At Edgewood Mandan at Lakewood we are made up of amazing team members. We are made up of residents who embrace change. We are made up of families who jump in to help.
Yes, this building was built on a foundation, but what truly makes it strong is the foundation of Edgewood love. Over the past eight months, it has taken all hands on deck to bring this community to life — from our regional support team to our sister sites across the street and across the river, to our own families who showed up to help make this place shine.
Danielle Zins, now Executive Director, brought with her not only years of experience from Edgewood Village in Bismarck, but also her whole family’s support. Her kids landscaped the grounds, her husband mowed the grass, and her mom proudly gave tours. Bill, our maintenance director who once worked at Edgewood Dominion in Bismarck, poured his experience into every project, while his wife rolled up her sleeves to clean apartments. Beyond our core team, we’ve had sales and clinical support, additional leadership, nurses stepping in to support residents, office staff learning new processes, and team members training side by side to help us grow. Their willingness to jump in proved that all this community really needed was a little Edgewood love to feel like home.
Construction and remodels are no easy feat, but our crews pulled together with early mornings and late nights. And the upgrades? Nothing short of exciting. More office space means room for a growing team and growing success. And the addition of a commercial kitchen for our Independent and Assisted Living residents, something the building never had before, has been a joy to watch come alive.
This community is living proof that it takes more than a village… it takes a family. Everyone has had a hand in building something truly special here. And when we work together, no one gets left behind, our residents get the very best care. We are Edgewood.
