How does In-home Senior Care in Rosemount, MN work?

Home is where the heart is. While that saying can sound a tad cliche, it's especially true for many seniors living in America. When given a choice, older adults most often prefer to grow older at home. An AARP study found that three out of four adults over the age of 50 want to stay in their homes and communities as they age. When you begin to think about why, it makes sense. Home offers a sense of security, comfort, and familiarity.

The truth is, as we age, we begin to rely on others for help. When a family is too busy or lives too far away to fulfill this role, in-home senior care is often the best solution. Home care services allow seniors to enjoy personal independence while also receiving trustworthy assistance from a trained caregiver.

At Always Best Care, we offer a comprehensive range of home care services to help seniors stay healthy while they get the help they need to remain independent. As your senior loved one ages, giving them the gift of senior care is one of the best ways to show your love, even if you live far away.

Aging in Place: The Preferred Choice for Most Seniors

While it's true that some seniors have complicated medical needs that prevent them from staying at home, aging in place is often the best arrangement for seniors and their families. With a trusted caregiver, seniors have the opportunity to live with a sense of dignity and do so as they see fit.

In-home care makes it possible for millions of seniors to age in place every year. Rather than moving to a unfamiliar assisted living community, seniors have the chance to stay at home where they feel the happiest and most comfortable.

Here are just a few of the reasons why older men and women prefer to age at home:

Comfort
Comfort

How much does a senior's home truly mean to them? A study published by the American Society on Aging found that more than half of seniors say their home's emotional value means more than how much their home is worth in monetary value. It stands to reason, that a senior's home is where they want to grow old. With the help of elderly care in Rosemount, MN, seniors don't have to age in a sterilized care facility. Instead, they can age gracefully in the place they want to be most: their home. In contrast, seniors who move to a long-term care facility must adapt to new environments, new people, and new systems that the facility implements. At this stage in life, this kind of drastic change can be more harmful than helpful.

Healthy Living
Healthy Living

Institutional care facilities like nursing homes often put large groups of people together to live in one location. On any given day, dozens of staff members and caregivers run in and out of these facilities. Being around so many new people in a relatively small living environment can be dangerous for a seniors' health and wellbeing. When you consider that thousands of seniors passed away in nursing homes during the COVID-19 pandemic, opting for in-home care is often a safer, healthier choice for seniors. Aging in place has been shown to improve seniors' quality of life, which helps boost physical health and also helps insulate them from viral and bacterial risks found in elderly living facilities.

Independence
Independence

For many seniors, the ability to live independently with assistance from a caregiver is a priceless option. With in-home care, seniors experience a higher level of independence and freedom - much more so than in other settings like an assisted living community. When a senior has the chance to age in place, they get to live life on their own terms, inside the house that they helped make into a home. More independence means more control over their personal lives, too, which leads to increased levels of fulfillment, happiness, and personal gratification. Over time, these positive feelings can manifest into a healthier, longer life.

Cost and Convenience
Cost and Convenience

More independence, a healthier life, and increased comfort are only a few benefits of aging in place. You have to take into consideration the role of cost and convenience. Simply put, it's usually easier to help seniors age in place than it is to move them into an institutional care facility. In-home care services from Always Best Care, for instance, can be less expensive than long-term solutions, which can cost upwards of six figures per year. To make matters worse, many residential care facilities are reluctant to accept long-term care insurance and other types of payment assistance.

With Always Best Care's home care services, seniors and their families have a greater level of control over their care plans. In-home care in Rosemount, MN gives seniors the chance to form a bond with a trusted caregiver and also receive unmatched care that is catered to their needs. In long-term care facilities, seniors and their loved ones have much less control over their care plan and have less of a say in who provides their care.

Empowers Seniors

Affordable Care Plans

In-home care is a valuable resource that empowers seniors to age in place on their own terms. However, a big concern for many families and their loved ones is how much in-home care costs. If you're worried that in-home care is too expensive, you may be pleasantly surprised to learn that it is one of the most affordable senior care arrangements available.

Typically, hiring an Always Best Care in-home caregiver for a few hours a week is more affordable than sending your loved one to a long-term care facility. This is true even for seniors with more complex care needs.

At Always Best Care, we will work closely with you and your family to develop a Care Plan that not only meets your care needs, but your budget requirements, too. Once we discover the level of care that you or your senior need, we develop an in-home care plan that you can afford.

In addition to our flexible care options, families should also consider the following resources to help offset potential home care costs:

Veteran's Benefits
Veteran's Benefits

Aid and Attendance benefits through military service can cover a portion of the costs associated with in-home care for veterans and their spouses.

Long-Term Care Insurance
Long-Term Care Insurance

Many senior care services like in-home care are included in long-term care insurance options. Research different long-term care solutions to find a plan that provides coverage for senior care.

Private Insurance
Private Insurance

Home care can be included as part of a senior's private insurance plan. Read over your loved one's insurance policy carefully or speak with their insurance provider to determine if in-home care is covered.

Life Insurance
Life Insurance

Depending on the life insurance plan, you may be able to apply your policy toward long-term care. You may be able to use long-term-care coverage to help pay for in-home elderly care.


Respite Care Rosemount, MN

During your Care Plan consultation with Always Best Care, your Care Coordinator will speak with you about in-home care costs and what options there may be to help meet your budget needs.

Compassionate Care. Trusted Caregivers

When you or your senior loved one needs assistance managing daily tasks at home, finding a qualified caregiver can be challenging. It takes a special kind of person to provide reliable care for your senior loved one. However, a caregiver's role involves more than meal preparation and medication reminders. Many seniors rely on their caregivers for companionship, too.

