Overview of Heritage Haven III

Heritage Haven III has spent 26 years in Duluth, Minnesota, and what it’s built its identity around is specific: dementia and memory care. The 33-bed community sits at 3044 Morris Thomas Rd, about 3.3 miles from downtown, in a stretch of the city where a car is essentially required. The Walk Score here is 4, about as car-dependent as it gets.

85% of its beds are filled, 28 out of 33, which speaks to the ongoing demand in a city this size. The community is approved for dementia care specifically, not just equipped to handle it as an afterthought, and that approval comes with a dedicated wellness program built around it. Personalized support and memory care therapies round out what’s actually offered to residents who need that level of attention.

Licensed nurses and CNAs staff the place, and home care is available as an additional service beyond the residential setup. For day-to-day life, there are art classes and fitness sessions, small things, but they’re the kind of structure that keeps residents engaged rather than just occupying space.

On the regulatory side, inspections at facilities like this one tend to center on medication management, fire safety systems, staffing credentials, and care planning documentation, the same handful of areas regulators watch across assisted living generally.

What Heritage Haven III offers, in the end, is a long-tenured, dementia-focused community in Duluth with real staffing behind it and near-full occupancy to show for it. That’s a narrow lane, but it’s one this facility has been running in for over two decades.

Overview of Sunrise View Assisted Living

Sunrise View Assisted Living occupies a single-story property at 603 Louisiana Avenue in Adrian, Minnesota, providing care for 43 residents. The location houses a moderate population size under a 65 percent occupancy rate, eliminating the need for stairs within the building layout.

The care team looks after 24-hour daily needs, providing meal service, personal routines, and medication oversight alongside laundry and housekeeping. State regulators from the Minnesota Department of Health checked the home’s records during their routine oversight cycle, verifying that the facility maintains substantial compliance with state licensing standards and cleared its previous corrective action requirements.

The neighborhood has a walkability score of 28 out of 100, meaning a car or transit service is necessary to manage most medical visits and community trips.

Prospective residents looking into regional care options can contact the administrative office to ask about available rooms and upcoming schedules.

Frequently Asked Questions about Assisted Living in Minnesota

What's the difference between assisted living and memory care in Minnesota?

Assisted living in Minnesota supports residents with daily activities (bathing, dressing, medication management) while preserving independence. Memory care is a specialized form of assisted living for residents living with Alzheimer's or dementia, and adds 24/7 secured environments, dementia-trained staff, and structured routines designed to reduce confusion and wandering.

What's the difference between assisted living and a nursing home in Minnesota?

Assisted living in Minnesota is a residential model focused on housing, hospitality, and help with daily activities. Nursing homes (skilled nursing facilities) provide 24/7 medical care from licensed nurses for residents with significant health needs, and are regulated more strictly under both state and federal CMS rules.

Does Minnesota Medicaid cover assisted living?

Minnesota Medicaid does not directly pay room-and-board for assisted living, but most states (including Minnesota) offer Home and Community-Based Services (HCBS) waivers that can offset the cost of care services delivered inside a licensed community. Eligibility, waitlists, and covered services vary — check directly with the state Medicaid agency.

What is assisted living?

Assisted living combines private or semi-private apartments with help on activities of daily living (meals, bathing, dressing, medication management) and a social calendar — for residents who need some support but do not need 24/7 medical care.

How many assisted living facilities are listed on this page?

This page features 527 assisted living facilities in Minnesota. Use the filters and comparison tools above to compare ratings, amenities, and pricing.

How do I choose the right assisted living facility in Minnesota?

Start by matching the level of care offered to the resident's current and anticipated needs, then compare licensing status, staff-to-resident ratios, recent inspection results, and pricing. Tour at least two or three communities in Minnesota, talk to current residents and families, and confirm what is included in the base rate versus billed as add-on services.

What should I look for when visiting assisted living facilities in Minnesota?

Pay attention to staff interactions with residents, cleanliness and odor, food quality at meal times, the activity calendar, and how questions about pricing and care plans are answered. Ask to see the most recent state inspection report, the move-out / level-of-care-change policy, and a sample monthly bill that lists every fee.
