We never got to see my parents at St. Benedict's Senior Community because they're locked down, no visitors. But they were treated so well. We brought clothes to them but you could only get to the front door and the staff took it from there. They're locked down due to COVID so we weren't able to see them. The place was beautiful, and my other grandma lived there too so I'm very impressed with St. Ben's. The prison is just right down the street from there, they look out the window and they can see that. They weren't allowed to do anything because of the COVID, and they weren't even able to see each other, so there were no activities. It's a whole community, they've got a nursing home, assisted living apartments, independent living apartments, and it has beautiful grounds. The COVID unit that they're in was sub-acute, it's part of the nursing home but it's also a branch of the hospital. So it's like they're getting hospital care. They were so good to them. My mom did not have complaints with the food.

Benedict Court is an open, caring community with friendly and helpful staff. I volunteered and was paired with a resident, and we took advantage of all the facility had to offer, which included bingo, a recital hall, and a garden outside. The rooms are clean and spacious. As a volunteer, I felt rushed from the staff, as we had things to get done in the time allotted, but they were courteous to the residents' needs as well as mine. I also played in a band and at a recital in the facility, which had tons of tables and was well-outfitted for large groups of people to sit and watch performances. The food was average; it was what is to be expected from large-scale food production. They have a church available for prayer and Mass. I never saw a back-up at the resident help desk, and they never seemed to be understaffed. The residents got help when they needed it, but they were left to their own devices if that's what they preferred.
