Diamond Willow and Keystone Bluffs Assisted Living is a senior care organization founded in 2004, originally created as a bridge between traditional assisted living and traditional nursing home care.
The organization operates small, intimate community settings of 8-16 residents per home, with site-based RNs who work alongside onsite leadership and direct care staff to meet residents' needs. Their model is designed to allow elderly clients to live in a home-like environment through end of life. The organization has multiple Minnesota locations, including Detroit Lakes, Cloquet, and Duluth. For nursing professionals, Diamond Willow offers a unique setting compared to large institutional facilities. RNs serve in a site-based capacity, working closely with direct care staff and onsite leadership in small-community environments. The organization emphasizes person-centered care and positions itself as a leader in Assisted Living and Memory Care. However, employee reviews indicate significant concerns around management quality, pay, and workplace culture, with an overall Indeed rating of 2.8 out of 5 stars based on 139 reviews.
