Loreto on the Plains Personal Care Home
"Where Prayer Makes the Difference
Giving Hope Where there is No Hope"
Loreto on the Plains Personal Care Home has 3 patient / resident rooms plus a private Guest Room. The rooms are decorated in a very welcoming, home-like style. The Blue Room is a special Guest Room for times when a family member is dying and the family desires to stay close. Sometimes the family has traveled long distances and needs a place to rest until hotel arrangements are made the following day.
There is a private chapel, which will be available 24 hrs a day for patients and families as well as the volunteers and "staff" of the Center. It is a quiet and intimate place of prayer where the one can come for comfort and healing.
Media and toy room for the children who come to visit. Thanks to the generosity of many, toys and books are available for wide range of ages. The TV is for DVD's and Video tapes provided for the children. The Nest Family entire series of scripture DVD's attract young and old.
Visiting areas where family and friends can share without disturbing the patient / resident. Also available to the patients and their families is the use of the Pope John Paul II Family Life Center
