The Kenwood offers both assisted living and independent living options, giving residents the opportunity to select the level of day-to-day support that fits their needs. Assisted living residents receive help with activities such as medication management, bathing, and dressing, while independent living tenants can maintain a more self-directed lifestyle with the reassurance that professional assistance is available on campus if health needs change.
Beyond the core living options, the community provides short-term respite stays, diabetes management, and on-site speech therapy. An occupational therapist and physical therapist visit the property, and a podiatrist is available for routine foot care. Incontinence support and ambulatory care are in place to help residents remain comfortable and mobile. Areas have been designed specifically to accommodate memory loss, and staff are trained to work in a memory-friendly setting to reduce confusion and promote safety.
Private and semi-private apartments are available, with layouts that may include wheelchair-accessible showers, outdoor views, or proximity to common spaces. Select units accept pets, and exterior landscaped areas allow residents and their animals to get fresh air. On-site parking is offered for those who still drive. Because floor plans and features vary, not every accommodation includes every amenity mentioned.
Three meals are prepared daily, and menus feature standard and vegetarian selections. Staff can adjust portions or preparation methods to align with physician-ordered dietary restrictions, including low-sugar or low-sodium needs. Dining rooms are configured for easy mobility, and assistance is available for residents who require help cutting food or monitoring intake.
Underground parking protects vehicles from Minneapolis weather and provides direct interior access to the main building. It's a good idea to check with the community during your visit to see if your pet will be allowed.
