Overview of Prairie Bluffs Senior Living

In Eden Prairie, MN, Prairie Bluffs Senior Living is licensed for assisted living, independent living, hospice care, memory care, and respite care.

Assisted living provides help that includes bathing, dressing, and medication. Independent living brings with it the services the community provides to somebody who doesn’t need daily care at all. Dementia care approval shows on the license status, which is what the secured, supervised memory care level runs under.

Hospice care turns on comfort and support for a resident whose illness is terminal. Respite is the brief stay set up around a caregiver’s unavailability. Moving among the levels here happens without a change of community, which is what five on one license gets a resident.

One hundred beds is a middling size, and pets come with a resident who wants to bring one along when they move in. A Salon is a named amenity, and a Fitness Center is included with it. Rehabilitation Services is the therapy entry, and Active Therapy is the other of the two specific programs here.
