Overview of Eventide Jamestown Assisted Living

Eventide Jamestown Assisted Living is at 114 12th Avenue NE in Jamestown, North Dakota. Eventide Jamestown LLC operates it, and state licensing records classify it as an assisted living facility. Jackson Johnsrud is listed as the community contact.

What stands out first is the breadth of care under one address. Assisted living, independent living, memory care, hospice, and respite care all live here. For a family weighing where a parent might be in three years, not just next month, that breadth is the practical detail. Needs change and a move across town during a health decline is hard on everyone, and this setup can reduce the odds of one.

Two more services round things out: transitional care and skilled nursing. Transitional care fills the gap after a hospital discharge, when someone is not ready to go home but no longer needs a hospital bed. Skilled nursing on site means clinical care doesn’t automatically require a transfer.

Named programs run to Independent Living Apartments, Assisted Living Apartments, and Ethos Home Care and Hospice. Apartment-style units. Residents get their own space rather than a room on a ward.

The community holds 43 beds. That is a middle size, big enough to sustain group activities and shared spaces, small enough that staff learn names. Neither extreme.

The surrounding area scores 63 on Walk Score, rated moderately walkable, with some errands doable on foot and a mix of amenities close by. Practically speaking, a visiting daughter can park once and walk to a coffee shop. Jamestown is not a dense city, so a score in that range reflects a location with real proximity to daily needs.

The picture here is a community built around continuity of care, sized so that residents stay known to the people caring for them.

Overview of Edgewood Bismarck on Dominion

Edgewood Bismarck on Dominion is an assisted living and memory care community in Bismarck, North Dakota, and at 38 beds, it’s on the smaller side. That tends to translate into a more personal feel than you’d get walking into a two-hundred-bed campus. Tristan Dallman handles leadership contact for the community.

Care here includes respite care, along with licensed nurses and CNAs providing coverage around the clock. Short-term stays and adult day services round things out, useful for families dealing with a caregiver’s temporary absence or a loved one who needs structured daytime support but still lives at home otherwise.

One thing worth knowing: residents can access therapy services, home health, and hospice care right on-site, through Edgewood’s own CaringEdge division. It means a resident’s care can shift as their needs change without a family having to coordinate a separate provider or move someone to an entirely different setting.

The amenities lean into a small-town feel deliberately. A movie theater, a coffee shop, a chapel, a fitness center, the kind of setup meant to feel less like an institution and more like an actual neighborhood. Getting around outside the community is a mixed bag though. The Walk Score sits at 57, moderately walkable, so a handful of errands are doable on foot, but most trips will still mean getting in a car.

Between the compact size, the round-the-clock staffing, and healthcare services that can flex from therapy through hospice without switching providers, Edgewood Bismarck on Dominion reads as a community built for continuity, one that can hold onto a resident through a lot of different stages of care.

Overview of Missouri Slope Assisted Living

Missouri Slope Assisted Living operates out of 2500 Valley View Avenue in Bismarck. Under one roof it handles nursing home care, assisted living, skilled nursing, and home care. For a family, that structure has a practical upside. When a parent’s needs shift, the provider does not have to.

The surrounding blocks are genuinely walkable, with a Walk Score of 85. Most errands work on foot; essentials sit close by, which helps visiting family as much as residents themselves.

There’re sixty-four beds with just thirty-two residents in them. The average stay lasts about 108 days, and that number tells you something specific: this is a place doing a lot of recovery work, not only long-term residency. If you are looking at a rehab stay after surgery or a hospital discharge, that pattern is the one to pay attention to.

Rehabilitation services happen on-site, so therapy does not mean a car ride and an appointment window. The organization also runs Missouri Slope at Home – HCBS, which supports people who want to stay in their own houses rather than move.

Total nursing care comes to 6 hours and 25 minutes per resident per day. Weekend nursing holds at 4 hours and 49 minutes. Coverage commonly drops off once Friday ends, so weekend hours that stay this substantial say something real about how the place is run.

