Prairie Vista Manor Admnstrtn sits in Montana, offering assisted living, memory care, skilled nursing, and independent living services for seniors, and the main building was built in 1997 with a renovation in 2008, so it's up to date but feels comfortable, and the place tries to help residents save energy by supporting Team Power Smart, showing off energy-efficient buildings, and giving out tools like heat pump and appliance cost calculators, along with the HydroHome app, which can help folks understand their energy use and save some money if they want to. The facility shares tips and rebates for better appliances, solar panels, water use, and more, and there are programs for low-income people, manufactured housing support, and deals for those who want to upgrade their homes or condos, and staff help residents and their families with things like EnerGuide Home Evaluations and advice about repairs or electric homes, so people can live safely and affordably as they age, especially since manufactured homes are pretty common in Montana.
There's a focus on helping everyday life feel just a little bit easier, and anyone needing help with diabetic care, daily insulin, medication reminders, or blood sugar can count on the staff, including nurses, an on-call doctor, and a visiting podiatrist, while other caregivers are able to help with memory care for those with dementia, giving specialized attention for wandering or confusion, and all therapies like physical or occupational therapy and hospice services come right to the building, for those who need them. Staff speak Ukrainian and Armenian, which helps folks who feel more comfortable in those languages, and meals come in many kinds, with kosher or vegetarian choices and options for those with restrictions, and the dining room aims to serve meals that people like to eat.
Transportation is available if someone needs to go somewhere, and sometimes that ride is free while at times it might have a small charge, but the facility is close to one hospital, a pharmacy, a restaurant, and five places of worship, and it offers devotional activities both onsite and offsite for those who want them. The building has large indoor common areas for gathering or relaxing, and it offers activities both inside and outside, so residents can stay as busy as they like or enjoy quiet time when they want.
Prairie Vista Manor Admnstrtn works with other assisted living and memory care providers, including Timber Creek Village Assisted Living of Havre and a partner in Rocky Boy West, and they all aim to help seniors who need assistance with things like bathing, dressing, mobility, or medication, whether someone's mostly independent or needs more daily support. For those who want to understand or manage their electricity or home repairs, Prairie Vista Manor Admnstrtn offers help with electricity rates, connections, and rebates, and it assists business customers, electric vehicle owners, Indigenous communities, and others who use energy in their homes or on their property. The facility manages utilities, bills, and accounts, and provides guidance for contractors or anyone doing renovations or home upgrades, and residents who live in manufactured homes can get support for repairs, community management, and even help to own their homes together, thanks to the resident owned community (ROC) programs.
Overall, the community aims to make life safe, comfortable, and supportive for the many types of seniors who live there, offering care, meals, learning opportunities, therapies, transportation, social time, and peaceful spaces, all without complicated rules, and it's always ready to talk about what's possible for the next phase of aging.
