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.

Frequently Asked Questions about Memory Care 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.

Does Minnesota Medicaid cover memory care?

Minnesota Medicaid does not directly pay room-and-board for memory care, 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 memory care?

Memory care is a specialized form of assisted living for residents living with Alzheimer's disease or other forms of dementia, with secured environments, dementia-trained staff, and routines built to reduce confusion and wandering.

How many memory care communities are listed on this page?

This page features 348 memory care communities in Minnesota. Use the filters and comparison tools above to compare ratings, amenities, and pricing.

How do I choose the right memory care community 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 memory care communities 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.
