Grand Manor sits on Frank Scott Parkway East in Swansea, Illinois, and you'll find it's one of those places where a person can choose between semi-private quarters, studio apartments, or one-bedroom suites, with apartments offering kitchenettes and bathrooms that have zero-entry walk-in and wheelchair-friendly showers, and you'll see cats and dogs are allowed since the pet policy welcomes both, plus there's room for resident parking and enough open space outside with garden, courtyard, and safe walking paths if someone wants to get some fresh air or just stroll. Folks here can get help tailored to what they need-assisted living, independent living services, nursing home, or memory care for those with special circumstances, plus home health service, and there's regular health monitoring, help with moving around, specialized programs when needed, and physical therapy on-site, while you'll notice reminders for things like bathing and bathroom visits for those that need it, and everyone's got emergency systems right in their rooms.
With 92 assisted living units, the community keeps its spaces active-there's a game room, theater with a big TV, a bistro, library-sitting area, community kitchen, and private and guest dining rooms where you might hear live performances on the grand piano several times a week at meal times, and the dining is pretty well-rated with meals and snacks offered daily, a good selection of desserts, and meal delivery for anyone who'd rather eat privately, plus they serve kosher meals for those who request it. Staff are known for being both friendly and attentive, and there's 24/7 security, with healthcare staff and ancillary services always available, beautician and barber options, and respite as well as hospice care when those are needed, and the on-site and off-site devotionals show there's care for those who want spiritual connection.
Residents can stay busy with casino trips, arts and crafts, bingo, themed happy hours, exercise classes, and rides scheduled to Walmart, the doctor, or for group outings, and folks don't have to worry about lifting a finger when it comes to housekeeping or transportation because those services are already set up, and if someone likes to socialize or just be out in the shared spaces, there are common areas inside and out, so folks can pick what suits them, and the design keeps things accessible for wheelchairs everywhere. Grand Manor only accepts female residents, and while it's mainly listed under retirement centers, it's also suitable for special occasions-with event spaces for weddings or corporate gatherings set in what people call a historic and picturesque environment, making it a bit different from the usual places, and every bit of it is set up to meet the comfort and care needs of seniors in St. Clair County.
