Ranier Roost

Ranier Roost sits in Ranier, Minnesota, right in a scenic spot with walking paths and gardens where residents can go outdoors or just watch the seasons change, and people always mention that true family feeling you get with Decker's Family Care because they try for a person-centered approach, which is nice when you want someplace where each person's needs really guide the care. The facility covers a lot, offering assisted living, memory care, skilled nursing, outpatient therapy, and rehab, plus there's respite care for those who just need short-term help, and end-of-life support as well. Folks who need support with daily tasks like bathing, dressing, medication, or meals will find help here, and nurses are on staff part-time for skilled needs like medication management or health checks, and you can find wellness support specialists to tailor care plans as people's needs change. The facility's designed with about 23 private and semi-private rooms; some rooms even have a kitchenette if you want more independence, but everyone gets private space. There's cable TV in the common areas, and you can always stop by the gardens. Social programs, games, and outings are regular, and access to local parks makes it easy to stay active or make friends. Ranier Roost supports antibiotic stewardship and keeps up with community health programs, and offers help for both mind and body, including occupational and physical therapy, rehab, and even post-surgery care or support for those facing cancer-that's part of what makes their healthcare provider coordination pretty strong. Families say the direct care staff and on-site director-a registered nurse-are attentive, and the place is open 24/7 for any needs. Meals, laundry, and housekeeping are all handled, while licensed care (state license number 387007) ensures standards are met. You can pay with Medicaid, insurance, checks, or credit cards. Ranier Roost isn't BBB accredited, but it's a steady choice for folks who want person-focused care in a friendly, smaller Minnesota community, and it's one of just two places run by Decker's Family Care, the other being Papermaker's Place. The median cost for assisted living runs around $3,414 per month, and you'll find regular support for personal hygiene, food, and household chores so people can keep as much independence as possible while knowing help's always close.
