The Five Advantages of Our Knute Nelson Senior Living Communities

As we age, staying at home can pose unique challenges.

For example, the stairs may become more difficult to ascend, and trips to the hospital or clinic require more planning and energy than ever before. All the while, household chores and maintenance pose undue risks.

That’s why at Knute Nelson, our senior living communities offer the quality of life you deserve and the care you need, all without compromising the feeling of home. Here’s why residents and their loved ones feel at peace after choosing Knute Nelson.

1. Social Involvement

As you grab coffee with new friends, enjoy an afternoon game of cards, or go on a group adventure, you’re sure to find a fuller sense of social belonging at Knute Nelson.

Each day brings new opportunities to stay active, meet fellow residents, and try something you’ve never tried before.

Just ask one of our senior living residents, Judy Karl-Duclos, who says: “They have a lot of stuff going on here, there are different activities going on all the time.”

2. Life without Maintenance

The days of raking, shoveling, and mowing are over when you transition to Knute Nelson. That’s because our experienced ground keepers and staff take care of the leg work for you.

It’s all part of our holistic approach to senior living. In turn, we alleviate some of the most significant hurdles associated with independent living.

Judy has experienced the difference firsthand. Here’s what she says: "All I go do now is clean my apartment and keep my deck looking nice, then sit out on my deck."

3. Living with Your Spouse

When you have a loved one with a health condition, their care becomes a top priority. In turn, their spouse, children, and loved ones need to make changes to accommodate their needs.

By making the transition to Knute Nelson, spouses can continue living together while their loved ones enjoy the peace of mind that comes with the quality care they deserve.

If new conditions develop during your time at Knute Nelson, our seasoned team has the resources and expertise to keep up with your needs.

Between our accessible premises, experienced staff, and in-unit support, we ensure that each resident continues living their best life as comfortably as possible.

After surgery, Judy had immediate ongoing access to the care she needed. “When I got out of the hospital and came back to my room, the nurses came here and helped me."

5. Compassionate Staff

Aside from our state-of-the-art facilities, the people behind Knute Nelson are what makes the experience truly special. They get to know each resident, plan quality activities that get everyone involved, and create a carefree environment with relaxation in mind.

Simply put, here’s what Judy has to say about the staff: “They're there to help you and they're friendly.”
