Prairieview Lutheran Home sits on 9 acres of rolling farmland at 403 N 4th St, Danforth, and stands as a faith-based Lutheran community that welcomes older folks into a Christian residential care center, with daily inter-denominational spiritual care. The place has 48 private and 6 semi-private skilled nursing rooms for both men and women, so some folks like the quiet of their own space, while others may share with a roommate. Residents get personal attention from a team that includes licensed practical nurses, registered nurses, certified nursing assistants, and trained volunteers who work to know each resident, offering help with daily tasks like eating, bathing, dressing, and toileting. There's 24-hour supervision and support for medication management and mobility, and special diets for allergies or diabetes can be handled by the kitchen, which prepares meals for the dining room where everyone can eat together if they'd like, and there's also Select Dining choices for all three meals a day, along with snacks.
You'll find furnished rooms and garden areas, a game room for friendly competitions, movie nights for entertainment, and regular community activities, including fitness classes and outings, all designed to keep people active and social. Safety is important, so there's an emergency alert system, wide walkways, and wheelchair access. Housekeeping and laundry are provided, including commercial washing and folding, plus daily cleaning and apartment maintenance, while outside, lawn care and general repairs are taken care of by the staff. There's a hair care service, cable TV, and internet, and the whole place is pet-friendly as long as you follow the rules, so folks can keep a beloved animal companion if they meet the guidelines.
Prairieview Lutheran Home offers skilled nursing, assisted living, independent living, memory care, and is considered a continuing care retirement community, supporting both short-term and long-term needs. The Rehab to Home program is available with licensed therapists for people who need physical therapy, whether they live there or just visit. Social services and individualized care plans help match what residents require to what's available, and the caring staff and volunteers offer one-on-one attention as needed. Meals are customized for those with special diets, and there are always reliable options to pick from. While the facility isn't accredited by any official group and doesn't provide telehealth, it does offer a consistent level of trained, in-person support and community activities, keeping life active but also safe and comfortable for folks as they grow older in their own way.