Life inside includes religious services and a volunteer program. There is also an active resident council, where residents gather to talk through policies, care quality, and what goes on the activity calendar.

Medicare, Medicaid, and private pay are all accepted, which covers nearly every funding route a family is likely to be working with. Put it together and Missouri Slope suits older adults in Bismarck who need short-term rehabilitation or steady nursing care, delivered by staff who are actually there, in a part of town where a walk is still worth taking.

Overview of The Baptist Apartments – Prairie Pointe

The Baptist Apartments – Prairie Pointe is on Nebraska Drive in Bismarck, North Dakota. It covers nursing home care, assisted living, hospice care, and skilled nursing under one roof. State licensing records it as an assisted living facility. The practical upshot: a resident whose needs change over time may not have to pack up and move somewhere new.

Thirty-two beds makes this a small community. Small buildings usually run quieter, with staff knowing well who is who, and where the daily rhythm is less institutional than what you find in a large facility.

Walkability here is strong as the Walk Score is 85, which means most errands can be done on foot and essentials are close by. Residents who still get around independently benefit from that. So do visiting families, who can pair a visit with a nearby stop instead of making two separate trips.

Rehabilitation services and short-term rehab are both available, so someone coming off a hospital stay or a fall can recover in place rather than routing through a separate rehab center first. Respite care is on the list too. That gives a family caregiver a defined stretch of relief, planned or otherwise. For residents who need help with daily routines but nothing clinically intensive, basic care fills that space. Someone is on staff around the clock.

The community also describes spiritual care and long-term care among its offerings. The spiritual piece connects to the Baptist name and can matter a great deal to families who want faith woven into daily life rather than treated as a scheduled activity.

Medicaid is accepted. For many families, that single fact determines whether a community stays on the list at all. Taken with the small size, the walkable location, and the span of care from basic support through hospice, this is a community built for people who would rather settle in one place than move again.

Overview of Eventide Fargo Senior Living Apartments

Managed by executive director Chris Gilson, Eventide Fargo is a 98-bed nursing home in Fargo, North Dakota. The facility in Brandt Crossing’s neighborhood is owned by Christopher Gilson. It’s part of a non-profit, church-related organization and accepts Medicare, Medicaid, and private pay occupants, making it accessible to families with different coverage options. The community offers a full continuum of services: nursing home care, skilled nursing, assisted living, independent living, hospice care, memory care, and respite care. This range lets residents find the support level that matches their needs, whether recuperating from surgery or illness, managing chronic conditions, or needing longer-term residential care. Most new occupants are Medicare-covered and stay for shorter periods related to post-acute recovery, though the home also serves private-pay and Medicaid residents for longer stays.

Daily care is anchored by a robust staffing model. Nursing staff supplies an average of 4 hours 57 minutes of care per resident day, including registered nurses, licensed practical nurses, and certified nursing assistants. The facility employs specialized therapists for physical therapy, occupational therapy, and speech-language pathology, plus social workers and mental health professionals addressing the full spectrum of resident needs. On-site dental services lessen the need for outside appointments. To ensure quality meal preparation and therapeutic programming, the community also maintains dietary staff and occupational therapy support. Occupants reside in bright and spacious units with emergency call systems for immediate assistance. Daily housekeeping, meal preparation, and maintenance services free residents from routine responsibilities. Scheduled transportation is offered for occupants and families needing to visit appointments or explore the home. The facility prioritizes enrichment via comprehensive wellness programming made to support intellectual, social, physical, emotional, occupational, and spiritual well-being. It’s encouraged that residents join activities, recreation, and an active resident council where they can voice concerns and help shape community life. About 5 miles from Fargo’s city center, the facility is in a car-dependent area where most errands require a vehicle, though the surrounding neighborhood offers access to hospitals, shopping, dining, and other services. The 98-bed mid-rise community upholds a high occupancy rate. This reflects stable demand and financial stability in the region.
