Care Options Network

Care Options Network Connecting MPLS – St. Paul & surrounding areas, older adults to housing & services for over 30 years. Our vision – Make aging easier!

Our mission – Connect members to senior care resources and encourage relationship building to help community seniors. Care Options Network is the most widely used and respected information resource for senior care professionals in the Twin Cities, Minnesota, and surrounding areas. Now, for the first time, we are sharing our comprehensive data with you in this fully searchable website. We’ve collected and organized services for older adults. No personal information or fee is required from you to use this website to help you find the services you need. History
Since our inception in 1989, our focus at Care Options Network has been to support social workers who are often the first referral source to older adults, caregivers, and their families looking for housing or services. In order to assist this referral relationship, we publish The GuideBook, a spiral-bound annual reference book that many who use it call their “bible.”

Growth
When we started this network, there were 100 senior care members and today we are one of the most comprehensive member-supported networks with over 1,000 members. Our members range from home care providers to elder law attorneys to senior living communities. Care Options Network reaches out annually to each member to accurately collect current information and convey it impartially. In addition to assisting with member referrals, Care Options Network also serves its members with marketing and networking support.

Tomorrow is Veterans Day! 🇺🇸 Honor a Hero in your life or all of America's Hero's by doing something special:
1. Support Veteran-Owned Businesses: Make a point to shop at local businesses owned by veterans. This not only supports their efforts but also strengthens the community.
2. Attend a Veterans Day Parade or Event: Many cities host parades, ceremonies, and events to honor veterans. Participating in these events is a great way to show support and learn more about the sacrifices made by service members.
3. Visit a VA Hospital: Consider volunteering at a local Veterans Affairs hospital. Many facilities appreciate help, and spending time with veterans can be a rewarding experience.
4. Send Thank You Cards or Videos: Compile a list of veterans you know and send them thank you cards or videos expressing your appreciation for their service. This simple gesture can mean a lot.
5. Participate in Community Service: Organize or join community service projects that benefit veterans and their families. This could include fundraising for veteran charities or helping with local events.
6. Enjoy Free or Discounted Meals: Many restaurants offer free meals or discounts to veterans on Veterans Day. Check with local establishments to see what they offer and take a Veteran to lunch!
7. Listen to Veterans' Stories: Invite veterans to speak at schools or community events. Hearing their experiences can provide valuable insights and foster appreciation among younger generations.
8. Visit a State Park or Museum: Many parks and museums offer free entry on Veterans Day. Take advantage of this opportunity to explore and learn more about military history.
🗽By engaging in these activities, you can honor the sacrifices of veterans and show your appreciation for their service on Veterans Day.

Good afternoon, I'm Silver Maple! I'm gracefully positioned in Eden Prairie, MN,and I must confess, I take considerable pride in my elegant accommodations. Private suites? Naturally. All-inclusive luxury care? Of course. Staff available around the clock? Always. I handle everything from housekeeping to personal care with the kind of attention to detail that makes life truly comfortable. My residents appreciate that I combine sophistication with genuine warmth. When I'm not busy exceeding expectations, I'm simply being the distinguished home I was meant to be.

Helping social workers connect seniors with housing and services since 1989

Our story Care Options Network started from a need. A senior, the mother of one of our founders, fell and needed transitional care after hospitalization.

Social workers did not have a comprehensive reference tool to identify skilled nursing facilities at the time of discharge. The SeniorCare GuideBook was born from this need.

Since that time, from 1989 to present, a new edition is printed annually. And now – the online version for seniors, families and professionals – is updated at your request!
