Located in the heart of beautiful northern Minnesota, where visitors are greeted by majestic pine trees by day and the northern lights by night. This quiet country setting in the town of Blackduck provides a wonderful atmosphere for physical and spiritual healing. Our premiere senior community offers exceptional apartment living for individuals 55 and older.
Our friendly, professional staff is dedicated to enhancing your life, bringing you joy and creating opportunities that care for your whole person - body, mind and spirit.
Whether you’re retiring, empty nest downsizing, or desire a more maintenance-free lifestyle, the Good Samaritan Society offers a variety of independent living options in our communities that can also help if your health or personal needs change in the future.
While the types of living structures vary by community, our independent living options include multi-unit apartment buildings, as well as twin-homes or duplexes, casitas, cottages, and villas. Each living unit is yours to decorate and furnish as you want, so you can enjoy all the comforts of home without the stress of having to deal with repairs and maintenance.
As we age, day-to-day activities can become more challenging. With Good Samaritan Society assisted living, our staff is available to lend aid as needed, ranging from simple reminders to help with dressing, bathing, and other essential activities. Our assisted living communities offer residents the independence they want with the support they need.
Residents live in apartments or residential units and don’t require around-the-clock nursing supervision. However, staff members are accessible 24 hours a day.

Inpatient rehab services are for people of all ages who no longer need hospital care, but would benefit from additional therapy and care before returning home following injury, illness or surgery. This therapy can be a critical step to help you transition from the hospital to your home as safely as possible.
Our Medicare-certified inpatient rehab programs feature therapy gyms and include physical and occupational therapy and speech-language pathology.
The Good Samaritan Society is dedicated to your successful recovery, whether you’re living in one of our communities or visiting an outpatient program. Our outpatient rehab therapy provides therapeutic intervention to people of all ages following surgery, illness, or injury when hospitalization or 24-hour nursing care is not required. And best of all, your rehab therapy team will tailor our services to your individual needs, with the motivation and encouragement you need to help you recover as quickly and safely as possible.
Respite care services offer around-the-clock assistance during a short-term stay, which typically lasts more than 24 hours, but less than two weeks.
Caregivers often turn to respite care if they're unable, for a short time, to provide the 24-hour supervision their loved one requires. Respite stays are also sometimes used as trial runs before making the decision to move to a care center full-time.
Respite care usually includes all the same services available to long-term residents at that location, such as 24-hour care, meals, social activities and housekeeping.
