Fairmont Grand Manor I sits in Rapid City close to hospitals and doctors, offering a comfortable setting with help always nearby thanks to a fully trained, friendly staff who seem to keep things running smoothly day and night, always willing to help with daily needs like medication, bathing, dressing, meal prep, and getting from beds to wheelchairs or handling medical needs like insulin checks or incontinence, so seniors don't have to worry as much about those details. The building's got two stories and only 16 beds, so it feels a bit more personal and calm, with a choice of small but well-designed studios, practical semi-private rooms, or one-bedroom units, all with the comfort of telephone access and emergency alert systems. There's no confusion over what's included-meals are provided, made to fit special diets, and the dining area, private dining, showings in the theater room, games room, bistro, and clean indoor spaces offer more than enough places for meals, visiting, or movie nights that encourage everybody to get out and talk together without needing to go far.
People come here for both assisted living and memory care, which includes a specialized dementia and Alzheimer's care unit that seems to run well, so families who visit or stay involved often find the staff-nurses, CNAs, LPNs/LVNs, and RNs-regularly provide support and keep the whole operation clean and orderly. Suites are furnished but can be arranged to make them feel like home, and there's housekeeping, laundry, dry cleaning, plus move-in coordination to help new residents settle in. While the place doesn't allow pets, it does offer extras like case management, a concierge, home health services, and transportation for errands or doctor visits, with options easily available for long-term stays or stable commitments, and the monthly cost usually lands somewhere between $4,000 and $4,999.
The friendly, joyful staff helps create an easygoing, welcoming atmosphere, which makes it a good spot for seniors wanting a sense of belonging, especially since daily activities-educational, social, and entertaining-are always scheduled to promote social time and movement. The non-ambulatory care and wheelchair-accessibility make sure those who need extra help won't feel left out of daily life and activities. The facility keeps 24/7 security and supervision in place, and families can stay in the loop through staff who support caregiver involvement. The community isn't pet-friendly and doesn't post online reviews, but it does offer Wi-Fi, parking, walking trails, and neat little extras like a bistro or movie nights so folks can make lasting friendships. Licensed under #10760 and meeting assisted living requirements in Pennington County, Fairmont Grand Manor I supports seniors with a range of care, safety, and social options meant to help them maintain independence as long as possible in a stable, stress-free space.
