Gracewood of Highland Park in St. Paul offers assisted-living services designed for residents who need daily support as well as ongoing clinical oversight. Short-term respite stays are available, which can be helpful for family caregivers who need a temporary break, and the staff is trained to handle diabetes management and incontinence care. Residents have access to an on-site nurse, a visiting doctor, and therapy professionals in the areas of speech, physical, and occupational health. Medication management is handled through an electronic medication administration record, reducing dosing errors and improving documentation. The entire residence is a secured community, adding a layer of protection for individuals who may be prone to wandering.

Additional healthcare resources on the campus include hospice coordination, ambulatory assistance, and podiatry services. Gracewood also uses Care Innovations QuietCare and Skynet technology to monitor resident well-being discreetly and to flag changes in daily patterns for early intervention. Memory care programs are available for those with cognitive impairment, and the community is licensed to serve memory-care-only residents if needed. These medical features are backed by 24-hour staffing so help is available whenever it is required.

Apartments come with utilities included, air conditioning, cable or satellite TV connections, and Wi-Fi, but individual units vary and not every feature is present in every residence. Some floor plans are handicap accessible and include in-unit washers and dryers, and select apartments look onto a central fireplace or outdoor areas. Parking is available for residents who maintain a vehicle, and Skynet technology is integrated into the building infrastructure for safety monitoring.

Dining is provided three times a day, and the kitchen offers all-day dining options for residents who prefer flexible meal times. Menus focus on balanced nutrition, and healthy snacks are available between meals. Special diets are accommodated where possible, and staff members coordinate with medical professionals to ensure meals align with physician-ordered dietary plans.

Residents have access to an activity center, library and computer lounge, and raised garden beds for seasonal planting. Social opportunities include clubs, community outings, birthday parties, live-music events, arts and crafts workshops, and reminiscence or sensory-based programs designed to stimulate memory and engagement. These on-site amenities complement the clinical services, supporting overall well-being through daily structure and social interaction.
