Carriage Oaks is Fantastic for Mom

We love Carriage Oaks for my mom. The people are so friendly and there are so many groups and activities available that she is busy every day if she wants to be. The unit was fully remodeled with new appliances, granite counters, cabinets and flooring. Looks fantastic! We are so glad we made this choice after visiting three other possible places. The others simply did not compare! They moved from a buy-in model to a lease model and that was what allowed us to make the decision. If fact, when we did the numbers, she is spending $100 less here than in her old home because utilities and basic cable, internet are all included and renter's insurance is much less than home owners. Great bargain in the end! Recommend Carriage Oaks to anyone looking for a vibrant and engaging living situation!

Best facility in Minnesota.

My grandmother is currently residing in the new memory care unit. She definitely needs to be in a secure unit, but her dementia isn't as advanced as most of the other residents in all the other memory care units we looked at. But at The Rivers, they noticed this and so they created a second momory care unit for people that are still in the early stages of alzheimers but need the security of a locked unit. It is so nice for Nana to have others in the same boat as her and its esp nice my Nana has others to talk to, or do activities with, or even just not feel like she's being punished and locked in a unit with people that are constantly reminding her of what she has to look forward to with this awful disease. I think she has a much more positive attitude and has had less behaviors. SHe's sleeping and eating better and I think she's happier than I have seen her in years. And we owe it all to The Rivers! They actually care a lot about their tenants and are constantly trying to make a difference in their lives. You can tell that they are not just in it for the money but they have a passion for what they do. I would definitely recommend ANYONE looking for senior living or memory care to go check out this amazing facility and if they don't offer something you really wanted, you can ask and they will probably work on getting it for you. They have been so helpful to Nana and all our family. They really are a Godsend.

Staff was nice and food was good

While my Father was here, I thought the facility was very clean and had a bright atmosphere. All of the staff members I met were nice and very engaging. They did offer a lot of activities like exercise groups, card clubs, and they even had a chapel. I haven’t eaten the food but it seemed to look very good. I would recommend this community to other families.

A kind and loving staff!

My mother, regrettably, had to leave Tradition because of her need for "two person" transfers. As hard as the nursing staff tried to keep Mom at Tradition, they were just unable to assist Mom, due to her decreasing mobility, with dressing, bathing and toileting with only one person. Unfortunately for Mom, Tradition doesn't have a number 4 level of care. I can tell you this about Tradition: The staff genuinely care about their clients. I felt very strongly that the staff felt sincere love for my mom based upon what I personally observed. They kept her "dry". It was as though they were on a mission to do this. I could tell by the number of "Depends she was going through and by the lack of any kind of odor in her apartment. The staff kept me completely informed of Mom's health issues as well as her need for supplies. More than once I was awoken at night by a phone call from a concerned care giver. Toward the end of Mom's stay, the staff performed above and beyond the level of care we were paying for. They had me fooled if they weren't actually sincere in their love and care for Mom. She is in a different facility now - one that provides "two person transfers". They will have a tough standard to live up to. So far, so good. [Removed]
