Benedictine Living Community-Duluth

Benedictine Living Community-Duluth, also known as Benedictine Health Center, sits in Duluth and belongs to the larger Benedictine Health System, which follows the values of the Benedictine Sisters of the St. Scholastica Monastery and Catholic teachings. The community offers a wide range of care for older adults, providing independent living, assisted living, memory care, skilled nursing, rehabilitation, and home health services all on one campus, and the staff includes highly trained nurses, physicians, and specialized experts who work together to support residents with different needs. Benedictine Living Community-Duluth helps seniors who want the freedom of independent living or those needing help with daily tasks in assisted living, and there's also skilled nursing care for residents with ongoing illnesses and short-term rehabilitation plans that include physical, speech, and occupational therapy, plus a memory care program in a setting designed for people managing Alzheimer's disease or other dementias. People can take part in adult day programs for social activities or get home health and respite care, and the community provides spiritual care through access to a chapel and support for emotional well-being. The community holds a strong reputation for quality healthcare in the region and is a non-profit organization that takes part in many Minnesota state-funded programs, with financial aid options like the Elderly Waiver, Consumer Support Grant, VA Aid and Attendance, and Medicare Savings Program available to help cover costs. The community keeps a welcoming atmosphere, following core Benedictine values of Hospitality, Stewardship, Respect, and Justice, and focuses on helping underserved groups and people who might otherwise have nowhere else to go. Residents can access amenities such as rooms with cable TV and are invited to tour open rooms and explore their living options, and every service-from personal care and housekeeping to memory care and therapy-is set up to give seniors a comfortable place where staff respect their needs and help them feel at home.
