The Estates at Fridley

It was a privilege to have completed my MSW internship hours at The Estates at Fridley under the supervisor of Emily Armstrong and Natalie Kenyon. This place is amazing and the staff here are incredible, they go above and beyond to ensure that resident's needs are met every day. Max, the administrator is simply wonderful, he does his best by making sure that everything is in order and staff are doing what they are supposed to do. He always checks in on the residents to know if they need anything and handles issues in a professional minor. The nurses are great, they do their job with so much ease and commitment! Interning alongside Emily was such a wonderful experience that I won't trade for anything because over the space of three months she taught me so much about the field that I was not aware of. During the time I spend at this location, Emily always came into work with an enthusiastic spirit and this was something I admire about her. I am so grateful for the relationship that I was able to build with her during my stay because she is a lovely person. She answered any questions I had and contributed immensely to what I learned while working with her and in the classroom. Natalie is magnificent, she told me so much about the Social Work field that would be beneficial to me in years to come. She told me the do's and don'ts and what to expect while on the field. Above all Natalie and Emily told me that Social Work is an amazing field and I won't regret choosing this path. One thing that I really love while interning at this location was the Mental Health class that I attended. I learned so much from the class and I am grateful for the opportunity. The Estates at Fridley is a great location, unlike other places I have interned in the past, this place is smaller and easier to move around, also you have a better chance of knowing each of the residents. Everyone here was welcoming the nurses, staff in the business office, therapy team, aids, kitchen staff, and the list goes on! Lastly, I highly recommend this place to students who are looking for internships and anyone who is looking for a safe, clean, and decent facility for their loved ones.

i've have live there for year and half and still am living there. it does not smell in there. the only thing i can complain about is the food
