Beacon Senior Living - Belmont sits at 1265 Belmont Dr, Saint Paul, MN 55125, and used to be called Hometown Senior Living before joining Beacon Senior Living. The community offers both assisted living and memory care, so you'll see a mix of seniors needing help with daily living as well as those living with dementia or Alzheimer's, and they're set up for long-term stays or short-term respite care. Residents get help with things like meals, bathing, dressing, transfers, taking medicine, managing diabetes, and other healthcare needs, with staff around 24 hours a day and a call system for emergencies. The community works with healthcare providers and has trained staff helping with incontinence care, high-acuity care, diabetic care, and non-ambulatory care, which means folks who can't walk on their own get the support they need.
Rooms come in private or semi-private options, always fully furnished with kitchenettes, cable TV, WiFi, bathtubs, and wheelchair-accessible showers, and housekeeping handles cleaning and linens. There are modern safety features, including sprinkler systems and grab bars, and they've got washers and dryers, so laundry gets taken care of, too. You'll find a big focus on food here, with meals planned and prepared to meet special dietary needs, including diabetes diets and other restrictions, and the kitchens aim to use good, healthy ingredients that taste good. Residents eat in shared dining rooms, and some rooms have their own kitchenettes for more independence.
The memory care program is separate and runs specialized activities and routines for people with memory issues, including ways to reduce confusion and prevent wandering, and there's a dementia waiver for those who need it. For everyone in the community, there are regular activities, both community-sponsored and resident-run, covering things like crafts, games, exercise, education, socializing, and health and wellness, so there's something for minds and bodies. Big common areas, indoor and outdoor spaces, a garden, and a fitness center make it easy to find somewhere comfortable to spend your time or meet with others, and there's free transportation to doctor's appointments and medical visits, so getting out for errands or appointments doesn't have to be hard.
Staff are known for being friendly, helpful, and respectful, and Beacon Senior Living - Belmont aims to keep seniors' dignity, safety, and independence at the center of everything they do. The community is in a quiet, familiar neighborhood in the Minneapolis-St. Paul metro area, and they've partnered with several organizations to make sure residents' care plans fit their needs. Whether someone needs a little help or more full-time support, this place tries to balance care with social engagement and emotional well-being, offering scheduled tours and assessments to figure out what level of help makes sense for each person. The whole aim is to keep life comfortable, safe, and fulfilling, without being pushy or over-promising anything.
