We understand there may be needs beyond short term or long-term care services and offer specialized services to meet the individual needs. Our specialized services include hospice and respite services.
Hospice Care
Knowing that a loved one is suffering from a debilitating illness or possibly even nearing the end of their life, it is often very difficult to deal with mentally, physically and spiritually. The staff at Kendallville Manor combines knowledge and empathy to help manage a patient’s symptoms and make the patient as comfortable as possible. Outside hospice providers may be able to offer further support if the Resident meets hospice criteria. Educating and comforting the family is also part of end of life care services provided by our staff
Respite Care
Respite care is designed to relieve individuals or families involved in caring for a loved one who is no longer physically or mentally capable of taking care of themselves on a daily basis. Yorktown Manor offers a respite care stay program that allows for caregivers to take a break and take care of themselves. Whether a caregiver must travel for business or recuperate from an illness or injury, we can relieve the burden of daily caregiving through our respite care program. Kendallville Manor offers its full continuum of services including 24-hour nursing care, medication administration, daily meals and snacks, laundry services, planned activities and social services, during respite stays.

"When my brother-in-law suffered an unexpected stroke, we looked for a facility that was smaller and that we knew he would not become just another patient. Kendallville Manor was the perfect fit for him and us. The staff is warm and generous, and they quickly became family. We are thankful that there are such caring people taking care of my brother-in-law." -Esther McMillen
