Diamond Willow Assisted Living - Alexandria is a wonderful assisted living community in Alexandria, Minnesota. It is within classy Douglas County which is part of the North Star State.
Diamond Willow was created as a bridge between traditional assisted living and a traditional nursing home. Since that time we have modified our model to allow our elderly clients to live somewhere that can be considered home through the end of life. We offer small intimate community settings of 8-16 residents per home and site based RN’s who work with the onsite leadership team and the direct care staff to assure that your loved one’s needs are being met.
Here at Diamond Willow we take pride in our person centered care model which is uniquely different from most diagnosis based care systems.
With that comes the belief that bigger is not always better. Each setting is designed to be intimate with fewer residents per suite, allowing us to have smaller communities to promote our person centered care model in a truly calm and comforting home-like environment. This affords us the ability to provide one on one attention in a more positive, healthy atmosphere to each and every individual. It is because of this model that we offer the industry leading staffing ratios of 1:5 during awake hours and 1:13 overnight.
We also recognize that moving multiple times later in life is everything short of desirable. As care needs increase and evolve our person oriented program is designed to provide varying levels of care in a personal suite from arrival through end of life, highly reducing the need to change facilities in the future.
