New Perspective Arden Hills in Arden Hills, Minnesota, offers three levels of residential care—Independent Living, Assisted Living, and Memory Care for residents with moderate dementia. The community is structured so that changing medical needs can be managed without requiring a disruptive move, allowing residents to age in place while receiving the appropriate level of oversight.
Clinical support is anchored by an RN or LPN on staff and a nurse available 24/7 by phone. All employees undergo background checks, and an awake night shift maintains continuous monitoring. Safety measures include door alarms, a fenced rear area, and pull-cord alert systems. An on-site therapy room helps residents follow prescribed rehabilitation plans. For personal care, staff can provide full assistance with bathing, dressing, eating, and toileting. Mobility needs ranging from standby supervision to two-person or full Hoyer-lift transfers are accommodated, along with walker and wheelchair support. An activity director coordinates cognitively and physically engaging programs throughout the week.
Apartments are available in several layouts, some featuring private bathrooms, independent temperature controls, in-unit laundry, and cable service. Routine housekeeping is included, and linen service helps maintain a clean environment. Because floor plans vary, not every unit contains every feature, so families should confirm details during a tour.
Dining options are flexible. Residents may choose from a set menu, order meals on demand, request snacks at any time, or dine privately in their apartments. A private dining room is also available for family gatherings. The culinary team manages specialized diets and texture modifications to support individual health plans.
Community amenities include resident parking, concierge assistance, an exercise room, wellness center, movie room, library, pool, barber and beauty services, internet access, and landscaped communal gardens. Scheduled transportation makes local appointments and outings easier. Special-interest clubs and on-site religious services add to daily engagement. Pets are allowed; it’s a good idea to check with the community during your visit to see if your pet will be allowed.
