Benedictine Villa Assisted Living sits along the banks of the Mississippi River and has served older adults since 1965, offering a faith-based community shaped by Catholic values. Residents can choose from comfortable studios, one-bedroom, or two-bedroom suites that come fully furnished, with private bathrooms and kitchenettes in some layouts, and the apartments allow for either private or semi-private living, which works well for different needs and preferences. There's free Wi-Fi and cable TV in the rooms, and the whole building is designed for ease with wheelchair accessibility and emergency call systems in place for safety. The campus feels peaceful and home-like, with big windows, outdoor decks and patios, and colorful gardens. Plenty of common spaces like the small library, dining room, chapel, and arts room invite residents to gather, join activities, or sit quietly together.
Friendly staff provide help around the clock, whether that means helping with medication, bathing, dressing, or other daily routines, and the nursing team is always on-call for extra support. Housekeeping and laundry happen regularly, three meals a day get served restaurant-style in the dining room with special diets respected, and transportation is available for appointments or outings. Residents join daily planned activities, fitness classes, or social gatherings like movie nights, and those who want to, tend to the gardens or take walks along the paths. Everyone can use the beauty salon and barbershop or join in at the multi-purpose arts room, and folks who like animals can keep small pets like dogs, cats, birds, or fish if approved. The spiritual side gets attention too, with a chapel, meditation room, and spiritual care as part of the program, plus community events and resident-run activities.
Benedictine Villa Assisted Living has a full range of care options, including assisted living and memory care for people in early or late stages of memory loss, as well as skilled nursing and short-term rehabilitation for those needing recovery after surgery or illness. The respite care program welcomes short stays of two weeks up to two months for those who need winter safety, extra care after a hospital stay, or just a break for family caregivers-meals, housekeeping, and care all included. The setting encourages independence whenever possible while making sure support is always available, and there's an emphasis on kindness and truly listening to each resident's needs. Residents can expect a mix of health care, personal assistance, and community involvement, and given the long history and commitment to well-being, Benedictine Villa tries to help everyone feel at home with the right balance of independence, companionship, and care.
