Overview of Benedictine Living Community-Bismarck
Benedictine Living Community-Bismarck is a 56-bed skilled nursing facility at 4580 Coleman Street in Bismarck, Burleigh County, North Dakota, operated by St. Gabriel’s Community Skille as a voluntary nonprofit. The community has maintained operations for 41 years and holds a 5-star CMS overall rating paired with a 5-star health inspection score, translating to 32% fewer regulatory deficiencies than typical North Dakota nursing homes across the past three years.
Over three annual inspections, the facility recorded 12 moderate citations; no critical or serious violations, zero fines, and no enforcement actions or substantiated complaints.
That clean record masks an underlying pattern: recurring compliance failures in documentation accuracy, medication protocols, infection control practice, and resident supervision. Deficiencies involved MDS coding errors, insulin administration gaps, barrier-precaution lapses, elopement risk assessment failures, and medication transcription discrepancies. The issues are procedural, not catastrophic, but persistent.
Staffing presents contrasts. Registered nurse hours run 1 hour 7 minutes per resident per day; roughly 22% above the North Dakota average, and the facility maintains a 2.16:1 staff-to-resident ratio, 12% better than state average. Total nursing care hours, though, average 4 hours 23 minutes per resident per day, placing the facility in the lower tier statewide at rank 20 of 25. Physical therapy is a genuine strength: 11 minutes per resident per day, 450% above state average, supported by four PT assistants in a rehabilitation-focused model.
The occupancy rate sits at 98.6%, among the highest in North Dakota and signaling sustained demand. The payer mix is 47% Medicare admissions with typical 1-month stays, which confirms a short-stay rehabilitation orientation. Long-stay quality measures, however, show functional decline 16% worse than state average, indicating structural constraints in supporting residents through progressive illness.
Benedictine Living Community-Bismarck suits short-term Medicare rehabilitation stays with robust physical therapy support and financial stability.
For families considering long-term placement of residents with advancing dementia or functional decline, the facility’s quality-measure profile warrants careful attention.

Frequently Asked Questions about Assisted Living in Bismarck, ND
What's the difference between assisted living and memory care in North Dakota?
Assisted living in North Dakota supports residents with daily activities (bathing, dressing, medication management) while preserving independence. Memory care is a specialized form of assisted living for residents living with Alzheimer's or dementia, and adds 24/7 secured environments, dementia-trained staff, and structured routines designed to reduce confusion and wandering.
What's the difference between assisted living and a nursing home in North Dakota?
Assisted living in North Dakota is a residential model focused on housing, hospitality, and help with daily activities. Nursing homes (skilled nursing facilities) provide 24/7 medical care from licensed nurses for residents with significant health needs, and are regulated more strictly under both state and federal CMS rules.
Does North Dakota Medicaid cover assisted living?
North Dakota Medicaid does not directly pay room-and-board for assisted living, but most states (including North Dakota) offer Home and Community-Based Services (HCBS) waivers that can offset the cost of care services delivered inside a licensed community. Eligibility, waitlists, and covered services vary — check directly with the state Medicaid agency.
What is assisted living?
Assisted living combines private or semi-private apartments with help on activities of daily living (meals, bathing, dressing, medication management) and a social calendar — for residents who need some support but do not need 24/7 medical care.
How many assisted living facilities are listed on this page?
This page features 14 assisted living facilities in Bismarck, ND. Use the filters and comparison tools above to compare ratings, amenities, and pricing.
How do I choose the right assisted living facility in Bismarck, ND?
Start by matching the level of care offered to the resident's current and anticipated needs, then compare licensing status, staff-to-resident ratios, recent inspection results, and pricing. Tour at least two or three communities in Bismarck, ND, talk to current residents and families, and confirm what is included in the base rate versus billed as add-on services.
What should I look for when visiting assisted living facilities in Bismarck, ND?
Pay attention to staff interactions with residents, cleanliness and odor, food quality at meal times, the activity calendar, and how questions about pricing and care plans are answered. Ask to see the most recent state inspection report, the move-out / level-of-care-change policy, and a sample monthly bill that lists every fee.
