Dakota Hills Housing

Dakota Hills Housing sits in Elgin, North Dakota, and serves as a nonprofit basic care facility offering help to seniors who can do most of their daily activities but need some support, and the place's got a capacity for 33 residents in private apartments that each come with a kitchen, bathroom, living and dining space, which makes things comfortable and home-like, and there's a chapel for quiet times, a therapy room for rehabilitation, a multipurpose room for gatherings, and even an extra bathing room for folks who need assistance. The staff provides skilled nursing care, memory care, Alzheimer's care, and physical, occupational, speech, and respiratory therapies on site, along with help for eating, dressing, bathing, and moving around, and the chaplains are available around the clock if spiritual care is wanted. You'll find options for freshly cooked, restaurant-style meals every day, plus housekeeping, laundry, grooming help, and transportation for social trips or even medical appointments off-site, and with all these services, people can still keep a bit of independence. Cable TV, internet, and phone service come standard in each room, while the facility puts a lot of energy into social activities, programs for belonging, and ways for residents to feel connected, which seems to be a big focus for the place, and the organization sits under the Dakota Hill Housing Corporation, a nonprofit with a local board running things, and they don't take Medicare unless they get the right certification but do accept tax-deductible donations. The center doesn't hide its costs or assets, sharing that in 2023, its expenses ran higher than revenue with $913,782 spent versus $910,574 brought in, and assets were valued at $555,426. Dakota Hills Housing offers long-term care and basic services with transportation, spiritual support, and therapy, aiming to give peace of mind to seniors and families without making things too complicated or overwhelming, and though there aren't nursing or assisted living facility beds, the 33 licensed basic care beds allow a focus on serving each resident's needs with daily routines and some added programs to help people thrive for as long as they're there.
