Experience at Boulder Ponds
When my mom arrived, they were understaffed and they didn't know she was coming on the day she actually arrived. It was tough but, to would say the staff was nice. Some staff members had very thick accents and that was tough. They were all very nice. They had some musical activities that was especially wonderful! They had some fun family get togethers- those were really great. The hospice team was fabulous. The facilities health coordinator was not great but it was because the staff kept changing. The outside patio was fun. They brought in animals... a horse, ducks and dogs... that was fun! The food was good, they ate dinner early... 4:30. I had to ask for a care conference- hopefully they have more staff to accommodate their families. Once we had the care conference- I did feel better about her stay there.

memory care has no idea how to apply basic memory care needs
Management and staff are so out of touch with residents in Memory care... no activities and no approaches that of a memory care approach. So disappointed in this place no one really is there fir the right reasons. They say they will and charge you for it but it won't happen. Not a place for a loved one to live . Food is absolutely terrible and the upkeep and housekeeping is awful!!

My mom loves it there!
My mom fractured her hip while living down in Az. With us being in Mn, we knew we had to move her back to Mn in order to help her more moving forward. She was planning on moving back, just not this soon. I looked at several places, and Boulder Ponds “checked all our boxes”. My mom moved in sight unseen. We were so nervous, because she loved her place in Az and all her friends. That move was 2 months ago. She has been so impressed with everything so far. She loves her apartment, she is meeting a lot of great friends, enjoying the activities and she really enjoys the staff!

hoping for improvements
I would say there seems to be turn over in there staffing, recently it was maintenance and now the cleaning personnel. I would say the staff isn't super quick to help if there is a situation where they are called to a unit. The food was great in the beginning and has declined more recently. I feel they are always trying to improve in ways and the staff I have dealt with has been nice. It's a very nice place for the most part.

Our Experience So Far
My loved one is currently a resident at Boulder Ponds Senior Living and has been for only a couple of months. The best part of Boulder Ponds so far is the atmosphere- it is friendly and inviting, the staff have been kind. However, I am still waiting for a care conference and in the beginning, we had a few hiccups. They've been short staffed, but I think they are working on it. I'm hoping in the next few months, I'll have a better understanding of how things work and then I could make a recommendation.

Tips for evaluating your community options

Safety is a primary concern when seniors and their families look for Assisted Living. To ensure that a community meets your needs and expectations, we recommend that seniors and family members:

  • Tour the location: Touring allows you to speak to current residents and staff, and helps you confirm the accuracy of the community description and photos. Use our touring checklist to help guide your visit.

  • Confirm the availability of required services: Before you commit, make sure that the community offers all the services your senior needs, and that those services can be provided within your budget.

  • Know the Minnesota regulations for Assisted Living: Each state has its own laws and inspections processes to ensure seniors reside in a safe environment. Depending on your state, you may even be able to look up inspection reports for the community(ies) you’re considering. Learn more about Minnesota regulations for Assisted Living.

A Place for Mom has scored Boulder Ponds Senior Living 7.3 out of 10 using our proprietary review score.

 

We assign review scores to give a more reliable view into senior living communities and home care agencies. Our review scores prioritize reviews that are recent — the past 24 months — because we know families need current information when choosing senior care.

 

Those with many recent, positive reviews receive a high review score, while providers with few recent reviews — regardless of how positive — receive a lower review score. Communities with no recent reviews will not have a review score, even if older reviews are positive. The maximum A Place for Mom review score a community can receive is 10 points.
