HomeDirectoryNursing HomeJones-Harrison Senior Living

A nonprofit senior living community overlooking Cedar Lake in Minneapolis, founded in 1888, offering assisted living, memory care, transitional/rehabilitation care and 24-hour long-term nursing care; now managed by Ebenezer.

Jones-Harrison Senior Living has operated on the same Cedar Lake-adjacent campus in Minneapolis since 1888, making it one of the oldest continuously operating senior communities in the city. The organization's own site lists its care continuum as assisted living, memory care, long-term care, and transitional/rehabilitation care with 24-hour nursing. As a private, nonprofit organization run by a volunteer board, Jones-Harrison reports more than 46,000 annual volunteer hours and roughly 220 resident activities.

The transitional care unit is aimed at short-term rehabilitation after a hospital stay, while the long-term care center provides ongoing skilled nursing for residents with complex medical needs. Jones-Harrison is now part of Ebenezer, described on the site as Minnesota's largest senior housing operator, which provides management and clinical oversight while Jones-Harrison retains its own nonprofit board and identity. The campus setting and lake views are repeatedly emphasized in the site's own marketing copy.

How Minnesota regulates this provider

Nursing homes in Minnesota are licensed under the separate Minnesota Statutes Chapter 144A, and carry a federal CMS Care Compare star rating in addition to state licensure. Families can pull current license status and inspection history free through the MDH Health Care Provider Directory.

Evaluating a skilled nursing facility

  • Pull both records: your state health department's survey history and the CMS Care Compare rating.
  • Ask whether the stay is expected to be short-term rehabilitation or long-term care, and what happens when Medicare coverage for rehabilitation ends.
  • Ask about therapy intensity and who provides it, since post-acute outcomes track closely with it.

Minneapolis in context

As the region's hub, Minneapolis carries the metro's deepest bench of hospital-affiliated senior care, anchored by Allina Health's Abbott Northwestern Hospital in the Whittier neighborhood and the University of Minnesota Medical Center / M Health Fairview campus along the Mississippi riverfront. The city's light-rail spine, where the METRO Blue and Green Lines converge downtown, puts a large share of its assisted living and memory care buildings within walking distance of a train stop, a rarity in the Twin Cities. Building stock ranges from converted early-1900s apartment blocks in neighborhoods like Loring Park to newer high-rise senior communities downtown and near the Chain of Lakes.

Questions families ask

Is independent living the same as assisted living in Minnesota?

No. Independent living apartments or cooperatives are housing only, with no licensed care services, and are not regulated under Chapter 144G. Assisted living facilities, by contrast, must hold an MDH license because they deliver health-related and supportive services — help with bathing, medication management, mobility — to residents where they live.

What's the difference between an MDH complaint and a MAARC abuse report?

MDH's Office of Health Facility Complaints (651-201-4200 metro, 1-800-369-7994 greater Minnesota) handles concerns about a licensed facility's regulatory compliance — things like understaffing or unsafe conditions — during business hours. The Minnesota Adult Abuse Reporting Center, or MAARC (1-844-880-1574), is the separate 24/7 statewide line for reporting suspected abuse, neglect, or financial exploitation of a specific vulnerable adult.

Will assisted living facilities in Minnesota be renamed or reclassified soon?

No reclassification is coming, but a new consumer-protection rule takes effect January 1, 2027: the term 'assisted living' becomes legally protected under Minn. Stat. 144G.10, subd. 5, meaning a community can only advertise or describe itself as 'assisted living' if it actually holds an MDH assisted living license under Chapter 144G.
