Good Samaritan Society - Mikkelsen Manor

Good Samaritan Society - Mikkelsen Manor sits at 725 Fuller Drive in Windom, Minnesota, and offers a medium-sized, welcoming place for seniors who need assisted living or specialized care, so you'll find both independent seniors and those who need help with daily activities like bathing, dressing, and managing medication. The community has a connection with the Good Samaritan Society, which means it follows a tradition of supporting seniors with dignity and care rooted in Christian values, and it does so by providing different apartment options, like senior apartments, twin homes, or duplexes for those who want more independence, but it also has more hands-on care for people who need it, including memory care for those with dementia, men's behavioral care, and care for Huntington's Disease, with carefully designed environments that help residents feel at ease and lower confusion or wandering. People who live here get access to skilled nursing, help from hospice aides, nurse support, hospice care, bereavement services, and a variety of social services, so families know there's a whole network of care in place, and not to forget the therapy services like rehabilitation, physical therapy, occupational therapy, wound care, and pain management for those who need them. Residents can get home-based services if they want to remain at home, including home health visits, basic home care, telehealth, and even respite care when caregivers need a break, plus adult day services and child daycare, which is helpful for families who need flexibility. The buildings here hold private and semi-private rooms with features like in-room cable TV, telephones, accessible bathrooms, kitchenettes, emergency call systems, and regular maid service, while outside the apartments you'll find walking paths, a garden, indoor and public community areas like a library, game room, sunroom, and a big living space with a fireplace, so there's plenty of space to socialize or just relax. Mikkelsen Manor has staff available round the clock to help out, including with medication, transfers, and any mobility issues, with 24-hour supervision and emergency alert systems, and they offer meal plans that accommodate people who have allergies or diabetes and allow meals any time of day, with a focus on chef-prepared, healthy food. For staying active, there's a fitness center and wellness programs, plus activities like movie nights, arts and crafts in the art room, social events, religious programs, and outreach opportunities-whether it's community-run or resident-organized. Extra amenities help make life easier, with a salon and barber shop, laundry and dry cleaning, transportation, a convenience market, a mail and post room, and regular maintenance services taken care of by staff, so residents can live with less hassle. The community lets families stay involved with family outreach and education, and there's move-in support to help get settled. Seniors here can take part in devotional activities onsite and benefit from supportive spiritual care. Good Samaritan Society - Mikkelsen Manor is recognized with awards like Best of Senior Living and offers resources for veterans who might use VA aid and attendance benefits, and since it's open daily from 8am to 4:30pm, families have plenty of opportunities to visit an environment that feels peaceful, caring, and safe.
