Healthcare
As more and more of our population approaches retirement age, considering our options for lifestyles, housing needs and health concerns becomes of ever increasing importance. We want comfort…we want security…we want competent and convenient health services…and most of all, we want to feel at home.
Whether you’re coming home or you’re staying home, you’ll soon find that Richland County has excellent senior housing and services available here. Making life better for those they serve and for their families, Pine Valley Healthcare and Rehabilitation Center and Schmitt Woodland Hills are two of the choices for optimum senior living in Southwest Wisconsin. Both offer wonderful retirement living, and when assistance is necessary they provide safe and secure care for beloved family members in skilled nursing facilities.
Aging gracefully isn’t a catchphrase…it’s what most of us aspire to! Schmitt and Pine Valley recognize that and have learned that one way to stay young and active is to help people share their talents and time with others through volunteer opportunities. Volunteering can be sharing time with others…it can be contributing to a musical activity, or it might be a one-on-one visit to read to someone. Helping to make the community a better place through volunteering and sharing time with others is cherished by senior residents who have so much to give and feel blessed for the opportunity.
Working in long-term care has special rewards for some…seeing that smile when you enter a room or feeling that little squeeze on your hand and a knowing look that says “thanks for all your help” are enough to touch anyone’s heart. In a friendly community like Richland Center, someone on staff at one of the senior facilities often finds himself or herself caring for a friend, relative or neighbor. They develop lasting bonds, and the residents develop trust in their caregiver. This contributes to the sense of community and neighbors helping neighbors. It’s more than just a job—it’s an avocation.
