Overview of Heritage House Elder Care

Heritage House Elder Care is a small care home located on Seventh Street Northwest in Faribault, Minnesota. The property is a single-level house with 10 total beds, offering a choice between private and shared bedrooms. The single-story footprint allows residents to move around easily without dealing with stairs. The home operates at a 70 percent occupancy rate, meaning the staff looks after seven residents at any given time.

Daily life here focuses on basic, non-medical care, lodging, and everyday supervision. The Minnesota Department of Health inspected the property and noted compliance issues involving staff paperwork, food safety practices, emergency readiness, fire protocols, and resident assessments, though a follow-up inspection confirmed the home had fixed these issues and achieved compliance.

The location carries a walkability score of 49 out of 100, meaning a few spots are nearby, but families still need a car or local transit to handle medical visits and shopping. Interested individuals can get in touch with the operator to check on the three open beds.
