Good Samaritan Society – Marillac Manor

Good Samaritan Society - Marillac Manor sits in Bismarck, North Dakota, as a two-story senior living community that offers many care options, working with both the Good Samaritan Society and Marillac Manor Retirement Center. Folks can choose independent living, assisted living, memory care, long-term care, and both inpatient and outpatient rehabilitation, so people at different life stages and care needs are welcome, and there's also respite care and home-based services for those who need them. The place has private apartments - studio, one-bedroom, and two-bedroom - with utilities, basic satellite TV, emergency response systems, and maintenance all included, so there's less daily stress. You'll find chef-prepared meals planned for nutrition, served restaurant-style, and for spiritual needs, there's a church right on site plus chaplains on call around the clock, with the facility being Catholic-sponsored by the Diocese of Bismarck but open to anyone of any faith. Seniors have structured activities for social, physical, mental, and emotional wellness, with a spacious common room for events and a wellness center for regular programs, and anyone can go enjoy the landscaped grounds or walk the nearby Pioneer Park trails along the Missouri River. Marillac Manor encourages community by offering guest suites, salon services, scheduled transportation, and a focus on maintenance-free living so families can feel at ease. The staff work with a whole-person approach and have programs like the Good Samaritan Foundation, also partnering through Prospera with Sanford Health and the Evangelical Lutheran Good Samaritan Society to help keep care coordinated. Memory care services offer support for dementia or Alzheimer's disease, with therapies and routines to help keep residents safe from confusion or wandering. Skilled nursing and rehabilitation services help with recovery - whether someone needs short stays after an illness, support during rehab, or help with daily activities. The property gets noticed for care, support, and friendliness, though the facility just aims to keep things comfortable and welcoming, helping residents keep as much joy, health, and independence as possible. There's a focus on referrals, activities, meals, church services, outdoor time, and caregiver support. Marillac Manor takes new residents and their families on tours during weekdays from 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM, always hoping to be a steady support for seniors and the people around them.
