Fargo Maple View

Fargo Maple View sits in a craftsman-style building built in 2014 and offers specialized memory care for seniors with Alzheimer's and other forms of dementia or cognitive memory issues, and folks there find a homelike setting with large windows, two sunrooms and a spacious great room where everyone eats and does most group activities, and the halls give a clear view so staff can safely monitor residents. It doesn't provide nursing or assisted living beds, but has 38 basic care beds and offers all-inclusive daily flat rates which can make things simpler for families figuring out costs, and besides long-term memory care, people can come just for respite care or adult day services. Staff at Fargo Maple View work around the clock, with over 40 employees including RNs, LPNs, CNAs, a full kitchen crew, drivers, and a beautician, and everyone's specially trained to help those with memory problems, with a strong focus on keeping people safe and maintaining their comfort and dignity. The person-centered, failure-free approach aims to help residents always feel valued and included, giving a sense of belonging and purpose, and they use Montessori-based programs to encourage independence, positivity, and keep minds working. There are plenty of activities to keep people busy and connected, from devotional services right on site, organized social and educational events, healthy movement, and a range of brain-challenging activities set up to help everyone stay active in their own way. There are no nursing beds here, but folks can find community amenities like natural sunlight in all private rooms, meals, structured group time, and support for individual wellness goals, and things are arranged so that residents can enjoy a familiar routine, social connections, and an environment that helps them feel both safe and seen. The building is carefully secured and designed for people with memory problems, which also means it aims to reduce confusion and make daily life as smooth as possible. They're independently owned and part of Maple View Memory Care Communities with six spots across North Dakota, and folks who tour can talk to Pattie Middendorp, the facility's director and staff about how care plans work. People get personalized attention, privacy, and a sense of routine, and families can rest a little easier knowing the team there is part of the North Dakota Long Term Care Association and provides in-house therapies and health care as needed. The community keeps a friendly feel with plenty of sunlight, good meals, faith-based resources if wanted, and a flat structure so people always know what to expect, and residents can use Facebook, get info in English, and access services online if needed, and everything's made to help seniors flourish in comfort every day, Monday through Friday from 8:00 AM to 4:30 PM.
