No one plans for the day that changes everything. For Colleen, one ordinary morning turned into a life-changing accident. She thought the next chapter meant giving up her independence. She found something she never expected: laughter, new friendships, and a team that has her back every step of the way.

Sometimes the biggest comeback isn't just physical; it's finding your confidence!

Colleen’s journey after a life-changing fall led her family to Edgewood Fargo, where coordinated care helped her rebuild independence.

Dementia has changed a lot of things, but as Cathy says, "He's still Dad."

The shift from daughter to caregiver didn't happen overnight. It came through a series of small, quiet adjustments, constant worry about safety, and the difficult realization that love alone isn't always enough to keep someone safe at home.

Today, Stanley is a beloved resident of Edgewood East Grand Forks Memory Care, where Cathy has found something, every caregiver deserves: peace of mind. Asking for help isn't giving up. It's making the journey sustainable for you and for the person you love.

Follow a daughter's dementia caregiving journey and discover early support, memory care, and partnerships help families navigate Alzheimer's.

As residents’ lives and health journeys change, their care should evolve with them.

Our teams understand that a resident’s needs, goals, and medications may change over time. That’s why we take a thoughtful, resident-centered approach to medication reduction and deprescribing. Through regular medication reviews and collaboration with residents, families, and healthcare providers, we help ensure each treatment continues to support what matters most a resident’s comfort, well-being, and quality of life.

Deprescribing isn’t about simply reducing medications; it’s about making thoughtful decisions that support each resident’s unique journey.

Some masterpieces are right at your fingertips!

At Edgewood Sioux Falls, one art project became a first-place winner at the South Dakota Association of Healthcare Organizations Art Contest. Activities are never just something to fill the calendar. Around one table, with ink pads, laughter between neighbors, and caregivers joining in, an afternoon of art became a lasting reminder of connection!

At Edgewood Sioux Falls Memory Care, residents art project earned first place at SDAHO, highlighting creativity, and meaningful engagement.

Residents at Eagle Island had a wonderful time celebrating all the fathers at our Hawaiian-themed event. A huge thank you to the Boise Ukulele Group for helping us celebrate Father’s Day! Your music brought so much joy, laughter, and heart to the day—it truly made the celebration unforgettable!

A dad’s advice has a way of following you through life. It stays with you in ways you don’t always notice in the moment.

This Father’s Day, we asked dads in our communities to share their best dad advice. Their words are a reminder that the time spent together and the experiences we share stay with us long after they’re said.

Willie doesn’t come to Rock Steady Boxing because he’s training for a heavyweight title. He comes because he’s giving Parkinson’s a run for its money.

For Willie, every class is a commitment to keep moving. What started as an exercise program has become something much bigger: a community, a source of confidence, and a place where determination shows up again and again. The punches matter. The drills matter. But the real victory is showing up and refusing to let Parkinson’s define the next chapter.

Parkinson’s may have changed the fight, but for Willie, it doesn’t get the final round!

Rock Steady Boxing for Parkinson’s is more than exercise it’s movement, connection, and community. Building strength, confidence, and support one round at a time.

Teachers make up many of our residents. What makes it special is how they bring the same patience and understanding they once used in the classroom into everyday life here. So, while they may not have a lesson plan anymore… they’re still shaping the room, building connections, and making people feel seen.

Because they didn’t stop teaching. They just changed classrooms.
