Senior Suites

Senior Suites at Sakakawea sits at 813 7th St NE in Hazen, North Dakota, where you'll find 34 licensed basic care beds and a calm place for seniors who want an independent lifestyle but sometimes need a bit of help. The facility offers assisted living, basic care, and memory care services to cover different stages of aging, and it's designed for people who may need support with daily tasks like dressing or bathing but don't need round-the-clock care, with most folks staying in private rooms or suites and some spots even featuring a kitchenette, plus you'll find single-family homes and apartments available depending on what fits best. People living here get housekeeping and laundry services-sometimes included and sometimes for an extra fee-and the staff serves one or two meals a day so no one has to cook if they don't want to, plus there are plenty of recreational and social activities on the calendar to keep everyone engaged, and the whole place tries to keep things cheerful and home-like with a focus on freedom, though always with staff nearby for help with medications or to coordinate appointments. Seniors with dementia or Alzheimer's can stay in special areas of the building made to keep them safe, and they can get therapies meant for memory care, so families get peace of mind knowing their loved ones are in a place set up to reduce wandering and confusion, and for those folks, there's a real effort to keep the environment simple to navigate. The facility offers nursing, 24-hour staffing, personal laundry, parking with electric plug-ins, and most utilities, cable, and internet included, but private phones aren't. Health and home care services can come in from nearby agencies if needed, and transportation for local medical trips gets arranged as well. Senior Suites at Sakakawea's reputation comes from reviews and community awards like Best Meals and Dining, Best Activities, and Most Friendly, and there's always an effort to keep residents involved and happy with lots of choices about daily life, even though it's not a luxury spot but more of a safe and supportive home for older adults who want independence with a safety net. It operates as a state-licensed Basic Care Facility, accepts private payers, but not Medicare unless certified, and works with local senior living advisors to help families choose the right setting, all while offering amenities and services most people expect from a senior living community in a small North Dakota town.
