Do not choose this home my dad is here its terrible the staff is terrible very negelectful its dirty food is gross clothes are always missing patients fall down and get seriously hurt they just dont care this home should be closed

My mom was here for transitional care after surgery. It’s an older building but it’s clean and does not smell. The staff are very good, especially Angie, Kathleen and Mary. I was worried after reading some negative reviews, but it has turned out to be a good place for my mom to get the care she needed. I would have no issues with her going back here.

This is an absolute horrible place, the staff is absolutely horrible. They do not care about any of the resident's that live there. They will all reassure you that they are there to take care of your family members, but when we visited they were dirty, the room was filthy and my family members food was sitting there and they had not been helped to eat. We complained to management and nothing was done. They are all there to collect their paycheck and to go home.

Old, depressing facility needs major updates! Worse is the care! My mother went there for stroke weakness. Told me first day soneone mean to her....sounded scared. Next day her granddaughter checked on her.....crying, sitting on toilet ....no oxygen! She was oxygen dependent. Grandchild called nurse (who told her nursing aide left her without oxygen over 15 minutes!) demanded ambulance. Died later U of M. Started MN nursing home complaint....another confusing process. Medicaid (altho she wasn't on) acceptance no excuse for sub level care/environment! Only place had opening. Also, call and emergency lites NEVER work.....hmmmmm.

Recently I was a short stay resident around Thanksgiving, and I am writing this with a spirit of genuine thanks to the exceptional staff at Golden Living Lake Ridge. The facility is just wonderful. Things are organized. Care is precise. Results outstanding. Staff is highly trained, friendly and welcoming. Specifically, therapy (physical) was "just right" -- the exercises helped me greatly. In the dining room, overall the food is good -- you have your choice of two entrees each meal every day. Variety was plentiful. My bed was comfortable, and I felt safe there. The facility was extremely clean, and smelled that way. I highly recommend Golden Living Lake Ridge! Thank you all!!!

My wife has been in the facility for one day and has been treated poorly. I am sure everyone is busy but I was speaking to my wife on the telephone when one nurse walked into the room and while my wife was asking the nurse for help she walked out of the room without answering her needs. She also noted the at time it takes the staff 10 to 20 minutes to respond to her needs. She said some of the staff has treated her nicely but overall it has been a poor experience.

My mother was a patient here for a few weeks before she passed away. The compassionate care by the staff was exemplary. We have wonderful memories during that very difficult time. My daughter stayed over one night towards the end and I was there the night before she passed. We are still talking about the caring nurses during those nights. She was agitated and they knew just what to say to my mom to calm her. It was so wonderful to hear that. And by the way, the nurses thought we were sleeping! I can't forget to mention the day nurses who also knew just what to say to her to comfort her. Two unforgettable aides....it was a very difficult day and this male aide came into the family room and hugged all of us. Now how awesome was that! Then there was this one aide who towards the end was feeling so emotional as my mom was nearing the end that she had tears in her eyes. Now that meant a lot knowing she was sharing our pain. Thank you to all your wonderful staff Lake Ridge. You're the best!

I think that this Nursing Home seems to be alright. My feeling is that they try to do their best with what they have to work with. My Aunt says that she is happy, but then she doesn't need as much attention as some of the other residents. Sometimes she tells me things about the people that she rooms with, and how the staff treat them. My Aunt says that the staff treat her pretty good, and try to maintain some comforts of home, like how they have a garden out back. Some of the residents enjoy gardening, and go out when the weather is warm. There is also a gazebo for those who just want to get outside, and watch the birds. They have transportation to go wherever they need to, like shopping or to the casino. All in all, I am proud to have my family at Golden Living, and would definitely recommend it to others. My Aunt is very content, and enjoys living there, so I am happy . The one drawback is that visiting hours could be more flexible. Sometimes it is hard to go out there because I work at those same times. But I leave my job a little early, just to see her.

One of my parents was in Golden Living for a short time and we moved them as soon as possible because of the unprofessional and uncaring staff. Nursing staff was more interested in the lastest gossip than attending to the patients. My parent absolutely hated it from day one and never felt welcome there. I do not recommend this nursing home.
