Heaven Homes in Minneapolis, Minnesota, offers a range of care for adults 18 and older, including those with mental and physical disabilities, and it's been open for about three years now, set up as a licensed assisted living facility with a focus on compassion, integrity, and supporting each person's choices. The community stays small, so residents know each other and staff well, and there's 24-hour onsite staff for safety and help whenever needed, whether it's bathing, dressing, getting around, or medication management, and they even coordinate with healthcare providers when needed. Heaven Homes is a continuing care retirement community, meaning people can move in for independent living, assisted living, or memory care, and stay there as their needs change, even after hospital stays, with skilled nursing and rehabilitation available-so residents don't have to worry about moving somewhere else as they age or their health changes.
Special programs like "Memory Care," "Assisted Living," and "Skilled Nursing" are each set up for unique needs, so someone with dementia or Alzheimer's gets secure spaces, memory-enhancing activities, and round-the-clock support, while others might focus more on social activities, movement, and healthy independence. For meals, Heaven Homes provides three a day, with care for special diets like diabetes or allergies, and residents can join movie nights, daily activities, and community-sponsored programs, all set up in furnished rooms, with emergency alert systems, secure entry points, and easy-to-navigate paths and walking gardens for fresh air.
There's also a full range of amenities designed for comfort and well-being, whether someone needs privacy in a room, time in the common areas, easy access to housekeeping, laundry, or event spaces, or just wants to be outdoors for a bit in the garden. Staff speak English and help with everything from daily movement to transportation, making sure people with disabilities or complex health conditions can still get out for appointments or just enjoy the city. The lab director, Kathleen Meyer, manages services that include information and new facilities like labs, and the facility provides regular updates on available lab services, with extra features for residents or family who want more information about care and support.
The vision at Heaven Homes stays steady-care that both respects each person's individuality and supports their daily lives, with attention to safety, access to healthcare, and a warm, engaged environment that keeps people connected. Residents get help with as much or as little as they need, and whether someone comes for memory care, assisted living, independent living, or skilled nursing, the aim's always to keep life familiar, safe, and as independent as possible, and to help everyone feel at home.
