Quiet Oaks provides a place where beauty, peacefulness, and even joy can be experienced. When a person becomes a resident at Quiet Oaks, our home becomes their home. Residents may gather with family members for an impromptu concert around our grand piano, or enjoy a soothing bath in our private, oversized whirlpool tub. Massages are provided frequently and a number of residents enjoy having their hair cut and styled in our spa room. Family gatherings and private celebrations for birthdays or holidays may be held in our cottage on the premises.


The best way to learn about Quiet Oaks is to come and see for yourself. To arrange for a visit, call Executive Director Joe Bauer at 320) 255-5433, Ext: 4.

Costs


The daily fee is all-inclusive for the 24-hour nursing, home health aide, and personal services needed to provide the very best compassionate care for our residents.
The average length of stay is 2 weeks or less.


* The actual cost of care is approximately $500.00 per day. The "shortfall" between the daily fee and cost is covered by the generosity of people, foundations and businesses that support Quiet Oaks and our mission, as well as by the many families who ask that memorials be made in their loved one's name.


Compassionate Pricing Available

Before making a decision about whether Quiet Oaks is right for you or a loved one, we strongly encourage you to visit us. To the best of our financial ability, we are committed to never turn patients away due to inability to pay. We have a compassionate and competitive mindset. Through donations, memorials, and widespread support of community benefactors, we provide "compassionate pricing" to people with limited financial resources. You are encouraged to contact Quiet Oaks Executive Director, Joe Bauer, RN for further information at (320) 255-5422, Ext: 4.
