It's a beautiful building, very well designed and decorated. It's less expensive than other popular places. The food is quite good. Nearly all the staff are kind and good people. Some of the aides are not careful about details like properly administering meds, or correctly putting in hearing aids. That is my main concern. But I think that would be the case elsewhere.

Many of the staff members there have changed over the past year which has upset my mother in law. However, based on the experience we have had we would recommend Amira Choice to other families.

Review for Amira Choice of Bloomington
Fabulous. Great, brand new facilities. Felt much more like a hotel/resort than an old folks home which we thought would be more appealing to loved one's husband since he was more appropriate for independent living than assisted living. Good level of activities and community available. Not overwhelmingly large. Particularly loved that in addition to typical levels of care available, also have some quasi-hospital suites next to nurse's station for when things get more serious or loved one needs highest level of care. Didn't love that it is in a congested area near high-rises/highways but that made it sooooooo convenient to our house and we as adult children could have been dramatically more helpful. Alas, could not convince them to leave Iowa, even for a couple of respite months.

I would tell others that it's a beautiful place and nearly everyone is friendly. But it costs more than other places in the area. Not sure why.

Staff is very friendly
Friendly staff. Beautiful accommodations. Been a turnover of staff lately that has been upsetting to my mother in law. Staff is very friendly, though. Lots of activities as long as there isn't an outbreak of Covid. And when there is an outbreak of Covid they take it very seriously which as a family member I greatly appreciate. No housekeeping. There is a woman in the building that does it on the side but that has been on and off. My mother in law really likes her, but she doesn't show up all the time.

March 16, 2023
Hello, thank you for taking the time to leave feedback and your kind words about our community. I can appreciate concerns surrounding when staff leaves, such as our nursing director's recent departure, but we respect that she had other endeavors she wished to pursue. We are looking forward to the arrival of our next nursing director, who myself and Alees, the executive director, both worked with previously. I assure you that she'll be a fantastic addition to our team! As for housekeeping, we do have our own, who predominantly assist our assisted living residents as part of a base package. Still, if your mother-in-law is Independent Living, she could still contract them for an additional fee. If you have any questions about that, or anything else, please don't hesitate to call me directly at (612) 222-3954.

Would love to see improvement.
Beautiful place and many employees are excellent but the leasing agent said whatever he thought we wanted to hear and even outright lied at times to get the sale. Just 10 WEEKS after we moved our dad in, they increased his rent 6%. They only offer month to month leases so with a month's notice, rent can go up anytime.

Thank you for taking the time to share your experience with us. I am sorry you felt you had a negative experience with me and that your father's rent was increased shortly after moving in. We at Amira Choice want to assure you that honesty and transparency are values we hold in high regard, and we apologize for any miscommunication or misinformation that may have been provided during the leasing process. We have reached out to you several times to address your concerns, but unfortunately, we have not heard back from you or had the opportunity to have a conversation about how we can make things right. We understand that finding a safe and comfortable home for your loved ones is of utmost importance, and we would like to work with you to address your concerns and make any necessary improvements. Regarding the rent increase, we understand that it can be frustrating when unexpected expenses arise. However, we strive to provide high-quality services and amenities to all of our residents, and occasional rent adjustments are necessary to maintain and improve our community. We would like to invite you to speak with our management team to discuss your concerns further and to work towards a resolution. We value your feedback and want to ensure that all of our residents feel heard and supported. Thank you again for your feedback, and we hope to have the opportunity to address your concerns and regain your trust in the future.

Nice Place-Be Careful with Leasing Process
They are doing well with the food and activites. They could do better with, communicating the billing procedures, and the leasing process. The administration staff is terrible.

Overall, my mother-in-law has been happy with the facility/care. But like any place, some staff members are better than others in her opinion. I think there's sometimes limited space for activities. Also, sending emails/newsletters about upcoming family events would be nice. Maybe that's already done and we just haven't seen it.

Nice place as long as you don't need any help
Beautiful place. Nice common areas and nice units with a variety of floor plans. Food is good with a nice variety. Assisted living plan is pretty much a farce. Weeks go by without anyone coming in to clean or do laundry. Daily nurse visits, what's that? The place is woefully understaffed. If you want a nice place to stay and not cook it's probably a good choice. If you need someone to come help you with something, I'd look elsewhere.

Excellent experiences all around!
From the initial tour, then working with the marketing/sales staff, through the move-in and continuing today, our experience at Amira Choice has been nothing but wonderful! Our family member is well cared for and respected by staff, the food is excellent, and there are many activities that residents can choose to participate in. We are very happy with our (difficult) choice to make regarding placement in memory care but we are so pleased our family member is living here!

our families experience
Our loved one really likes the apartment she has for what it is - it is upscale, clean, spacious and new which is actually what drew us to the community. However our loved one is needed and paying for certain services and unfortunately she is not getting them, so they could work more on bettering their follow through process.

Tips for evaluating your community options

Safety is a primary concern when seniors and their families look for Assisted Living. To ensure that a community meets your needs and expectations, we recommend that seniors and family members:

  • Tour the location: Touring allows you to speak to current residents and staff, and helps you confirm the accuracy of the community description and photos. Use our touring checklist to help guide your visit.

  • Confirm the availability of required services: Before you commit, make sure that the community offers all the services your senior needs, and that those services can be provided within your budget.

  • Know the Minnesota regulations for Assisted Living: Each state has its own laws and inspections processes to ensure seniors reside in a safe environment. Depending on your state, you may even be able to look up inspection reports for the community(ies) you’re considering. Learn more about Minnesota regulations for Assisted Living.
