Why Not Move Now

Information from Friendship Manor

Owning and maintaining a home can be more time consuming and difficult than it used to be. Consider a move to Friendship Manor now while you are healthy and can fully enjoy the amenities and social opportunities an active retirement community provides. Eight service divisions provide a full range of care from independent living to skilled nursing. Everything you need, even if your health needs change, is right here at Friendship Manor.

If you aren’t quite sure yet if a retirement community is right for you, sign up to join our pre-residency program, Friendship Connection, which allows you to participate in day trips, exercise classes and social mixers even before you decide to move in. When you join Friendship Connection, you’ll be placed on our priority wait list for your apartment and can apply your membership fee to your first month’s rent when you do move in. You also receive priority admission to our on-site skilled nursing facility, Silver Cross Health and Rehabilitation Pavilion.

Friendship Manor offers a calendar of events and activities that are sure to keep you entertained and fill your days with fun and friends. Social activities at the Manor allow you to dine out with your friends, shop at South Park or take in a show. Give Wii bowling a shot or practice your bluff as you join residents in a game of penny poker or Bunco. Allow the shuttle van to get you to and from the grocery store or other errands as you enjoy the spring weather and the luxury of not having to drive yourself.

Friendship Manor is the Illinois Quad Cities only continuing care retirement community. The full continuum of care includes New Friendships memory care where residents with Alzheimer’s and dementia receive specialized care in an environment designed specifically for their needs. And in-house therapy where you can receive physical, occupational and speech therapy as a resident of the Manor or as an outpatient. Respite admissions and hospice care are also available.

Once you move to Friendship Manor, you have a home for life. Our Life Care Guarantee ensures a home for you even if you exhaust your personal assets. The fear of running out of money is gone with our guarantee, meaning you can move to Friendship Manor sooner and start enjoying your retirement. You can stay at the Manor with your friends or spouse and won’t have to leave if you or your loved one’s health needs change.
