We are proud to serve you. Martin Luther Campus is managed by Ebenezer, Minnesota's largest senior living operator.
As part of the Ebenezer family of Senior Care communities, we are dedicated to helping older adults and others make their lives more independent, healthful, meaningful, and secure. It is our goal to respond to the physical, psychological, social and spiritual dimensions of the whole person, encouraging continued learning and innovation, and striving for excellence in all that we do. Ebenezer is the senior housing division of Fairview Health Services and has 100 years of experience serving older adults. We have been innovators with being the first assisted living in Minnesota, and have an attached long term care, or traditionally called a "nursing home".

Martin Luther Campus staff were pleased to attend this impressive event as a partner of Bloomington Public Schools. We are grateful to serve as an intergenerational site for our neighbors at Indian Mounds Elementary, as well as a hands-on learning site for students from Jefferson and Kennedy High Schools. These meaningful partnerships enrich the lives of both our residents and the students in our community. Thank you, BPS, for your strong presence in our community!

We often call ourselves a teaching campus—so what does that mean?
It means we’re privileged to support students as they learn and grow in the science and art of caring for older adults with dignity, compassion, and even joy.
Pictured here is a group of Normandale students on their final day of clinicals, ready for what’s next in their training. They move forward understanding the important nursing role they play in the health of patients.
At Martin Luther Campus, we take pride in helping shape caregivers. Preparing quality caregivers—now and into the future—is a responsibility we hold close.
To this group, and to all who have come before and will follow: congratulations, and thank you. We’re grateful for your passion, dedication, and willingness to learn.
And to Normandale Community College —thank you for your continued partnership, along with the many schools we’re fortunate to work with. We’re honored to be part of your journey.

This March and every day of the year, we celebrate the incredible social workers at Martin Luther Campus in Bloomington, across Ebenezer, and throughout our community. Along with connecting people to resources—they walk alongside those we serve, offering compassion and guidance.
They are advocates, listeners, problem-solvers, and steady hands in times of uncertainty. Whether holding a hand, navigating complex systems, or standing firmly on the side of what’s right, their impact is immeasurable.
A special shoutout to the Martin Luther Campus Team—Betsy, Bari, Abby and Amanda.
Thank you amazing social workers—thank you for the heart, dedication, and strength you bring every single day. We are so grateful for you!
