Horrible!
My mother was there until she broke her hip. Then the vice president of operations, [name removed] wrongfully, terminated her contract, and refused to allow her to return. Thankfully, I had every piece of documentation of services they provide and hired an attorney. I won my case, and she was allowed to return. In the interim, she had been placed by the hospital in a HORRIBLE home nursing home facility, The building administrator and staff were appalled that she was kicked out. They wrongfully terminated the local building administrator. The vice president of operations is trying to change the state stuff as he does not want any residents on hospice. This is a memory care unit. Unfortunately, due to the progression of the disease most if not all residents end up on hospice. The nursing assistants were wonderful and did the best they could under a horrible leadership of corporate greed and incompetence! My mom has since passed. Stay away!

Warm, welcoming place
We've been very happy with them. The setting is really nice. There are a limited number of patients, so it's not overly large or overwhelming. I really like the layout of the rooms. It's very homey for my mother. It's like she has her own little apartment, and it's exactly as big as she needs it to be - not too big, not too small. The room is split into two with a partial wall between the sleeping area and the living area. It's really cute and easy to decorate to feel like home. And the staff have been very friendly and supportive.

BEWARE - NOT A GOOD PLACE FOR LOVED ONES
Do not place your loved one here! The staff (if that's what you call it is horrible, starting foremost with the Director [name removed]). She is cold and shouldn't be in this type of business, she has no personal skills when it comes to the residents. If asked to help an aid, she will straight up deny the help saying "she is busy or where is the other aid" The night shift is short staffed, and for the overnight shift, the director does nothing about the aides that sleep at night leaving all of the work to 1 person!

Beware
Beware. [removed] [removed] My dad was there in 2016. We did remove him for what seemed like lack of care. There definitely was not enough trained staff for the type of clients they took on. And a lot of the employees came from the VFW. So the newspaper articles fit with what I saw.

needed more care than they could provide
My auntie is no longer at Gracewood of Hugo. When she got here I didn't know she was not doing well. She was only in this facility an hour when they realized she needed more care than they could provide. She had to go into a nursing home. She needed 24 hour nursing care. Shelly is terrific here. She is just a gem. They have a really nice facility. I was sorry that my auntie couldn't stay here.

Tips for evaluating your community options

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

  • Know Minnesota’s regulations for memory care. Each state has its own laws and inspection 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 communities you’re considering. Learn more about Minnesota’s regulations for memory care and download the Guide to Senior Living Licensure and Inspection Reports.

  • Tour the location. Touring allows you to speak to current residents and staff, and it 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 committing, make sure that the community offers all the services your loved one needs, and that those services can be provided within your budget.

A Place for Mom has scored Encore at Hugo 8 out of 10 using our proprietary review score.   We assign review scores to give a more reliable view into senior living communities and home care agencies. Our review scores prioritize reviews that are recent — the past 24 months — because we know families need current information when choosing senior care.   Those with many recent, positive reviews receive a high review score, while providers with few recent reviews — regardless of how positive — receive a lower review score. Communities with no recent reviews will not have a review score, even if older reviews are positive. The maximum A Place for Mom review score a community can receive is 10 points.
