Ecumen Meadows sits in Worthington, MN, and offers a range of living options like Independent Living, Assisted Living, Memory Care, Affordable Housing, Long-term Care, Short-Term Transitional Care, and Respite Care, so people can get just the help they need, and a lot of folks find the maintenance-free apartments and suites make life a little easier since there's housekeeping and laundry offered, and the rooms come furnished, often with phones and safety systems for peace of mind, and many say the staff keeps the place feeling friendly and caring, always ready to lend a hand with dressing, bathing, or moving around, especially for folks who don't get around easily. There are services like medication management, incontinence care, diabetic care, non-ambulatory care, and even hospice care with Mosaic Moments, all managed with coordination between healthcare providers who make regular check-ins, and when people need it, outpatient therapy and on-site physicians are sometimes available, plus transport can be arranged for doctor's visits or errands.
Residents keep active with fitness centers, walking paths, arts rooms, gardens, community events, movie nights, and there's both resident-run activities and community-sponsored activities along with devotional and offsite options, and in the shared lounges and common areas or library it's easy to socialize or grab some quiet time. Those who live in the memory care suites or need dementia support get supervised care in a setting built for safety and engagement, and a 24-hour call system gives families reassurance. There's all-day dining with meals suited for special diets-like diabetic and allergy-sensitive options-and meal service for those who need extra help, plus the dining rooms are good for gathering with others. Pets are welcome, and people who need companion services or even Meals on Wheels can get those too. The place gets described as warm and inviting with helpful, joyful, and kind staff, and the community is set up for comfort but also for supporting digital communication, so folks can stay connected with friends and family online. Extra support like Adult Day Services, Home Care, Transportation, and care innovation round out the list of offerings, and Ecumen Meadows links to other Ecumen locations and home or hospice care offices in Duluth, Litchfield, and Mankato, so there are a few ways to get the right care if needs change. Spacious grounds, covered parking, barber/salon, and a greeting lounge add to the comfort for people who live here, and the floor plans come in a variety of sizes, so most people can find something that works for them.
