Meadow Lakes Senior Living

Assisted living gives residents extra help with routine daily activities, including taking medications, personal hygiene, getting dressed, moving around and getting into and out of bed.

Memory care offers close supervision along with programs such as color therapy, music therapy, cognitive games, sensory activities, health and fitness classes, and walks and talks.

Memory care residents have access to medical facilities in the Rochester area, including Mayo Clinic and Olmsted Medical Center.

All living spaces have grab bars and other safety supports, trained staff are onsite 24 hours a day, and entrances and exits are monitored.

Apartments are one-bedroom layouts, some with a den, with full-size kitchenettes, air conditioning, cable TV, a refrigerator, a microwave and a private bathroom.

Utilities, garbage removal and cable are included, Wi-Fi is available, and residents have room for their own furniture and belongings.

Tuck-under garages are available, and the building has limited access.

Meals are served in a restaurant-style dining hall where family members are welcome, and the community partners with US Foods for its ingredients.

In memory care, residents can choose the daily special or the current menu, and picture menus let them point to the meal they want.

Activities include board games and cards, dance classes, arts and crafts, pottery, a music program, bridge, movie nights and trips into town on the community bus.

The fitness center hosts balance and mobility exercise classes.

Amenities include a movie theater, a whirlpool tub, fitness programming, outdoor seating, and well-kept grounds overlooking the water.

Meadow Lakes is in Rochester, Minnesota, home to Mayo Clinic, with shops, restaurants, cultural attractions and outdoor recreation areas nearby, including May Park and the Rochester Art Center.
