Today's skilled nursing at communities like Lutheran Home offers a vibrant, person-centered approach to care that prioritizes dignity, independence and quality of life, with food playing a transformational role in this evolution.
While many communities have had to close their skilled nursing services due to new regulations, Lutheran Home continues to offer this essential need for the Arlington Heights community. And, unlike the isolated nursing homes of the past, Lutheran Home emphasizes community integration. Family involvement is encouraged and regular events are hosted that bring residents, families and community members together.
“At Lutheran Home, we've reimagined skilled nursing to focus on empowering our residents,” says Jennifer Darnell, Vice President of Marketing.“Our goal is to support independence while providing necessary care, creating an environment where older adults can thrive, not just reside.” Lutheran.
