Edgemont Place in Blaine, MN

4.1
The staff is what I like the most about Edgemont Place. Every 6 weeks, Edgemont Place provides a 1-hour meeting for the residents' loved ones to come and voice any issues they may have in front of the directors. The move-in process was very welcoming and they made it very special.

Personal Care Senior Living Anoka

4.1
They went out of their way to accommodate for her. I really appreciated the flowers that were sent to her funeral, and the gift I received from the admin after. Very caring. I loved Personal Care! Accommodating. Felt like family.

The Homestead at Anoka

4.5
We chose The Homestead for my mother in law because it was clean, the staff were professional, and it has tall ceilings with modern décor and beautiful grounds. They also provide different levels of care so if she progresses she would not have to move. I would recommend to others looking.
