My Mom loves living at the Benedictine in Northfield. She says everyone in all departments (including aides, nurses, bldg maintenance, housekeeping, food service, admin office, entertainment & spiritual) treat her respectfully as if she were part of their families. She also loves the meals, says she never goes to bed hungry. I love visiting her on Movie Day & we watch together. I am relieved to know my Mom is in a safe, loving & warm environment.

So so blessed and thankful for Benedictine! Every person that we meet when visiting our family there is so kind and compassionate! You all feel like family to us :)
Great place to live. We are currently independent living, but it is nice to know we can stay in our apartment and add assisted living services when we need them. The staff is wonderful.
I was at this community this week. My experience was delightful! I was greeted at the main entrance by two happy residents. The staff led me to the memory care unit. It was almost breakfast time. I was moved to see the joy of the residents. Three women sat at a table joyfully singing Christian hymns while other residents listened with smiles on their faces. The atmosphere was bright and cheerful! The staff preparing the residents for breakfast were very kind and uplifting. I’ve been in many memory care units and this one impressed me. Thank you for taking care of your residents so gracefully.
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ As the rain lightly tap-danced on my car's roof, I turned into the driveway of Benedictine Living Community Northfield. The droplets seemed to orchestrate a melody of comfort and calm as they struck the pavement. The building ahead of me stood, clad in hues of blue, gray, and white, like a cozy lighthouse on this rainy October morning. "You're almost home," the atmosphere seemed to murmur, and I felt it in my bones. As I stepped through the entrance, I was immediately enveloped in the homey aroma of freshly brewed coffee, which mingled perfectly with the subtle background noise of laughter and heartwarming conversations. Gone was any preconceived notion of sterile, institutional senior living. No, this felt like the home of a Grandma who knows her way around an Etsy shop. But let's get to the WOW factor: Kernal. Ah, Kernal, a beacon on a foggy day. His warm smile and earnest demeanor felt like the human equivalent of a sunbeam breaking through an overcast sky. And his wisdom? Boundless. The man radiates a care-first philosophy, and you'll feel it the instant he says hello. As Kernal led me through the immaculate corridors and plush spaces—each designed with unmistakable attention to detail—he filled the rainy morning air with stories of the residents that make up this unique community. It was like being tuned into a feel-good podcast, except I was living it in real-time. Our journey even included a quick pitstop at the scrumptious-looking dining area that smelled as good as a home-cooked meal. Just like that, our tour was over. I was back at the entrance, now holding a steaming cup of that mood-lifting coffee. Kernal reassured me, "This isn't just where you live; it's where you want to be. It’s easy to call this place home." And as he spoke, every drop of stress that comes with finding a new place to call home seemed to evaporate, as if kissed away by the October sun that finally broke through the rain clouds. So, pull out your calendars and pencil in a visit. Benedictine Living Community isn't just another pitstop on the road of life; it’s a scenic overlook of pure Minnesotan bliss. And if the stars align, you'll meet Kernal—the embodiment of a steaming chai latte on a chilly, rainy morning. Five stars? Absolutely, and I'd add an umbrella for good measure! 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟☔ Benedictine Associate
