Grand Forks – Edgewood offers two primary levels of care: assisted living and memory care designed for residents with moderate dementia. Licensed caregiving staff develop care plans that address personal health histories, medication regimens, and cognitive support needs. Daily monitoring of vital signs, coordination with outside physicians, and on-site medication administration are core components, giving residents access to routine medical oversight without leaving the community.
Around-the-clock staffing includes an awake night shift that performs regular safety rounds and responds to call systems. Team members provide some physical assistance with bathing, dressing, eating, and toileting, ensuring that residents retain as much independence as possible while receiving hands-on support when needed. Scheduled wellness checks, fall-prevention reviews, and coordination with rehabilitation therapists help maintain stable health outcomes and reduce avoidable hospital visits.
Accommodation options range from studio layouts to larger one-bedroom apartments, each equipped with emergency response pull cords, basic kitchenettes, and barrier-free bathrooms to support mobility. Select units add features such as walk-in showers, private patios, or additional storage space, but these enhancements are not available in every apartment. Housekeeping, linen service, and maintenance are included for all residents.
The community’s dining program provides three daily meals plus snacks prepared under the guidance of a registered dietitian. Menus incorporate standard fare, diabetic-friendly choices, and texture-modified options for residents with swallowing challenges. Table service is the norm, though room-service meals can be arranged during short-term illness or recovery.
On-site amenities and services include a barber/beauty shop for routine hair care, a dedicated movie room for scheduled film showings, a wellness center that supports group exercise and therapy sessions, and campus-wide internet access for personal devices and video calls with family.
