Catholic Eldercare

I'm sorry my mother didn't live longer to enjoy living there. She had just been there a little over two months and she died. I thought the facility was wonderful very professionally run and clean. The staff truly cares about the residents.

The experience and tour was very nice for me. I got to see the community and saw they offer extra amenities to the residents. It is a good suitable community but not what we wanted.

The Mainstreet Lodge has been a great move so far, my father has only been there a couple of months now. He loves the bingo nights and the large variety of activities they offer there. The place is clean and very bright, it has a positive atmosphere. My father's apartment is a good size and has everything that he needs.

The staff seem to be helpful, responsive and listen to mom. She seems pleased with the food and they are accommodating with her dietary needs. I heard the food is homemade. The community is clean. I would recommend this community as it good choice for my mom. They are part of Catholic Eldercare so the church presence was one of the main reasons we chose this community.

My Aunt has been at Mainstreet Lodge for about 2 months now and since she has been there its been a very easy adjustment for her and she actually really likes the place. It truly has been a very positive experience from the staff to residents. The food is very good and there are plenty activities and outings for the residents to participate in. I'd recommend.

Because the immediate need to find an assisted living community for my sister was such a surprise, I didn't know how or where to start making this major lifestyle change for her. My advisor called me at the recommendation of the social worker where my sister was rehabbing and our conversation jolted me out of my shock and into action. He gave me a list of communities to consider visiting and advice that was extremely helpful in making decisions for her. I'm very impressed with MainStreet Lodge, from a facilities standpoint and a staffing standpoint. The community is very inviting and everyone we met were very understanding of our situation and very helpful. My sister felt very welcomed at MainStreet Lodge.

Doing pretty well at Mainstreet Lodge. The staff is very friendly and helpful. Our loved one seems to need an extra push with socializing and interacting so we also have her attending a day program a few days a week nearby on the same campus. There she gets a lot of socializing for people with cognitive deficits. They tailor games, current events that fit her skills. She really likes it there, the people are so nice. It's become a part of her routine she looks forward to now. She participates more in the day program than when she stays in the assisted living. She seems to need the extra reassurance to participate. The community is very warm and inviting. She loves her little studio. We've put a screen up in her apartment so it separates the room and it looks very homey and comfortable There are a lot of enclosed porches with windows that have a view of nice landscaping. It is a bright and open atmosphere. Although she is a picky eater she really enjoys the meals they prepare. She's has gained weight and looks healthy now. I would definitely recommend this community to others.

The employees here are very nice and friendly and they seem to genuinely care about the residents. They are very helpful and will answer any questions you may have. i would recommend this facility to anyone who needs help and they do it with respect.

Great!!!!Great!!!!Great!!!!Great!!!!Great!!!!Great!!!!

When we first came to see MainStreet Lodge we have a very positive experience and overall we thought it was a very good community for our loved one. Unfortunately, we needed to move our loved one out and into a different community because he ended up needing more medical care then what they were able to provide.

We really liked RiverVillage community. They gave a nice presentation regarding what they would provide for our loved one. The staff was very friendly. We ended up choosing another facility based on our care needs had changed.

It is a nice community that we chose because Mom had previously attended a day program. Mom has been here a little over a month and is still acclimating to her new surroundings. I wish there more activities on the weekends, it seems there is not enough staff on hand during the weekends. The staff is friendly and caring, although, they need to encourage my mom to participate more and remind her to put in her hearing aids, and at the same time let her feel independent. Some of the other residents are more high maintenance so the staff does not seem to notice the quieter residents such as my Mom. Mom likes the food, there seems to be a healthy variety of food to choose from. There definitely be more communication between the staff and family members. I feel good that she is in a safe and comfortable community.

My tour of the RiverVillage East went well, but they did not have an opening for a one bedroom apartment. They only had studios at the time. The place was nice, and the people were all very friendly, but we ended up going with another community.

Ownership has changed. No longer listed as senior housing only. Liked the floor plans, open and spacey, stainless steel appliances, washer&dryer Did not like location

nice enough but way over budget, no green space or activities, more than one color wood in the apartment, [removed] dark and blond, not good, not a bad location, just off of broadway in Mpls. Lots of light into the units.

They never initiated a call or responded to the voice mail that I left for a call-back.
