I parked up close to the building and I the skinny maintenance guy told me that I had to move my car because they have lots of people coming. I moved my vehicle. I was there for only 15 minutes and when I came out there was only 6 cars in the lot. He was rude and a jerk

This place does a fantastic job. Going above and beyond what I’d expect the normal job of a nursing home facility. Trina, Lacey, Dana, Katie- all awesome. The residents I’ve met have been amazing people too. Benedictine has done a wonderful job with my father.

My experience started in July 2025 following two emergency surgeries that took half if my small intestines but saved my life. I was in a coma for most of my first week in the hospital. And following my intensive hospital stay I needed a facility for rehab before going home. We chose Benedictine Living in Owatonna. We were new to the facility and knew nothing about it. From first entering the facility upon arrival we felt welcomed and at home. The staff were more like family and became friends. I had excellent care and the best therapy team I could ask for. I actually miss everyone after being discharged. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!!

I had a wonderful experience at Benedictine with Lisa Kern, their Director. I shared stories of the many ways that the staff at Benedictine assist our loved ones not just through their daily duties but their uplifting smiles and conversations. I am thankful for their commitment to keeping our loved ones cheerful and ready to face another great day at Benedictine.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Once upon a time in the heart of Owatonna, as the winter winds began to whisper tales of snowflakes, I found myself stepping into a place that would warm my heart more than any holiday hearth. Benedictine Living Community-Owatonna, formerly known as Koda Living Community, beckoned, and little did I know that this visit would unfold like a heartwarming story. As I pushed open the door, I was immediately enveloped by the cozy embrace of twinkling lights and the sweet melodies of carols that filled the air. It was as if I had stepped into a holiday wonderland. The holiday season has a unique way of revealing our deepest heartfelt concerns, especially when it comes to the well-being of our loved ones. It's during these chilly months that we often realize just how much care our cherished family members truly need—care that we, no matter how well-intentioned, can't always provide ourselves. Many of us tend to put off exploring senior care and living options until after the hustle and bustle of the holidays. But what I discovered at Benedictine was truly heartwarming. Visiting during this festive season can bring immeasurable joy to our beloved seniors. The entire community was adorned with beautiful decorations, from the large Christmas tree in the foyer to the cozy common areas. It was a sight to behold, and the smiles on the residents' faces told a story of their own—a story of warmth, comfort, and togetherness. What sets Benedictine Senior Living Community apart is its commitment to modern long-term skilled nursing, centered around the principles of wellness, quality of life, and helping residents remain as independent as possible. These are not just words; they are the guiding light of this remarkable place. I couldn't help but be moved by the genuine care and dedication of the staff. They weren't just caretakers; they were storytellers, weaving tales of joy and companionship for the residents. In a world where the holiday season can sometimes feel rushed and commercialized, Benedictine's holiday spirit felt like a cozy blanket of love. It reminded me that there is a place where our loved ones can find the care, comfort, and community they deserve, especially during this magical time of year. So, if you find yourself at that crossroads of senior care decisions during the holidays, don't hesitate to step into Benedictine Living Community-Owatonna, formerly known as Koda Living Community. You might just find that the most heartwarming stories are the ones written together, surrounded by twinkling lights, laughter, and the warmth of a caring community. Benedictine Associate
