Lyngblomsten Services runs two main campuses in Minnesota, one in Como Park and one in Lino Lakes, offering care and housing for older adults since 1906 with a strong Christian nonprofit mission focused on compassion and dignity. People can find a wide range of living options here, including independent apartments, assisted living for those who need daily help, a skilled nursing Care Center, specialized memory care, and even subsidized and market-rate housing at both locations. The community has pet-friendly policies that let residents bring small dogs and cats up to 20 pounds with a deposit, and there's support to help new residents move in and settle. The Heritage apartments and Lyngblomsten apartments give folks choices of studios, one-bedroom, and two-bedroom rentals, while off-campus cottages and townhomes are available as well, and lease terms include month-to-month and required security deposits.
This community includes amenities like in-building laundry, linen services, underground parking, guest rooms, a library, on-site Wi-Fi, activity rooms, arts room, barber and beauty salon, walking paths, and space for community events or spiritual activities, plus regular transportation and grocery delivery options. Dining rooms serve meals all day, with diets to fit allergies or diabetes, plus housekeeping and laundry service to take care of chores. Lyngblomsten has a quiet care response system, emergency call systems, and 24-hour supervision in assisted living and the Care Center, making sure support is always nearby, and they help with medicine, bathing, dressing, moving around, and more for people who need it, whether it's for rehab, long-term, or short-term stays. They have respite care to help families and short stay programs, like The Gathering, so caregivers can get a break, and special programs for people with Parkinson's or those needing palliative or secure memory care.
Lyngblomsten aims to create a sense of community and belonging, with social activities, movie nights, community news, and connection to churches, senior centers, and area health resources. They encourage everyone-residents, families, and employees-to make choices, stay included, and live with a sense of purpose while staying as independent as possible. The staff supports each person with dignity and person-centered care, and programs like the Care Ministry Network, the Parish Nurse Network, and caregiver resources reach beyond the campus to help older adults who still live in their own homes. There's a focus on accessible building features so people can get around easily, and they accept Medicaid and Medicare for those who need financial help. They support spiritual wellness and value the whole person, encouraging staff to grow and think creatively, and involve family, volunteers, and community groups to help build a welcoming place where people can age in place, moving between different types of care as their needs change.
