Meadow Ridge Senior Living sits in a New Hope, Minnesota neighborhood where you'll see parks and places to eat nearby, and it's also close to hospitals and pharmacies for convenience if something comes up, which folks find helpful. This senior living community offers both assisted living and memory care, and the team uses personalized care plans so nurses, aides, and staff all try to notice what each person needs from the first day, whether someone needs help with medicine, bathing, or getting around the building. The building has two floors, wide easy-to-use elevators, and safety features like daily checks, 24-hour staff, and a pendant call system if anyone needs help fast, and these sorts of things help families feel more at ease.
The apartments are comfortable and designed to feel like home, plus weekly cleaning and linen change makes upkeep manageable. Residents sitting down to meals get fresh, chef-prepared food every day, with a continental breakfast and two restaurant-style meals that keep nutrition in mind but still taste good, and for special days, families can join in private dining rooms so it still feels a bit like home. Meadow Ridge's activities, which staff and an Activity Director put together based on what residents like-things like live music, birthday celebrations, outings for shopping, and fitness therapy programs-keep everyone active if they want, while regular events and games make it easy for folks to socialize or stay busy. For active seniors, there's independent living that means less worry about daily chores but still a social place to live, while memory care offers a safe space with programs and therapies that help folks living with memory challenges, like Alzheimer's or dementia, feel comfortable and secure without feeling watched or fussed over.
The staff manages medication, coordinates with doctors, and helps with day-to-day tasks as needed. There's on-site nursing support for 12-16 hours a day, with after-hours help over the phone, and if someone needs more care at home, home health aide packages offer support based on the number of visits and hours a person's likely to need. Getting around's a bit easier here, too, because Meadow Ridge provides transportation for group outings and shopping, with a shuttle bus for planned trips if anyone wants to go somewhere as a group. Laundry's complimentary, there's apartment maintenance, and a list of à la carte services-from bathing help or extra housekeeping to guest meals and beauty or barber services-means people can pick what sort of help or activities they're looking for as health and needs change.
The facility brings together high marks for friendly, helpful staff and has received awards for great care and an active, welcoming environment where people feel respected and listened to, and the staff prides themselves on learning what makes each resident feel comfortable and at home. Meadow Ridge is managed by Odom Health & Wellness and keeps weekday hours from 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM, so the building and programs often reflect their approach to health and care. Residents find daily life here a mix of independence, support, and a good dose of social fun, which, when combined with practical services, nutritious meals, easy transportation, and safety checks, offers a worry-free lifestyle that tries to meet people where they are.
