Overview of Edgewood Vista – Hermantown

Edgewood Vista – Hermantown is a senior living community set on a hillside in the Duluth suburbs of northern Minnesota, about 2.5 miles from the center of Hermantown. The campus brings together independent living, assisted living, and memory care in one place, which gives families a path to stay put as needs change rather than moving again later. It has been operating for 26 years, a long enough run that the community has settled into the area and built a track record with local families.

Residents live in private rooms in a single-story building, a layout worth noting for anyone concerned about stairs or elevators. The community welcomes residents aged 55 and older, and pets are allowed, which matters a great deal to people who do not want to give up a companion animal when they move. Transportation services and fitness and recreation programming round out daily life on the campus.

Care support runs deeper than the housing itself. Through CaringEdge, the community’s healthcare services division, residents have access to on-site therapy services, home health, and hospice care. Having those services delivered on campus can spare residents the strain of traveling to appointments during recovery or at the end of life, and it keeps care coordinated under one roof.

The surrounding area is car dependent, with a walkability score of 18 out of 100, so most errands and outings will involve a drive. That said, the profile describes a location close to restaurants, shopping, and medical services, so the practical distances are short even when a car is needed. Visiting family should plan on driving, which is typical for suburban campuses of this kind in the Duluth area.

For admissions questions, Susan Muehlberger is the named contact for the community.
