South Grove Lodge Senior Living in Austin, MN offers both Assisted Living and Independent Living. Residents who need daily support can choose Assisted Living with help for activities such as bathing, dressing, and routine health monitoring, while Independent Living is available for those who want a maintenance-free lifestyle but do not require constant assistance.
Medical services are arranged to minimize outside appointments. Short-term respite stays are available, and on-site speech therapy can be scheduled as needed. The community also provides memory care support, hospice coordination, medication management, and access to occupational, physical, and podiatry services. This range allows residents to remain in familiar surroundings even as their health needs change.
Apartments vary in size and layout, with options that may include private bathrooms, basic kitchenettes, and emergency response systems; not every apartment offers all of these features. Utilities, routine maintenance, and common-area housekeeping are provided to reduce daily chores. Residents can furnish their spaces to match personal preferences, and staff members perform scheduled safety checks.
Meals are served three times daily in a central dining room, with menus that are adjusted for dietary restrictions such as low-sodium or diabetic plans. Snacks and beverages are available between meals, and special requests can be accommodated with advance notice. Family members can join residents for meals, and kitchen staff coordinate closely with clinical teams to track nutritional intake when required.
