Please join us at Mill City on April 30th to gain a clear understanding of what hospice care is, when it may be appropriate, and the services hospice provides.

This informative event is hosted by Emerald Wings Hospice and is open to our residents, their families, and members of the community. All are welcome to attend and learn more in a supportive, welcoming setting.

We hope you’ll join us for this valuable conversation.

We know what typically comes to mind when people hear the word “hospice.”
For many, it brings fear, uncertainty, and difficult emotions.
But we at Emerald Wings want to help change that reaction.
Hospice means so much more.
And it’s so much more when it really matters.

Even though we welcome April today with forecasts of snow and ice, there’s no denying the extra spring in the step, the sun’s growing warmth, and the overall sense of hope this time of year brings.

Ol’ Bill had it right. A youthful spirit can be felt in everything. Embrace it.

What if care came to you?

We understand the toll managing medical care can take on patients and families.

Appointments. Waiting rooms. Transportation. Weather. Just the effort it takes just to get there can be overwhelming.

But what if care came to you?

Emerald Wings can do exactly that!
Our team is passionate about education, intention, support and providing premium care - that comes right to you.

Reach out and let us help guide you through what hospice can be.

🍀 Happy St. Patrick’s Day! 🍀

There’s something about this time of year—
a little more green, a little more light,
and a reminder that fresh seasons are always ahead.

At Emerald Wings, green has always meant something special.
It’s growth. It’s renewal. It’s life.

Today, we’re celebrating all of it.
Wishing you a day full of brightness, fresh energy,
and maybe just a little extra luck. 💚

Sláinte!

March is National Social Work Month!

At Emerald Wings, we are deeply grateful for the social workers who walk beside our patients and families every day.

They bring clarity in confusion.
Calm in crisis.
Advocacy when it matters most.

They protect dignity.
They create connection.
They help families navigate some of life’s hardest moments.

We see you. We value you. We thank you. 💚

Today is National Caregivers Day!

For us at Emerald Wings, it's so fitting that we celebrate Caregivers so soon after Valentine's Day, because love is truly at the core of caregiving.
Some of us have been called to be a Caregiver as a profession, and we want to recognize you all today! What you do is amazing!
But we also see that ALL of us are Caregivers in one way or another.

We want all of you to know....
We see you. We thank you. We are here to walk with you.

To the kids who rearrange their schedules.
To the spouses who sit bedside steadfast.
To the aides who bathe, reposition, comfort, and notice the smallest changes.
To the nurses who answer the phone every time it rings.

Caregiving is a quiet marathon.
It is steady. Faithful. Exhausting. Sacred.

You're doing it all!
And you're not alone.
We honor and celebrate you!

Love is the thread that weaves every life together.

On this Valentine's Day, we reflect on all there is to love and be grateful for.

Happy Valentine's Day!

Every day is a good day to celebrate love!
But this time of year has an extra special feel to it. Our thanks to Gable Pines at Vadnais Heights for helping us arrange a little celebration for these two!
