Pleasant View in Manheim, PA offers Assisted Living, Independent Living, and Memory Care under one roof, allowing residents to move between service levels if their needs change. The Memory Care program is structured to support residents with early to advanced dementia, using secure spaces and care plans that address cognition, behavior, and daily structure.
Clinical oversight is provided by RNs and LPNs around the clock, with a nurse on-site 24 hours a day and pull-cord alert systems in resident rooms. Staff are trained to manage wandering in the morning or evening, elopement risk, wound care, specialized diets, and all forms of diabetes management, including sliding-scale insulin. Full assistance is available for bathing, dressing, eating, and toileting, and caregivers perform one-person or two-person transfers as well as supervision for walkers and wheelchairs. A dedicated therapy room supports ongoing rehabilitation and restorative therapies, while background-checked staff and continuous security coverage help maintain safety.
Apartments can include a private bathroom, basic furnishings, cable connection, regular housekeeping, and scheduled laundry services, though not every unit is equipped with every feature. Maintenance takes care of routine repairs, and emergency response systems tie directly into the nursing station.
Meals are served three times a day in communal dining rooms, offering both set menus and made-to-order options. Snacks are available between meals, and the culinary team modifies textures or liquids for mechanical soft, chopped, puréed, or thickened diets. Special dietary plans are coordinated with nursing to accommodate medical requirements such as diabetic or low-salt needs.
Residents have access to on-site parking, wheelchair-accessible common areas, a barber and beauty shop, fitness and wellness centers, internet connectivity, library, pool, and religious services. Scheduled transportation is available for medical appointments and local errands.
