That’s why we implement specialized memory care services into everything we do. From our case management, to our household activities and residential cottages — everything is designed to stimulate the minds and make life easier for those suffering from Alzheimer’s and related dementias.

Our respite care program is specifically designed to allow our Cottage Heroes to take over when family members are away, so a loved one’s needs can be met. A respite stay is also frequently suggested for seniors recovering from a recent hospital visit or health complication. No matter the reason for the stay, our respite care program helps your loved one maintain their dignity in a simple and intimate home-like atmosphere.
What makes PSC of Albert Lea special? Like in your own home, family members are always welcome to join their loved one for meal time. Our clean and inviting Cottage with its small, home-like atmosphere is comfortable for our residents, visitors and our caregivers. Being smaller also means that our caregivers can spend more time with the residents to include sitting down to meals and eating with them – just like family.
We welcome the opportunity to provide a home for your loved one at our Cottage and will do our best to honor them and their unique needs from their first day through the end of life.
