Similar to the level of care provided at assisted living facilities, the state of North Dakota licenses basic care facilities to provide residential care for those who qualify. In keeping with our values of Hospitality, Stewardship, Respect and Justice, Ellendale basic care is designed to provide medical care and assistance with activities of daily living — including bathing, eating and medication management — based on individual needs and preferences. We also strive to provide long-term care that empowers the highest level of independence possible.
