Pine Hills Retirement Community
Pine Hills Retirement Community, a 78-bed community in Hot Springs, SD, runs independent living plus assisted living. Everyday tasks are what assisted living help covers. Independent living is meant for somebody who does not need daily care at all.
Having both together suits a person whose support needs might climb later. Vickie Nekuda administers the community, and 52 for a Walk Score means some errands can be handled on foot.
Rehabilitation Services are named among the services. Senior Living Wellness is a program with a name of its own for a resident who wants wellness programming as part of the week.
