Offered to Prairie View Lodge Independent Living Suite Tenants
Prairie View Lodge (PVL) Board of Directors is excited to offer additional Assisted Living Services to those tenants living in the Prairie View Lodge Independent Living Suites. While there is always the option to obtain meals from the kitchen at present, we have had requests to add even more additional services.
The Prairie View Lodge Assisted Living Program will include 2 meals a day and snacks, weekly light housekeeping and laundry services. This package has been offered as an option to everyone who is currently a tenant, as well as to all new tenants. If a tenant declines the package and finds at a later time that they would like to take advantage of the services, they can sign up at any time. The cost of the package would then be added to their suite rent. The service is designed to provide the services so that our tenants can “Age in Place”; remaining in their home comfortably.
As is currently the practice, there are no personal care services provided to the Independent Living Suite tenants by the Prairie View Lodge staff; however there are some social opportunities. The Tenant Wellness Coordinator works three days a week and offers programs including games, coffee gatherings, exercise groups and 1 on 1 visits. There is also a variety of other entertainment as well as the weekly Church Services held at Prairie View Lodge.
If you have inquiries or would like to apply for a suite of the Assisted Living Package, please contact the Personal Care Home Business office or call (204) 825 – 2246 Ext. 0 or (204) 873 – 2132.
