All About Us!
The Newport House is located in Washington County off Highway 61 just north of St. Paul Park. Some of the individuals attend PAI in Oakdale and the others go to Lifeworks in Eagan.
We are on the go between appointment and work and enjoy activities out of the house which keeps our van on the road and out of the garage. We are walking distance from the Mississippi River, The North Pole Restaurant, Tinucci’s Restaurant, and Newport Lutheran Church. We include the individuals in all aspects of daily living such as the “daily chores” - they have fun dancing around and cleaning!
We have vast experience with G/J-Tubes, catheters, feeding pumps, hoyer lifts, and heavy med passes.
