Benedictine Living Community-Red Wing sits in Red Wing, Minnesota, and offers a full range of care for seniors, including assisted living, independent living, skilled nursing, rehabilitation, memory care for those with Alzheimer's or other dementia, hospice, home care, and respite care-all on one campus. The staff includes Registered Nurses, Licensed Practical Nurses, Nursing Assistants, Resident Assistants, Maintenance Technicians, Housekeepers, and support staff like a Mayo Clinic MD who visits weekly and geriatric nurse practitioners, all working together to meet many different care needs, from short-term recovery to long-term support or end-of-life services.
Veterans receive specialized care, and residents with health needs ranging from arthritis or stroke to hip and knee replacement, spinal cord injury, and more, including bariatric care up to 350 pounds, can find help here as well. All apartments are comfortable and safe, with options like one-bedroom or two-bedroom layouts, full kitchens or kitchenettes, full baths or showers, plenty of closet space, and temperature control, and residents can furnish and decorate their spaces as they like, which goes a long way toward feeling at home, and there's pet-friendly options for dogs, cats, birds, and fish through a Pet Admissions Program, so furry or feathered friends can stay too.
The facility provides nutritious meal services, with a "5 meal plan" as an option, and offers both weekly housekeeping and laundry, plus help with things like mobility, bathing, dressing, and medication management. Residents have access to spiritual care, life enrichment programs, Bible activities, bingo, crafts, and social get-togethers in comfy lounge areas. Common spaces, gardens, and outdoor grounds create spots where residents and families can connect, and scheduled transportation helps with appointments, outings, and local errands.
Memory care residents live in secure areas designed to reduce wandering and confusion, and receive care and therapies set up for dementia needs, while assisted living residents get help with daily tasks, medication reminders, and meal prep, and independent living residents enjoy worry-free social living with extra support if needed, so there's something for every stage of aging here. Room pricing matches the variety of care types, and the Elderly Waiver program makes options more affordable for those who qualify, though there are also luxury choices for private pay.
Specialized programs support health and wellness, with 24-hour on-site nursing care, personalized care plans, weekly MD visits, and wellness and rehabilitation programs to help seniors recover from illness, injury, or surgery. The facility has awards for care, friendliness, dining, and activities, and it undergoes reviews twice a year for licensing and accreditation, so quality and safety stay a big focus.
Benedictine Living Community-Red Wing is faith-based, and aims to support health, wellness, and choice for every resident by encouraging connections with family and neighbors, offering both on-site and community activities, and keeping the environment clean, welcoming, and home-like. Tours include a look at daily life, apartments, dining, and activities, and the team welcomes open communication with both residents and families. Among Red Wing's senior care choices, this is the only place providing a full continuum of care and support in one spot for elders with a wide range of needs, and it's kept a strong reputation in the community for its commitment to resident well-being and quality of life.
