Roitenberg Family Assisted Living Residence, over at the Sholom West campus in St. Louis Park, MN, sits on a big, quiet 17-acre spot with plenty of room to walk and enjoy the outdoors. The place has 52 apartments in both studio and one- or two-bedroom sizes, plus 24 memory care apartments set up for folks with Alzheimer's or dementia. The campus makes room for both privacy and community so residents can keep to themselves or join in with others when they want to, and the layout's got wide walkways, indoor connections to all buildings, and nice places outside for sitting or strolling. In the apartments, folks can bring some of their own things, and everything's set up to be easy to get around, with wheelchair accessible showers and full tubs, emergency call systems, and safety pendants.
The community's recognized by Seniorly as a verified senior living spot, and the staff keeps up a good reputation for care and attention. Licensed nurses are there every day-12 hours on weekdays and 8 on weekends, plus staff are awake around the clock to give help or act quick if an emergency comes up. Residents get help with daily needs like bathing, getting dressed, taking their medicine, and moving about if that's needed, and staff can help out with two-person transfers or lifts as needed. There's a wellness clinic and monthly health programs, so everyone gets regular checks and reminders for appointments. Nurses track medicines and coordinate with outside doctors, and if someone needs more support over time, the facility's set up for increasing levels of care, even for issues like incontinence, diabetes (including insulin shots), or if someone's likely to wander or get upset. Memory care takes place in a secured area with alarms and bracelets so no one gets lost, and there's help for behavioral issues too.
Roitenberg offers meals in a dining room where about 15 people gather at a time, and all meals follow kosher rules with no pork served, but folks can pick other choices too if they prefer. The kitchen team serves food and snacks all day, and reviews mention good nutrition and taste. Housekeeping, laundry, utilities, and maintenance all come with the rent. People can relax in indoor common areas or join scheduled activities, and there are beauty and barber services for hair care. Religious services are held for both Christian and Jewish faiths, and there are activities connecting Jewish culture and faith conversations for whoever wants them. The staff arranges group outings and transportation for medical appointments, shopping, or even visits to the nearby parks and cafes like Spyhouse Coffee or Taco Bell, which are just down the street; Walgreens is a mile away, and Park Nicollet Methodist Hospital is just two miles out.
The typical rent starts at about $2,426 monthly for a studio, $3,350 for a one-bedroom, and $4,115 for a two-bedroom spot, with some added fees for higher care needs, second residents, or short stays like respite care. The place supports both male and female residents aged 55 and up, folks who can get around on their own or need a little more help. Roitenberg has a supportive team, a clean atmosphere, and a steady focus on helping seniors feel comfortable, safe, and connected to others for as long as they call it home.
