The Lutheran Life Communities

Life Plan living for people 62 and better.

Imagine the peace and privacy of your own home or apartment without the hassle that comes with house and yard maintenance. That’s the natural goodness of Life Plan living. After all, the freedom to live independently in your own private residence with the comfort and convenience of gracious amenities, a built-in social network and a team standing ready to greet and meet your needs is what community living is all about.

All of our communities are different when it comes to independent living residences. Whether you prefer apartment-style living or standalone private villas, you have options. Need a den or a guest room? Prefer a balcony or a sunroom? Villas and cottage homes feature a private patio or porch, some with an attached garage. Designer appointments make these homes attractive and comfortable, inside and out.

All of our communities are pet friendly.

For a full list of independent living amenities and services, please visit these community pages here: Wittenberg Village, Luther Oaks and Pleasant View.

Lutheran Home currently offers assisted living residences, along with memory care, skilled nursing, rehabilitation, respite stays and an adult day club for people who wish to age at their current residence but just need some support.

A little help goes a long way at Hearthstone Assisted Living.

As we age, our needs evolve, making it wonderful to have community living options that enhance our social network and offer convenient services to empower our independence.

You can find assisted living at Pleasant View, Wittenberg Village and Lutheran Home. Luther Oaks also offers assisted living that is reserved for its entrance fee residents should they need it, and is not open to the public.

MyTapestry delivers state-of-the-art memory support.

Lutheran Life Communities’ innovative MyTapestry Memory Support program provides state-of-the-art support to residents with Alzheimer’s and other forms of dementia. Memory care can benefit your loved one when you are concerned about their personal safety, anxiety level, healthy eating, medication management and the increased rate of cognitive decline due to social isolation. Getting support for family caregivers is also healthy for the family.

Purposeful days. Peaceful nights.
Tailored to honor every unique personality, MyTapestry encompasses family culture, accomplishments, interests and spiritual practices in a safe environment. Our approach focuses on compassionate communication to help people with cognitive needs to live the most fulfilling life possible with dignity.

We embrace the Best Friends™ model and its focus on relationship-centered care, socialization and creative activity. Moments of grace and spiritual care enliven memories, bring joy and uplift each day through religious services, music and arts.

Community living is perfect for couples when one person needs memory support. This lifestyle empowers the caregiving member to have freedom and support, while living on the same campus, just a short walk away from their loved one.

When MyTapestry is the right choice.
Every situation is unique. If your family member has been diagnosed with Alzheimer’s or another form of dementia, you’re bound to have questions about the level of care they need. We’re here to help.

Memory care that is open to the public is available at Pleasant View and Lutheran Home. Luther Oaks reserves its memory care for entrance fee residents only.

Get back to your best self with MyRehab.

Where you recover matters. MyRehab is the preferred outpatient and short-term rehabilitation therapy provider. Physician groups and nearby hospitals trust our expert therapists and rehabilitation teams to deliver quality outcomes quickly and consistently and avoid subsequent injury and re-hospitalization. At most Lutheran Life communities, outpatient rehabilitation therapies are open to the public and based on availability, with preferred access given to our residents.

In the wake of an illness, injury or surgery, MyRehab can help you regain your maximum level of health and independence. Therapists and physiologists at the MyRehab team work with you to develop individualized care plans in tandem with hospitals, physicians and healthcare providers. Physical, occupational and speech therapists provide specialized treatments, exercise and services. Our common goal is to help you return to the independent lifestyle you most enjoy.

MyRehab’s light-filled environment features private suites, a state-of-the-art therapy gym, atrium spaces, spacious living rooms and bistro-style dining. During your stay, you’ll have access to many of the community spaces, amenities and programs. Our hospitality approach feels more like a hotel stay than a clinical health center.

Medicare will often pay for rehabilitation. Plus, you can choose where you feel most comfortable recovering. Be sure to mention that MyRehab at Lutheran Life is your first choice during any hospital discharge process.

Full skilled rehabilitation and outpatient services are available at the Lutheran Home and Pleasant View. Wittenberg Village offers a robust outpatient therapy program. Luther Oaks only offers rehabilitation to our full-time residents.

Clinical experience with seniors sets us apart.

The first thing you will notice about our skilled nursing is the environment is spacious and brightly lit, with views and a host of amenities.

The Lutheran Home looks like a modern lodge, with stunning gardens and outdoor spaces. At Pleasant View, you’ll find neighbors taking care of neighbors and sometimes even families taking care of families, as our team members often choose our community for their own loved ones, which speaks volumes about the quality of our care.

Whether it is recovering from hospitalization, addressing a chronic condition or helping with respite care, Lutheran Life Communities offers a skilled nursing team to handle complex cases with the right combination of medical expertise and care for the spirit.

Residents receive continuous monitoring with attention to critical care and mental health needs, overseen by our medical director and director of nursing, who specialize in geriatric medicine. Each maintains a strong team-to-resident ratio and ensures that all team members receive the latest in high-quality training.

Our focus is to provide excellent, skilled medical care with attention to emotional needs and well-being in a setting with familiar faces and friends. Private suites are available.

Respite Care When You Need It.

Looking for a temporary break from your caregiving responsibilities? Our respite care services offer the perfect solution. At Lutheran Home, we understand the importance of caring for caregivers, which is why we provide a safe, supportive environment where your loved one can stay while you take some time for yourself.

Our highly trained team ensures that your loved one receives personalized care and attention tailored to their needs, giving you peace of mind knowing they are in good hands. It’s not uncommon when respite guests decide they would like to stay at the community after receiving the support and social connection they need.

Whether you need a few hours, a few days or longer, our respite care program offers flexibility to fit your schedule. Take the time you need to recharge and rejuvenate while we provide compassionate care for your loved one. Contact Lutheran Home, Pleasant View, Luther Oaks, and Wittenberg Village today to learn more about each community’s individual respite care services.
