Pittsfield Manor

Pittsfield Manor sits at 610 Lowry St in Pittsfield, IL, and you'll find a mix of assisted living, skilled nursing, memory care under Memory Lane for the Mind, and the Bounce Back Rehabilitation Program here, plus hospice and respite care if needed, and the place belongs to Liberty Village of Pittsfield and is managed by Udi #9, LLC, with ties to Unlimited Development, Inc., and this isn't a part of a hospital or a continuing care retirement community, so it stands on its own, and you get a choice of private or companion suites, all with telephones, furnished rooms, and free Wi-Fi and television, with emergency alert systems in place. There's assistance for daily activities like bathing, dressing, and moving, medication management, outpatient therapy, a medical director, and staff includes 24-hour licensed nurses and CNAs with a total nursing level of 3.99 hours per resident per day, with a nurse turnover rate of 44.2%, a bit less than the state average, and you can connect with healthcare providers through the facility's own services, though telehealth isn't offered. The place offers 89 certified beds and usually has about 78 to 83 residents-a 93% occupancy rate-and folks staying there get access to laundry, dry cleaning, housekeeping, and move-in coordination, plus a barbershop and salon, and meals are served all day in a dining room that caters to allergies and diabetes, with a Geriatric Nutritional Program provided and access to home-cooked restaurant-style meals. Residents find different ways to stay busy, like AJ's Fitness Center for movement, an arts room, movie nights, garden and walking paths, resident-run activities, and community events, and there's a community garden, beverage area, social spaces, and resident and family councils for a bit of say in things. The Bounce Back Program helps with rehabilitation, and the facility works with both Medicare and Medicaid, with non-ambulatory care and memory support as needed. Staff check on residents' safety with 24-hour supervision and call systems, and procedures are in place to keep everyone informed about health changes or injuries, though there've been some challenges: the nursing home's inspectors have reported 48 deficiencies, including issues with medication storage (F0761), food sourcing and handling (F0812), the treatment and care of residents according to personal goals (F0684), some infection-related mistakes, and needing to improve care planning, proper catheter use, and hiring only staff with clean records, and making sure the environment's safe from accidents. The whole building has sprinklers. Pittsfield Manor says its goal's to give good care and comfort, and it's not perfect, but it tries to meet folks' needs and encourages staying active and engaged, and the housekeepers, nurses, and aides all play a role in day-to-day life, with several checks and programs aimed at improving how residents experience the place.
