Benedictine Care Community: Care Violations Found - MN

Benedictine Care Community: Care Violations Found - MN
Healthcare Facility
Benedictine Care Community
Ada, MN  ·  1/5 stars

The inspection, completed August 21, 2025, was triggered by a complaint rather than a routine survey cycle. That distinction matters. Complaint inspections begin with someone, usually a resident, a family member, or a staff member, deciding that something was wrong enough to report.

Inspectors cited the facility under tag F0558. The violation was classified at a level of minimal harm or potential for actual harm, the lower end of the federal harm scale, and affected few residents.

The inspection report as released does not detail the specific conduct that led to the citation. What it records is the outcome: a deficiency was found, harm was assessed, and a plan of correction was required.

Benedictine Care Community is part of the Benedictine Health System, a network of Catholic-sponsored senior care facilities operating across the upper Midwest. The Ada location serves a small community in Norman County in northwestern Minnesota, a region where nursing home options are limited and the facilities that exist carry significant weight for families who have few alternatives nearby.

When a complaint inspection ends in a citation, even one classified at the lower end of the harm scale, it reflects something that inspectors concluded was not being done correctly at the time someone decided to call.

The plan of correction, which facilities are required to submit in response to cited deficiencies, was not included in the released portion of the report. Families seeking that information can contact the facility directly or reach the Minnesota Department of Health's Office of Health Facility Complaints.

Editorial Standards & Data Disclosure

Data source: This article is based on inspection data downloaded directly from the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) via Medicare.gov. CMS releases inspection reports in bulk; we publish the findings as documented by state surveyors in the official Form CMS-2567 Statement of Deficiencies.

Plan of correction: The CMS report we receive does not include the facility's plan of correction. Facilities submit plans of correction separately to state survey agencies and those responses may not be reflected in CMS data at the time of publication. The absence of a plan of correction in our data does not mean one was not filed. Readers who want information about corrective steps taken are encouraged to contact the facility directly or their state survey agency.

Corrections may have occurred: Inspection reports reflect conditions observed on the date of the survey. Facilities may have implemented corrections, staffing changes, additional training, or other remediation since the report was issued. We report what CMS provides and encourage readers to seek current information from the facility.

Editorial process: Inspection findings are extracted from CMS source documents and synthesized using AI, reviewed for factual accuracy against the original report by our editorial team.

Corrections: We strive for accuracy in everything we publish. If you believe any fact in this article is incorrect, please contact us with details, and we will review and correct it promptly.
