Ravoux Hi-Rise

Ravoux Hi Rise is an assisted living community with 8 floors and 220 units, offering studio and one-bedroom apartments to seniors in the St. Paul Public Housing community in Ramsey County. The building supports independent living with help for daily needs like bathing, grooming, dressing, and medication management, and there's always a staff member on-site to respond to emergencies or help move residents from bed to wheelchair. Residents can access special care like diabetic support, memory care for dementia, non-ambulatory care, and incontinence care, and routine health and support assessments are done by a nurse or social worker. Meals made with nutritious ingredients are served daily and there's a dining area, plus help with housekeeping and laundry to make daily chores easier. A smoke-free policy promotes healthy living, and small pets are allowed, with some rules to check. Ravoux Hi Rise has common indoor spaces, a patio, beauty and barber shop, laundry rooms, a community room, and a controlled entry with elevators, making it easier for residents to get around and feel safe. The staff offers spiritual activities, social and mental programs, devotional times, and off-site events to support emotional and spiritual needs. Programs like Congregate Housing Services (CHSP) and Customized Living aim to keep seniors comfortable and resilient, and there's help connecting to social services and resources for mental health and substance use disorder if needed. Subsidized rent is based on income and there's a public housing waiting list as well as information for applying, reporting changes for Section 8 or HCV programs, and managing rent and occupancy. There's free parking, 24-hour emergency response, on-call nursing consultation, and a response system. Residents get support to stay independent, safe, clean, and dignified rather than having to move to a nursing home. Ravoux Hi Rise is part of a larger network with research programs, advocacy, and community events, and has a mission to walk with families through care and connection. Housing policies, inspections, community service requirements, resident groups, and online rent payment are part of daily life here, and residents often share stories about how their daily lives are improved with help, comfort, and a welcoming atmosphere.
