About Crest View on 42nd

Our senior communities in Blaine and Columbia Heights offer a lifestyle that provides socializing opportunities, access to fitness equipment, on-site worship services, appealing meals, home care, and a sense of security.

I’m often asked “when is a good time to talk about moving?” My answer is always it’s better a year too soon than a day too late. The best gift parents can give their loved ones is to make the decision to move to a senior community before a health crisis.

At Crest View, people can age in place. When a person needs additional services they can get them easily. The friends they’ve made are right there to support them in their recovery or transition. There’s much less isolation. And, there’s private space for peace and quiet too.

Family members sleep better knowing their aging parent is in a setting where they are cared for.

Masks are required in common areas in all buildings. I encourage you to get vaccinated and boosted as suggested by the CDC.

Come visit us and see what our 70-year-old nonprofit faith-based community has to offer.

My mother is a resident and she hasn't been bathed in over a month. I am reporting this to the Minnesota Department of Health.

It appears if you drink and smoke, you can get away with smoking in your apartment.
