About Golden Horizons of Sandstone

from Oasis Senior Advisors

Golden Horizons of Sandstone offers two levels of residential support—Assisted Living and Memory Care. Assisted Living residents receive help with everyday tasks such as bathing, dressing, grooming, mobility, and scheduled medication reminders while maintaining the highest level of independence practical. The Memory Care program serves individuals with Alzheimer’s disease and other forms of dementia in a secured setting designed to minimize confusion, encourage familiar routines, and reduce fall risk. Residents can move between these two care levels as their needs change, which allows couples with different support requirements to remain on the same campus.

Comprehensive medical oversight is built into the daily routine. On-site services include diabetes care, medication management, incontinence care, ambulatory assistance, and hospice coordination when appropriate. Licensed nurses work alongside visiting occupational, physical, and speech therapists so that rehabilitative and maintenance therapies take place without residents having to arrange outside appointments. The building is a secured community with features intended to accommodate memory loss, and staff are trained to support residents who wander or display exit-seeking behaviors. Respite and short-term stays can be arranged for individuals recovering from an illness or for family caregivers who need temporary coverage.

Private and companion apartments come with utilities and individual climate control, and many floor plans are handicap accessible. Some units add kitchenettes, balconies, patios, decks, or proximity to a central fireplace in a common lounge. The property is pet-friendly and has on-site parking, outdoor seating areas, and air-conditioned interiors. Because features vary by unit, families should confirm the details of specific accommodations during the tour process.

Dining is available throughout the day with three scheduled meals plus anytime service for those who prefer flexible hours. Standard entrées are supplemented by vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free, no-sugar, and low-sodium options to align with individual diet orders. Guest meals allow family members to dine on campus, and staff observe intake for residents who need assistance or monitoring related to diabetes or other medical conditions. Snacks and beverages are accessible between meals.

Amenities are intended to support physical activity, social engagement, and cognitive stimulation. Residents have access to indoor and outdoor walking paths, a library and computer lounge, an activity center, and organized clubs and communities. Daily calendars feature live music, karaoke sessions, birthday parties, reminiscence programs, and scheduled social outings.

#1 in Sandstone, MN

Residents and their families say:

This community, Golden Horizons of Sandstone, has garnered a mix of feedback from families and visitors. Many commend the cleanliness of the facility, the friendliness and helpfulness of the staff, and the variety of activities offered, which include crafts, music, and games, especially now that COVID-19 restrictions are lifting. The food is generally praised as being above average, and special mentions were made about the effort staff put into bringing activities like music into the schedule, albeit some wish these activities were more frequent. The size and functionality of apartments, along with the community's overall atmosphere, which is often described as homey and welcoming, have earned particular appreciation. The staff's dedication to caring for residents as if they were family members was highlighted, contributing positively to the overall environment.

However, there are a few concerns. Repeatedly, reviews mentioned issues regarding communication from the staff to the families and a noted absence of regular cleaning in certain areas, such as resident bathrooms. Some reviews cited a lack of initiative from employees and mentioned having to stay on top of the community to ensure that needs were met, despite the high cost. Additionally, there were critiques about the limited scope of activities available, which, combined with the lack of consistent leadership in directing these activities, stood out as a drawback for some. The pricing of the facility, mentioned as being higher than expected, and specific accessibility concerns regarding bathroom showers were also points of contention for prospective residents or their families. Despite these criticisms, many would still recommend Golden Horizons of Sandstone, finding value in its services and environment, with special mentions of secure outdoor areas for residents and on-site beauty services enhancing the quality of life for those living there.
