Treated my mother well.

My mom was one of the longest living patients here. She recently passed away after 8 long years. She was well loved by the staff and well treated. The staff was always friendly and caring as far as I could attest to. It's a difficult job with many degrees of memory loss among the individuals. Thanks for taking such good care of my mother.

Emerald Crest Mtka

My mother has been at Emerald Crest Mtka for over two years, and we are very happy with it. We love the layout! There are 12 bedrooms circling a large living room and dining room. I like that they have bedrooms, not apartments, which encourages residents to leave their bedroom and come out to where all the action is. And there are activities available seven days a week. Emerald Crest has three houses, each with different levels of dementia, which works really well. I wanted mom to be with other Seniors who have similar mental and physical capabilities as she does, so that she could make friends. It has worked out really well, and she has made friends. I remember walking her to a table for lunch one of the first days she was there. Her whole face lit up when she saw who she would be sitting with. She didn’t know their names, but she knew that she liked them. Mom has gotten excellent nursing/health care at Emerald Crest. When mom moved in, she had infected diabetic ulcers on her feet and legs that we thought would kill her. She has gotten such good care at Emerald Crest that when these diabetic ulcers do occur, they are quickly treated before they can get worse. I feel that they are no longer a threat to her life. The staff at Emerald Crest has always quickly responded to our questions and concerns. Because I am confident about the quality of care my mother is getting, I don’t worry about what is happening when I’m not there. I’m able to go on vacation, and even travel out of the country, knowing that my mother is being well cared for. I highly recommend the Minnetonka Emerald Crest.

The staff is unprofessional. They show no caring for my family after my husband died. He had been a resident for 16 months and passed away there. Not a single person had the common courtesy to call and express their concern. All I heard was to come and clear out his room so they could paint and clean it for the next person. No activities when I visited and rude aids., except for a few good ones. [Name removed] was not a good representative. I would never ever recommend to anyone to put their loved ones at Emerald Crest Minnetonka. Very upset with the staff. I advocated for my husband because he couldn't do it for himself.

Emerald Crest Exceeded Expectations

The home-like environment is definitely what my mom needs. She feels comfortable and safe at Emerald Crest. All staff members have done an awesome job of caring for my mom and improving the quality of life that dementia can steal away from patients. The programming is far superior to that of any other facilities we checked into. Emerald Crest not only cares for their residents; they provide valuable support for the families as well.

This was not one of my favorites, as it was small - 12 residents in each house and the people seemed more advanced, plus it would be about $10,000.

Tips for evaluating your community options

Safety is a primary concern when seniors and their families look for Memory Care. To ensure that a community meets your needs and expectations, we recommend that seniors and family members:

  • Know Minnesota’s regulations for memory care. Each state has its own laws and inspection processes to ensure seniors reside in a safe environment. Depending on your state, you may even be able to look up inspection reports for the communities you’re considering. Learn more about Minnesota’s regulations for memory care and download the Guide to Senior Living Licensure and Inspection Reports.

  • Tour the location. Touring allows you to speak to current residents and staff, and it helps you confirm the accuracy of the community description and photos. Use our touring checklist to help guide your visit.

  • Confirm the availability of required services. Before committing, make sure that the community offers all the services your loved one needs, and that those services can be provided within your budget.