Our companion care services give seniors the chance to socialize in a safe environment and engage in activities at home. These important efforts boost morale and provide much-needed relief from repetitive daily routines. A one-on-one, engaging conversation can sharpen seniors' minds and give them something in which to be excited.

At Always Best Care, we only hire care providers that we would trust to care for our own loved ones. Our senior caregivers in Rosemount,MN understand how important it is to listen and communicate with their seniors. A seemingly small interaction, like a short hug goodbye, can make a major difference in a senior's day. Instead of battling against feelings of isolation, seniors begin to look forward to seeing their caregiver each week.

Understanding the nuances of senior care is just one of the reasons why our care providers are so great at their job.

Unlike some senior care companies, our caregivers must undergo extensive training before they work for Always Best Care. In addition, our caregivers receive ongoing training throughout the year. This training ensures that their standard of care matches up to the high standards we've come to expect. During this training, they will brush up on their communication skills, safety awareness, and symptom spotting. That way, your loved one receives the highest level of non-medical home care from day one.

The Board of Regents is expected to vote on the $39.7 million deal, which would pave the way for a big new data center in Rosemount.

ROSEMOUNT, Minn. — The parent company of social media giants Facebook and Instagram is looking to purchase a piece of land in Minnesota for a new data center, and will pony up a serious chunk of change to make it happen.

Meta has struck a deal to purchase land in Rosemount currently owned by the University of Minnesota (U of M) to construct a new data center. The agenda for the Sept. 7 Board of Regents meeting lists the sale of 280 acres from the university's UMore Park holdings as being up for a vote by the finance and operations committee.

If the sale is approved Meta's new data operation would sit off County Road 42 close to Dakota County Technical College. The docket for Thursday's regents meeting says an application Meta filed with the Minnesota Public Utilities Commission indicates the technology campus would include "a couple main function buildings and additional ancillary buildings and support areas. The uses may include servers, administrative spaces, and support equipment in a campus setting of complimentary one-story buildings."

The negotiated sale price is just under $40 million, and the deal would be closed by the end of Jan. 2024.

MPR News reports that Meta had been trying to keep the project and proposed land purchase under wraps using a trade secret exemption since Xcel Energy filed a petition with the state to provide electricity for the data center last year.

Xcel's petition mentions only that the company has entered into an agreement with a "Fortune 100 Company" to provide electricity for a data center that would bring 50 full-time positions to Rosemount, along with another 150 indirect jobs related to the operation.

University of Minnesota regents voted Friday to sell 280 acres in Rosemount to Facebook parent Meta for a $700 million data center project.

The full board took up the $39.7 million UMore Park land sale after the Finance and Operations Committee approved it on Thursday. Robyn Gulley was the lone vote against the deal.

"It's not often you can get a $700 million investment coming into Minnesota with a company like Meta," said Regent Doug Huebsch, chair of the committee, at the Thursday meeting of the Board of Regents'

Gulley raised the issue of possibly having a labor agreement in place to protect workers involved in building the facility.

A Meta representative could not be reached for comment.

The data center site is in the northeast section of the expansive 4,772-acre UMore Park, where the University has been trying to spur development for decades.

For several years, the Minnesota Department of Employment and Economic Development and Xcel Energy's Certified Sites program have been marketing the site on the university's behalf. The Board of Regents' meeting materials said that a "number of national entities have studied the site for potential development."

The city of Rosemount and Greater MSP also have been involved.

"This is an active and competitive project that is significant for the region," said Peter Frosch, CEO of regional economic development group Greater MSP. "We will continue to support it."

California-based Meta Platforms Inc. is the parent of Facebook, Instagram and other messaging applications. Last year the company cancelled several data center projects as part of a broader restructuring.

Meta will be responsible for all infrastructure and utilities costs for the data center except for relocating a university water line, according to information in the regents' packet for Friday's meeting.

The sale is expected to close by the end of January.

The UMore site was home to a smokeless gunpowder plant built during World War II. The federal government deeded the land to the university after the war.

A significant housing development is underway on a different parcel of UMore Park. Minneapolis-based Maplewood Development is the master developer for Amber Fields, which calls for more than 2,000 homes on 435 acres.

The housing and data center are signs that development interest in UMore Park is picking up.

"There's definitely been quite a bit of interest really in the last four years or so," said Eric Van Oss, Rosemount's economic development coordinator.

Rosemount, Minn. could be the home of a new large data center run by Meta, the parent company of Facebook and Instagram.

A filing with the Minnesota Public Utilities Commission on Friday confirmed Meta, through a subsidiary based in Roseville, Minn., is the company behind the $700 million data center project.

If approved, the $700 million data center would be located on 280 acres of UMore Park property next to Dakota County Technical College and will be powered with renewable energy.

The University of Minnesota Board of Regents finance and operations committee will vote Thursday on whether to approve the $40 million land purchase.

The name of the company had been considered confidential under a trade secret exemption since Xcel Energy first filed a petition with the state to provide electricity to the proposed data center last year.

That petition indicated the data center would bring 50 full-time permanent jobs to Rosemount, along with 150 new and sustained indirect jobs.

Rosemount mayor Jeff Weisensel would not comment specifically on Meta’s plans because of a nondisclosure agreement, but said the major project has been in the works for a while.

“This area that they are potentially purchasing has not been on the tax rolls for many years, because it's been part of the university” he told MPR News. “And so having that type of … property taxes coming to our city, yes, that would be impactful, very impactful.”

Weisensel said the project would go a long way toward helping his goal of Rosemount becoming a regional hub for innovation and emerging technologies.

If approved by the university Board of Regents, the land transaction is expected to close in early 2024, with construction beginning at some point after.
