Opened in 1993, Carefree Cottages of Maplewood provides assisted living, independent living, rehabilitation services, and respite care in Maplewood, MN. Dedicated to adults 62+, the community provides continuous support with nursing services. With 135 beds, cottages, and apartments with full kitchens are offered, so residents can prepare food in their own units.
24-hour staffing is also available, so residents can access care at all times. Moreover, respite care supports short stays, which can give a family caregiver time to travel or recover.
