This week, Feb. 2–6, we celebrate Pride in Foodservice Week and the amazing culinary services staff who nourish our communities and elevate the dining experience. We’re grateful for all you do!

February is American Heart Month—a perfect time for adults, especially those 55 and older, to take charge of their heart health. Small, meaningful changes like moving more, eating nourishing foods, managing stress, and partnering with your health care provider can make a big difference. A healthier heart means more energy for the moments and people you love. ❤️

Celebrating National Activity Professionals Week!
This week, we honor the incredible activity professionals who go Beyond the Ordinary every day to enrich the lives of those living in Benedictine Communities.
Activity professionals do so much more than plan events—they create meaningful experiences that enhance physical, cognitive and emotional well-being. From art and music to games and social gatherings, they ensure every individual feels engaged, valued and connected. Thank you for your dedication to improving quality of life and bringing joy to every moment!

We’re excited to share some news here at Benedictine Living Community-Shakopee Windermere Way! We’ve partnered with Patriot Angels to help our veteran residents and their spouses access the VA Aid and Attendance benefits they’ve earned.

These benefits can provide crucial financial help for assisted living and personal care. But the application process can be confusing, so Patriot Angels is stepping in to walk families through the claim process step-by-step.

This partnership is more than paperwork — it’s about honoring the lives and legacies of those who served.
