirlpool tub in the spa room offers a bit of comfort, and gardens and outdoor areas give folks a quiet place to relax or visit. The community encourages its residents to stay involved, so there's a full schedule with things like card games, crafts, exercise classes, live music, planned outings to places like Butterfly Park and Glendalough State Park, and intergenerational activities with local schools, so seniors stay active and make friends. The staff pays attention to both physical and emotional health-there's ongoing assessments and a licensed social worker to support residents, with everyone getting a personalized care plan that fits their own lifestyle and health needs. Transportation's available for shopping trips or doctor visits, with a van that has a wheelchair lift for accessibility.
People can count on help with managing diabetes, incontinence, or if they have trouble walking and need special care, and the care team, including home care staff, shows a lot of commitment-some even earned the DAISY Award in health care. Apartments are cozy and homey, with mini-blinds, familiar comforts, and floor plans to suit most needs. The place gets described as warm and inviting, with a family-like environment, and a focus on freedom and safety so people live as fully as they can, doing what they enjoy with support close by whenever it's needed.
