I think they are doing a good job.

I think they are doing a good job. Any issues we are having are more with my loved one than the facility itself. Cottagewood is a great place. The staff is friendly. Another really good thing is they have rules about pets, you can bring a small dog or some cats, we were told initially that because it was overweight for the limit, but they let him bring his dog anyway, they agreed to give it a chance on a trial basis. It's hard to give an overall rating since other places we saw were a little more upscale, and fancy, this was a little more down to earth feeling.

Poor Care at the Glenn Cottages

My mom has been @ The Glenn Cottages for a few months now. 1st her electric razor disappeared. Then PJs worth $50. Recently a $150 hooded cable knit sweater from Ireland disappeared along with a hoodie. One day magazines were spread around her chair on the floor. Fall risk. Yesterday I stopped by at 1:30 pm and she didn’t have her teeth, which meant she had 2 meals without them. She also didn’t have her hearing aides. Sometimes she has someone else's glasses on. Today no glasses. D/T being a fall risk she is also supposed to have hospital socks with grippers or shoes. Neither today. She recently broke her hip @The Glenn. When I voice my concerns I am told by staff that I have been warned multiple times not to talk to staff. (Not true). The director stated they had young girls working there and she was afraid of them quitting. She did ask me not to talk to staff at that time. I should be able to advocate for my mother. She’s moving as soon as we can find another place.

Tips for evaluating your community options

Safety is a primary concern when seniors and their families look for Assisted Living. To ensure that a community meets your needs and expectations, we recommend that seniors and family members:

  • Tour the location: Touring allows you to speak to current residents and staff, and helps you confirm the accuracy of the community description and photos. Use our touring checklist to help guide your visit.

  • Confirm the availability of required services: Before you commit, make sure that the community offers all the services your senior needs, and that those services can be provided within your budget.

  • Know the Minnesota regulations for Assisted Living: Each state has its own laws and inspections processes to ensure seniors reside in a safe environment. Depending on your state, you may even be able to look up inspection reports for the community(ies) you’re considering. Learn more about Minnesota regulations for Assisted Living.
