Lafayette Manor, Inc. in Uniontown, Pennsylvania is licensed as a nursing home and delivers around-the-clock skilled nursing care. Registered nurses, licensed practical nurses, and certified nursing assistants monitor residents’ health status, administer medications, and follow physician-directed treatment plans. Short-stay respite care is available for families who need temporary relief from caregiving, giving residents access to the same clinical resources and supervision provided to long-term residents.
In addition to routine medical monitoring, the clinical team coordinates therapies such as physical, occupational, and speech rehabilitation when prescribed. Wound care, IV therapy, pain management, and post-surgical recovery programs are managed on site, and care plans are reviewed regularly with physicians and family members. Transportation for off-site dialysis or specialist appointments can be arranged, and the facility maintains relationships with local hospitals to ensure prompt transfers when higher levels of care are necessary.
Accommodations range from private to shared rooms, each furnished with basic bedroom furniture, an accessible bathroom, and emergency call systems. Some rooms include features like in-room climate controls and television service, but not all accommodations have all the features, so prospective residents should verify availability during a tour. Routine housekeeping and laundry services are provided, and maintenance staff handle repairs.
Meals are prepared three times daily in the main kitchen and served in a communal dining room that is designed for wheelchair accessibility. The dietary department develops menus that meet nutritional guidelines and can adjust for physician-ordered restrictions such as low-sodium, diabetic, or pureed diets. Snacks and beverages are available between meals, and residents who are unable to eat in the dining room receive tray service in their rooms.
Residents have access to an activity center that hosts scheduled programs such as exercise classes, crafts, and social events. These activities are supervised by staff members who adapt participation to individual abilities and medical requirements.
