Cornerstone is Northern Minnesota's family-owned senior care provider, so your loved one can get the care they need without leaving the community they know.
Why Families Choose Cornerstone
50+ Years of Experience
Cornerstone has been caring for seniors and serving families since 1973. Few senior care organizations can match more than five decades of hands-on experience helping people age with dignity, independence and connection. This history provides a level of knowledge, stability and trust that cannot be quickly created or easily replicated.
Family-Owned & Locally Rooted
Cornerstone's decisions are shaped by people who have a personal connection to the company and the communities it serves. We are not a distant corporate organization making decisions from somewhere else. Our ownership, leadership and history are deeply connected to northern Minnesota, whose primary work has always been caring for others.
Personal Relationships
At Cornerstone, care is built around relationships between residents, caregivers, families and the broader community. Staff frequently develop relationships that extend well beyond a traditional caregiver role, with some residents describing caregivers as their “adopted family.” It is something we demonstrate through how we care rather than simply claim in our marketing.
Deep Community Stewardship
Cornerstone is more than a healthcare provider located within a community, we are an active participant in it. Through relationships with schools, churches, hospitals, counties, organizations, businesses and local families, Cornerstone contributes to the communities it serves and helps bring people together.
Small, Close-Knit Communities
Cornerstone intentionally operates smaller communities where people can know one another. This creates a more familiar, personal environment where residents are recognized as individuals, staff become familiar faces and families can develop relationships with the people caring for their loved ones.
A Community-Driven Continuum of Care
Cornerstone's range of services has grown in response to the needs of the communities we serve. Assisted living, memory care, skilled nursing, rehabilitation and independent living allow Cornerstone to provide different levels of support as people's needs change, while also helping communities retain these essential services locally.
Rooted in Community. Built on Compassion.
Since 1973, Cornerstone has served rural Northern Minnesota communities with a simple belief: seniors deserve exceptional care close to the people and places they love most.
Our reputation has been built through generations of trusted care, dedicated staff, strong community relationships, and a commitment to doing what's right for residents and families.
As a family-owned organization, we understand what it means to keep loved ones close to home. That's why our communities are designed to feel welcoming, comfortable, and familiar. Care means more when it feels like home.
Care That Feels Personal
At Cornerstone, care means relationships, connection, dignity, and peace of mind alongside day-to-day support. From assisted living and skilled nursing to memory care and rehabilitation, our communities help residents feel safe, supported, and truly at home.
