At Spang Crest Manor, we believe the sun does shine brighter on us. Our rich history of providing seniors with quality care and a dignified lifestyle started with a charitable gift – when Amelia Spang Strickler first bequeathed Spang Crest to the Ministerium of Pennsylvania. Today our services include skilled nursing, rehabilitation and assisted living for those with memory challenges thanks to a charitable gift from Willis R. and Helen M. Christman.
We’ve been blessed with generosity over the years. Each act of charity helps us to reach out to more and more seniors and families throughout our area. It’s these acts of kindness and our wonderful residents and staff that makes us believe that the sun does shine brighter at Spang Crest Manor.
Skilled Nursing & Rehabilitation at Spang Crest Manor
The decision to place a loved one into a skilled nursing care center can be one of the hardest decisions a family may ever have to make. There is emotional stress in deciding what’s best, making the decision to seek long-term care and to find a quality, trustworthy center.
At Spang Crest, we understand such concerns. We are dedicated to helping guide families through the admission process and making the transition as smooth and comfortable as possible. Whether it’s short-term rehabilitation or long-term residency that is required, our services include:
- Short-term and postoperative rehabilitation
- Physical, occupational, speech and respiratory therapies
- 24-hour skilled nursing care
- Alzheimer’s and memory care
Led by a resident’s own doctor, with support from our medical director, our multidisciplinary caregiving team consists of nurses and certified nursing assistants. Family participation in a resident’s care is not only welcomed, it’s encouraged.
Our home-like surroundings are complemented by amenities including personal laundry and housekeeping services, as well as beauty and barber services. Whether it’s bible study, bingo or an art project, our full-time activities director makes sure there is always something enriching and fun for residents to do.
One daily rate includes skilled nursing care, laundry, meals, room and board, and much more.
Memory Support Assisted Living
Alzheimer’s affects not only the individual, but also the whole family. Until a cure is found, there is a growing need for excellent care. Our secure 18-bed Christman Memory Center brings dignity and comfort to those with early-stage memory loss and peace of mind to their families.
Our community features pleasant sights, sounds and aromas to create an atmosphere that feels like home. The design provides cues and gentle reminders of the day’s activities that maximize independence in a separate, safe and protected environment.
Our program involves residents in enjoyable, stimulating activities. Individual life skills like gardening and baking are incorporated into each day in a fun and meaningful way. Daily enrichment programs provide the opportunity to enhance emotional and spiritual wellness, as well as improve health and overall life satisfaction. Individual and group programs build on lifelong interests or creative self-expression.
Our memory support program includes:
- Daily assistance with personal care needs and medication administration
- Well-trained and dedicated staff 24 hours a day
- Three delicious, healthy meals a day, frequent hydration and snacks
- Individualized attention to health concerns
- Frequent opportunities for outdoor experiences in our enclosed courtyard and sensory garden
- Housekeeping, personal laundry and linen services
- Choice of a private or companion suite in a specially designed, secure area
What sets our memory care program apart is the way we get to know each resident’s individual life story. We become intimately involved with his or her family. This helps us appreciate and validate each resident as the unique, special and valuable individuals he or she is. It also allows us to create personalized support plans that help us recognize existing abilities and support diminishing skills.
