Pines Village in Whiting provides assisted-living care that centers on consistent clinical oversight. Licensed nurses are on site or on call at all times to oversee medication administration, monitor chronic conditions, and coordinate care plans with each resident’s physicians. Staff members assist with blood-pressure checks, glucose monitoring, and other routine health assessments, and a 24-hour emergency response system is in place for urgent medical needs.
Beyond direct clinical services, the community supports residents with daily personal-care tasks such as bathing, dressing, ambulation, and incontinence care. Physical, occupational, and speech therapy can be arranged on site, and scheduled transportation is available for off-site medical appointments. Regular wellness reviews, fall-prevention programs, and health-education sessions help residents maintain as much independence as possible.
Accommodations include studio and one-bedroom apartments equipped with bathroom safety bars, emergency call systems, climate control, and basic cable. Some units offer kitchenettes or private patios, but not all apartments include every feature. Housekeeping, laundry, and maintenance services are provided on a routine schedule, and staff perform safety checks to ensure living spaces remain free of hazards.
Residents receive three meals daily in a communal dining room, with menus planned by dietitians who can modify entrées for diabetic, low-sodium, or other physician-ordered diets. Snacks and beverages are available throughout the day, and room service can be arranged for those recovering from illness or preferring to dine privately. Family members may purchase guest meals, and staff periodically solicit resident feedback to adjust meal options and improve the dining experience.
