Pratt Regional Living Center has recently been selected to receive the Leading Edge Care and Services Award from the Kansas Association of Homes and Services for the Aging (KAHSA).

“We received the award for our Montessori Based Dementia Care,” PRLC director, Janet Cline said. “Since we’ve started this program, many of our residents have experienced positive results, and are doing things they have not been able to do in years.” This program is just one of the many steps PRLC is taking in culture change to provide a better quality of life for their residents.

There were a total of 50 nominations for this award. “Receiving this award is a great honor,” Cline said. “Our staff has worked very hard to implement the Montessori Based Dementia Care, which helps to improve the quality of life of our residents.”

Pratt Regional Living Center, owned and operated by Pratt Regional Medical Center, is a 51 bed, long-term and short-term care facility. For information about PRLC, please contact Janet Cline at 672-3424.
