Oak Hill Assisted Living sits on a single floor at 1971 NE First Street in Grand Rapids, Minnesota, and has been serving the community since August 2020. CEO Kyle Hedlund oversees the daily operations, drawing on a background in hospital-based nursing homes, making sure the facility keeps a focus on quality care and leadership. The building features private, furnished rooms, wide walking paths, a cozy garden, and a comfortable community space for activities. Residents can enjoy three healthy meals a day, all-day dining, and unlimited snacks and drinks, plus special meal choices for allergies, diabetes, and other dietary needs. The caring staff offers round-the-clock help with daily tasks like bathing, dressing, transfers, and medication, always keeping safety in mind with a full call system and 24-hour supervision. Housekeeping, laundry, linen service, and dry cleaning are included, and there's help with moving in if needed.
The approach at Oak Hill is person-centered, which means everyone gets care suited to their own needs, preferences, and routines. Residents decide how they spend their day, when to eat, and when to rest, keeping their independence and privacy as much as possible. The team updates families if there's an accident, change in health, or any serious incident, and there's always a manager or nurse ready to step in for emergencies like fires or floods. Residents get to enjoy a lot of activities, art in the Acorn Gallery, wellness programs, movie nights, outings, and even resident-run events, plus the barber/salon, arts room, transportation, parking, and a strong emergency alert system.
The dining room is a common spot to meet, but there are other spaces for both fun and quiet time. The garden and walking paths make it easy to get outside, and a flexible visiting policy means family and friends can drop by day or night with no set hours. There's a close, family feel here, with caregivers who really get to know each person and encourage everyone to share their stories and friendships. Oak Hill embraces each resident's life history, honors their choices, celebrates their dignity, and aims to lift spirits with kindness and respect every day. Spread over a comfortable, accessible layout, the facility supports seniors needing some daily help and those who want a supportive lifestyle with care, but also some independence and space, offering everything from help with daily living to memory care, nursing needs, independent living, and continuing care. Oak Hill does not have Better Business Bureau accreditation, but keeps clear contact options for families, with email, phone, and fax for business needs.
