Assisted Living and Memory Care Services: Augustana Emerald Crest in Minnesota provides a unique model in senior housing to help ensure personalized care, dignity, socialization and privacy. We have homes located in Burnsville, Minnetonka, Shakopee and Victoria (less than 30 minutes from Minneapolis) that are designed for those needing consistent support and safety but allow freedom of movement in and out of the home. We also have homes designed to include special security features for those residents who may be at risk for wandering where a secured environment is necessary.

Our custom-designed, single-level homes meet the unique needs of our residents. A peaceful, simple design with short hallways lessen confusion and keep our residents within easy reach of staff. This intimate homelike setting fosters a comfortable, safe and stress-free environment where your loved ones can enjoy the familiar routines of home.

We take time to get to know the individuals at Emerald Crest. We believe getting to know the individual is a must in order to provide them with the highest quality programs and services. Family members are encouraged to participate actively in their loved one’s care. Our professional care team of nurses and occupational therapists work with the resident and family to find the best options to meet care needs. Our assessment process and programs are designed to assure a truly individualized plan of care, implemented and supervised by registered nurses and registered occupational therapists.

Our structured daily program is designed for each resident according to his or her individual abilities. Our focus is on resident’s interests, unique routines, physical and cognitive abilities and for providing opportunities of success while promoting quality of life. (Learn more about the Klein Model of Care.) Residents can count on Emerald Crest to provide them with an interesting variety of services and amenities. Resident’s days are filled with things to do ranging from exercise and trivia to special rest and relaxation time. From nurse assessments to housekeeping and daily programs, our services are planned with people in mind. For a better idea of the level of care or service your loved one needs, click here.

 “Emerald Crest has been an invaluable facilitator in putting into place so many necessary quality of life measures for Mother – things which were only met with resentment, anger and obstinacy when our family members tried to institute them. This has allowed us to have a mother-daughter relationship of enjoying one another in the remaining years and has given those hard parts of caretaker to the professionals at Emerald Crest.“

          - Robert and Bonnie Oleson, Waconia, MN
