Traditions of Preston sits in Preston, Minnesota, and this small, home-like community focuses on local traditions while supporting independent seniors. The dedicated staff are on site 24 hours a day, offering personalized care that covers everything from medication help and diabetic care to incontinence care and one-person transfer assistance. There's a range of different apartments to pick from-efficient studios, bigger one-bedroom and two-bedroom spaces, all with large closets, private bathrooms with ADA-accessible showers, and kitchenettes in the assisted living apartments that have a microwave, refrigerator, and sink, so there's enough space and function for daily living needs. The community serves two home-cooked meals every day-lunch and dinner in a sunny, restaurant-style dining room-with a continental breakfast set out each morning in the community room, and the cafe always has a homey feel, with staff preparing and serving meals while residents catch up. Seniors also enjoy 24-hour access to a community kitchenette and can use a free, on-site laundry room and weekly housekeeping, which does help a lot.
Amenities at Traditions of Preston cover a lot, with indoor and outdoor spaces for social gatherings, a spa room to relax, open family rooms for visits, resident parking right on the grounds, and cable and telephone hookups in every apartment, so life stays connected. There's wheelchair-accessible showers, ADA-friendly layouts, and open visiting policies, so friends and family can drop in comfortably. The staff can check blood sugar for those taking diabetes medicine, and there's an on-call nurse, plus skilled nursing if needed. The community runs many activities, offers in-house religious and devotional services, and even has beautician services right on site, so folks don't have to go far for a haircut or to meet with neighbors.
