What Benedictine Living Community-Dickinson offers could be categorized as simply senior living, but we see it as a bigger picture. With a history that stretches back to 1946, our community has played a critical role in caring for generations of Dickinson, ND, seniors. We’ve of course experienced transitions during that span. However, the spirit in which we serve has always remained the same.
Since 1989, local families have known us as St. Benedictine’s Health Center — a proud member of the Benedictine family. Today, as Benedictine Living Community-Dickinson, the core values of our mission-driven, faith-based organization still guide our approach to senior living in a way that is immediately apparent to anyone who walks through our doors.
While the formation of our faith-based senior living community is rooted in Catholic tradition, we’re committed to providing people of any denomination with a true sense of belonging. And thanks to the ongoing support of our foundation, we remain focused on continual improvement to our campus to ensure the quality of life we offer exceeds your expectations.
When the effects of aging or chronic illness make daily living activities a challenge and threaten to diminish independence, assisted living at Benedictine Living Community-Dickinson can help. Our teams provide respectful, dignified care based on individual needs and preferences, with the goal of empowering each resident’s maximum level of independence.
On top of that, our professional staff of nurses and other qualified caregivers provides personalized services ranging from light daily tasks to assistance with mobility, dressing, bathing and grooming.
Medication management and medical assistance are available, as are spiritual care, recreational and social activities, and transportation. With assisted living at Benedictine, you can continue to enjoy independence while also giving yourself and your family the priceless gift of peace of mind.
When chronic health issues, long-term illness or a prolonged recovery diminishes an individual’s functional capacity for daily living, care in a skilled nursing facility is often the best option.
While some people still hold outdated notions of what a skilled nursing home is, the goals of our modern long-term skilled nursing facility are wellness, quality of life, and helping residents remain as independent as possible.
In our Dickinson, ND, community, long-term care for seniors helps many people maintain a satisfying quality of life. Residents engage in social and recreational activities, pursue hobbies and interests, and receive personalized care and attention. Some people even realize cognitive improvement thanks to the social stimulation, exercise, good nutrition and proper medication management our experienced senior health care team provides.
When surgery, illness or injury keeps you from doing the things you enjoy, the senior rehabilitation services of Benedictine Living Community-Dickinson can set you on a successful path to recovery. Our inpatient short-term senior care and rehabilitation services help individuals recovering from hospital stays for complex medical issues such as stroke, injury or even elective surgeries who need 24-hour care in a fully equipped senior rehabilitation center.
For those who are recovering from surgery or injury and are able to live at home, we also offer outpatient therapy sessions in our Dickinson, ND, senior rehabilitation center.
In either case, the goal of our professional, caring staff is to help the individual recover independence, move confidently, communicate effectively, and manage activities of daily life with little to no assistance.
