Lovely Thank You Note to our Amazing Associates

Lovely Thank You Note to our Amazing Associates

August 20th, 2021

We recently received a very kind, heartfelt message from the daughter of a former resident couple who both sadly passed away earlier this year. In her letter, she expressed her gratitude for all the amazing associates here at Eagan Pointe Senior Living:

“You make a difference! Not only for the residents but for their families as well. I will miss seeing all of you. Just know how much I loved you for your help and appreciated each and every one of you for the specialized jobs you give your hear to. I know it’s not easy, but THANK YOU for being part of my life as I cared for my parents in their final years. I’ll always be grateful to Eagan Pointe Senior Living.” – Karen J.

Thank you for sharing your thoughtful and heartwarming words, Karen. Incredible people like your parents are what make our community so amazing, and we’re so grateful to have had the opportunity to get to know them over the last few years. They will be missed by many here at Eagan Pointe.

Heartwarming Thank You Letter

June 29th, 2021

Eagan Pointe’s Residence Director, Renee, and Assistant Residence Director, Mickey, received a heartwarming thank you letter from the daughter of a former community member who sadly passed away earlier this year:

“Thank you both for helping to take care of mom this past year. It was a journey that started in 2016 and now she is at peace.

Thank you, Mickey, for managing the calls, the mail, and so many other details. And Renee, for your communications and overall management of life at Eagan Pointe. I couldn’t have done it without your support and knowing how much you cared for mom.

Eagan Pointe will always have a special place in my heart and in my mind.” – Susan

We can’t tell you how much your kind, thoughtful words mean to us, Susan. We are so lucky to have had such an amazing person with us in our community, and she will be missed by many here at Eagan Pointe.

St. Patrick’s Day Spirit & Retirement Celebration for Char

April 9th, 2021

The St. Patrick’s Day spirit was certainly present at Eagan Pointe last month thanks to some crafty residents and thoughtful gifts from a family member.

Residents of our Garden Cove units created lovely leprechauns for fun, festive decorations. The daughter of our friend and community member, George F., also donated medical-grade surgical masks with St. Patrick’s Day prints for our staff to wear on the holiday. Thank you for the amazing and very kind gifts! Who needs lucky clovers when you’re surrounded by such incredible, caring people? ?☘

We had a bittersweet day at Eagan Pointe when we celebrated the retirement of friend and associate, Char. She was a member of our housekeeping team for nearly 4.5 years and we are so lucky to have had her as part of our community. We can’t thank her enough for all the hard work, compassion, and dedication she’s provided us over the years!

Char will be moving to Arizona in August and will be greatly missed by our associates and residents. Please join us in congratulating and wish Char a very happy retirement!

Lovely Note of Thanks

March 31st, 2021

At Eagan Pointe, we focus on the happiness and well-being of our residents in everything we do, and we always appreciate hearing when it shows. Our staff recently received a lovely note of thanks from the family of a former community member:

“Thank you to all the staff at Eagan Pointe for all the help and care you provided through the years that Donna lived there. The nursing staff and all the admin staff, also the aides – thank you!” – Mike, Susi, and all the family of Donna G.

Thank you all for the kind, heartwarming words. Incredible people like Donna are what make Eagan Pointe such an amazing community, and we are so lucky and grateful to have had her with us.

Bringing the Halloween Spirit to Eagan Pointe

November 10th, 2020

We certainly got into the Halloween spirit here at Eagan Pointe last month! Several residents made Halloween lanterns of either Frankenstein’s monster, a ghost, or a more classic jack-o’-lantern. We also made treat bags for students at the nearby St. John Neumann Preschool. In return, they gave us handcrafted pumpkins for a pumpkin patch. And since they couldn’t join us in-person, they also sent us photos of the children all dressed up for a “costume parade.” Thank you so much for the kind, fun, and festive gifts – they’re the perfect Halloween decorations for us all to admire and enjoy!

We kept the Halloween theme rolling with a socially distanced coloring activity! Participants tapped into their artistic side while coloring a “Happy Halloween” picture, and the results were boo-tiful. Take a look! ????

Eagan Pointe’s leadership team members dressed up as pumpkins for Halloween this year. Check out how great they looked all together as a pumpkin patch! And, since Halloween is all about fun, we had to strike a pose for the traditional “silly picture!”

More Halloween fun to close out the month of October! We held a “zombie hunt” activity where residents searched for hidden “zombies” all around Eagan Pointe. The hunt was successful and the participants received yummy caramel apples as their prize.

Father’s Day and Birthday Celebrations

We honored the fathers of Eagan Pointe all weekend long with a photograph display in our blue lounge. We hope you all had an amazing Father’s Day!

Memorial Day Activities

May 29th, 2020

Although this Memorial Day looked a little different for Eagan Pointe, we participated in different Memorial Day activities to remember and honor the brave souls who gave everything for our country. 

The residents on the Garden Coves had a good time putting some floral decorations together for Memorial Day. Here are their red, white, and blue creations!

We also made sure to recognize the Veterans and the Veterans Wives that live here. All our residents that were either Veterans or Veterans Wives put a ribbon on their door to recognize their contribution to our country. 

Thank you to all who have served and their families that supported them!

Honoring Mothers at Eagan Pointe & Enjoying Homemade Egg Bake

May 19th, 2020

To honor the Mothers at Eagan Pointe, we had family members send in pictures of their mothers and we created a “We Love Our Mothers” wall. ❤

Our staff served tenants of Eagan Pointe a hot breakfast of homemade egg bake, hash browns and delicious bread. 

One tenant sent along a note of gratitude:

“Renee, Mickey, Taylor and all the others: What a treat!! Thanks much for the delicious breakfast/brunch – better than going out to eat. You are really taking good care of us. We do appreciate it. Thanks!” – Jean C.
