When you’ve been in an industry for 15 years, you know what works best, especially when you’ve come up through the ranks. That is the case with Michael Abittan, M.S., the owner of Mountain View Senior Living and Memory Care in Greensburg. Abittan, who rose from being a member of the kitchen staff to administrator of a senior facility, opened Mountain View Senior Living and Memory Care with the objective of providing its residents with the pinnacle of senior living in a beautiful, home-like setting in which they receive the highest quality of care.
Abittan and his team led by Amy Light-Ahlborn, PHCA, LPN, Executive Director, has 30 years of experience in personal care as well as being a nurse. “This enables us to provide personalized, first-class care at competitive prices. Our approach to personal care and community is simple: we put your loved ones first,” said Abittan.
At Mountain View, they believe that every stage of life is meant to be cherished, and they’ve carefully curated its newly renovated facility to create a space where residents feel pampered and celebrated. From luxury accommodations to convenient community amenities, there are plenty of reasons to feel at home in Mountain View.
Mountain View puts your loved one at the heart of everything it does, and you can depend on their experienced staff to deliver round-the-clock care employing the latest personal and senior care methodologies.
Abittan invested much to provide state-of-the art care and services for seniors. Both the Mountain View Senior Living and Memory Care communities are nestled on hilltops in Greensburg close to shopping centers, restaurants, and entertainment venues.
Mountain View Senior Living is located at 132 Nature Park Road and focuses on providing a wide range of levels of care including acute care in a picturesque setting. In addition to this high level of healthcare services, Mountain View recently completed a renovation project which included the addition of two new state-of-the-art lounges, a new dining hall, and upgraded rooms. Private and semi-private rooms are available, and they feature many amenities including individualized heating and air conditioning units, private bathrooms, free Wi-Fi, in-house physical therapy gym, free cable and access to streaming services, and free local telephone service.
Mountain View Senior Living also offers a beautiful outdoor courtyard and dining, raised garden as well as 24-hour concierge service, state of the art surveillance system, in-house beauty parlor, comfortable and accommodating lounge areas with flat screen televisions.
“Mountain View is situated on 3 ½ acres providing gorgeous views for our residents,” said Abittan, “and yet we are close to everything.”
Abittan has thought of everything when it comes to Senior Living. Mountain View provides nutritious meals and snacks served under dietician supervision, a gourmet cafe and bistro food, and a la carte grill menu, which takes into consideration special diets.
Residents don’t have to worry about housekeeping, laundry or safety at Mountain View. And if a resident needs specialized care, arrangements can be made to bring in Podiatrists, Psychiatrists, Physician Visits, Physical, Occupation and Speech therapists; home heal/hospice and transportation to offsite visits.
In addition, at Mountain View there’s always something fun going on from exercise classes and games to trivia contests, crafts, and entertainment to social events such as Oktoberfest and outings to the nearby casino.
Like the senior living community, Mountain View Memory Care, located at 711 US-119, is located on another beautiful summit in Greensburg. There compassion meets expertise, and it offers a variety of conveniences and services to give families peace of mind that their loved ones are in the best of hands.
In addition to many of the amenities found at the senior living community, the Memory Care community provides a secure dementia unit for the safety of our residents and a broad spectrum of care levels customized for those with cognitive impairments. It features medication management and cognitive support designed to enhance positive experiences and reduce challenging behavior caused by dementia.
“The Memory Care residence also has a Dementia Care Specialist, Doreen C. Putnam Author, CDP®, CADDCT®, CMDCP®, CIPG, who serves as the facilitator for our Alzheimer’s and Dementia Support Group,” said Abittan. “Putnam has worked in the dementia field for more than three decades and is a seasoned facilitator.”
Her consulting firm, DCPutnam Consulting, currently educates family and professional caregivers and provides education programs to community organizations. She is the author of the children’s book, Sometimes Grandmama Doesn’t Know Me!
“From informative discussions to heartwarming connections, we’re here to provide support and understanding every step of the way,” said Abittan. “Whatever your needs, we at Mountain View are committed to providing an elevated experience for our residents,” said Abittan.
