    Sparkling clean compassionate dementia care

    I placed my loved one at Grace Homes and feel relieved - the facility is sparkling clean, sunny and homey with spacious, main-level private rooms, wheelchair-friendly layout, organic home-cooked meals, and personalized, dementia-appropriate care from consistent, compassionate staff (Bethany is wonderful). I did notice occasional short-staffing and limited on-site nursing, but the attentive team, dignity in end-of-life care, and true peace of mind for our family make me highly recommend Grace Homes.

    Summary review

    Overall sentiment across the reviews is strongly positive, with multiple reviewers emphasizing that Grace Homes provides a warm, home-like setting that gives families peace of mind. Commonly repeated strengths are the facility’s cleanliness and bright, sunny interiors, a pleasant (odor-free) atmosphere, and spacious private rooms that allow residents to bring belongings from home. Many reviewers explicitly describe feeling that residents are treated like family and recommend Grace Homes highly.

    Care quality emerges as a clear strength in the reviews. Families repeatedly note consistent caregivers, 24-hour personalized attention, and staff who are attentive and compassionate. Reviewers describe dementia-appropriate placements and end-of-life care delivered with dignity. Specific clinical positives mentioned include good pain control and attention to comfort (for example, elevating feet to reduce swelling). There are also practical supports noted, such as hospital pick-up/transport assistance and a general focus on mobility and safety, indicating an emphasis on both day-to-day comfort and clinical needs where appropriate.

    Staff and management receive strong praise for compassion and for going above and beyond routine duties. Several reviews call out an attentive owner (named Bethany in reviews) and describe open communication between families and staff. At the same time, a pattern of concern appears in a minority of comments: some reviewers described the facility as short-staffed at times and remarked that nursing staff were not always present. A few reviewers characterized the owner as "in-personable" (unapproachable). These points indicate variability in the experience of management accessibility and clinical staffing that prospective families should verify during a tour or discussion.

    The physical environment and daily life at Grace Homes are consistently described positively. The single-level, wheelchair-friendly layout, larger main-level bedrooms, and easy circulation make the facility accessible and safe. Reviewers appreciate the organic, home-cooked meals and describe a homey dining atmosphere — even residents helping staff bake — which reinforces the familial culture. The facility is repeatedly described as clean, bright, and odor-free, which contributes to the overall impression of quality.

    Notable patterns and recommendations: the dominant theme is high satisfaction with personalized, compassionate care in a clean, home-like setting that supports mobility and dignity — especially for dementia care and end-of-life needs. The primary concerns to note are staffing variability reported by some families (short staffing and limited on-site nursing at times) and mixed impressions about owner approachability. For prospective residents and families, it would be prudent to ask specific questions about current staff-to-resident ratios, on-site nursing coverage, and to meet both caregivers and management during a tour to gauge fit. Overall, the reviews portray Grace Homes as a highly recommended, family-oriented home with strong daily care and homelike amenities, tempered by a small but important set of staffing and management accessibility considerations to clarify before placement.

    About Grace Homes

    Grace Homes sits at 601 Oak Ridge Road in Hopkins, MN, in a large rambler house surrounded by old trees and gardens, and the atmosphere feels peaceful and familiar, with shaded porches, a big front yard with a view of a pond, and plenty of places to sit inside and out, whether it's the open glass-walled living room, the big activity room, or the bright dining area with a wide picture window. Grace Homes Oak Ridge House serves seniors who need help with daily activities or have memory challenges, complex or chronic health conditions, or who need end-of-life care, and it offers transitional and rehab services with assessments from physical and occupational therapists to keep people moving and feeling their best. There are eight private rooms, some with kitchenettes and built-in storage, and each gets decorated to help people feel at home and settle in, whether someone wants a woodsy, cabin-feel or a bright, airy look, and the whole house is one level, so it's easy for anyone using a wheelchair or needing help to get around.

    The community keeps a 1:3 caregiver to resident ratio, so there's always someone ready to offer personal help with things like medication, bathing, dressing, and eating, and there's 24/7 nursing care for people with memory loss. Nurses and caregivers help with transfers, coordinate with outside health providers, and provide support for people receiving home care, home health, or hospice-there's even temporary respite care if family caregivers need a break. Meals are cooked and served in the open dining room, and the staff handles special diets, keeps living spaces clean, and takes care of laundry. There's easy access to transportation for medical appointments, and residents join in community and resident-run activities every day, from arts and crafts, reading, and gardening to sing-alongs, musical performances, and karaoke. The home has a spa room, an aviary, and pets like a dog, a cat, and visiting animals that bring companionship, while the deck and porch let people enjoy fresh air and outdoor meals in warm weather.

    Seniors living at Grace Homes are encouraged to help with daily tasks if they want, such as chores, making beds, or clearing dishes, which helps people stay active and feel more connected. The philosophy centers on personalized care, individuality, and social connections, with plenty of gathering areas and support for staying as independent as possible, whether that means participating in programs, trying exercise classes, or simply enjoying quiet time in the garden. Grace Homes is fully licensed as a senior care facility and also as a home care provider under license #26529, following state rules for safety and staff ratios, and the community holds a strong 4.8 rating from family reviews for its focus on comfort, safety, and kindness.
