Overall Review of New Perspective Eagan

common 22 reviews mention this

Staff are consistently described as kind

Residents and families repeatedly describe the staff as caring and responsive.

Across the reviews, people describe staff as friendly, welcoming, and genuinely invested in residents. Multiple reviewers mention smooth help during the move or transition, with staff available to answer questions and communicate about care. There are also a small number of unhappy accounts that describe failures to meet basic needs or manage medications, which is the main counterpoint to the otherwise consistent praise.

common 9 reviews mention this

Activities and outings keep days full

Residents describe plenty of activities, including outings and games.

Several reviews highlight scheduled daily activities along with entertainment options such as bingo, card groups, and games. Others mention excursion opportunities for lunch, groceries, and shopping, plus shuttled day trips. A couple of reviews also point to amenities tied to activities, like common spaces for entertainment and resources residents can use as part of their routine.

Memory care support stands out

Families moving loved ones into memory care describe a smooth, supportive transition.

One reviewer describes help transitioning into memory care with care and communication focused on meeting needs as they changed. Another mentions choosing the community for a parent with dementia and credits staff with easing fears during the move. This aligns with the way the community offers memory-focused programming and related support in its care services.

common 5 reviews mention this

Food is generally described positively

Food receives generally positive feedback, with fewer complaints than other topics.

Several reviews describe meals as good or even great, and some mention the dining room experience during visits. At least one long-term resident account says there have been no issues with cuisine. A small number of reviews take a more mixed view, noting the food as OK, while overall comments trend more positive than negative.

caveat 3 reviews mention this

Pricing concerns come up repeatedly

Pricing is a clear sticking point in multiple reviews.

Some reviewers call the cost high, describing it as a major concern compared with what they expected. One unhappy account focuses on a pattern of basic requirements not being met, while another points to specific charges and late-fee concerns. These criticisms stand out because many other reviews focus on positive day-to-day experiences and support.

common 2 reviews mention this

Location supports easy visiting

Reviewers value the location for visit convenience and day-to-day errands.

Some families specifically choose the community because it is convenient for visiting, and another reviewer mentions liking the location along with the overall setup. That visit-and-errand convenience is supported by nearby dining, pharmacies, and common services within a few miles.
