Thorne Crest Senior Living Community, a CCRC in Albert Lea, MN
4.9

Our experience with Thorne Crest was very short. We set up my parents in independent living and shortly after we moved them in one parent started showing major signs of needing to be put in a memory care unit. Thorne Crest has a small memory care unit with a big waiting list. We needed to look for another open location in a memory care unit.

Windcliff Senior Care in Lake City, MN
5.0

My father lived at Windcliff from July 2013 until he passed away in June 2015. I have been a medical professional for over 28 years. We came across information on Windcliff quite accidentally, and it was an answer to our prayers. All of my siblings had a chance to tour the facility, and meet with the owner prior to our making the final decision. As far as we are concerned, it was the only choice for our father to live. He was treated with respect and care that I have never seen before. He was catered to, kept safe, provided nutritious meals, taken to church, and any medical appointments that he needed. We were kept abreast of any changes in behavior, or if the were any other issues. He made friends there. It was a transition for our entire family, what with losing our mother just 3 months prior to our moving dad, and him not understanding why he had to leave his home, but we could not have been happier with our choice of having him live at Windcliff. I can only hope that when it is my time to require a facility, that this one is still available.

The Homestead at Rochester
3.7

I would tell others that they need to really check on the meal programs. The meals come from an outside source and the wait staff sometimes are not very good for this environment of people. The food is not very food and that was one of the things that we were sold on. There are a few things they need improvements on but overall we have been very happy with The Homestead at Rochester.
