St. Francis Manor

In December 2010 we broke ground for the St. Francis Manor renovation and remodeling project.  As we celebrated this new year, we announced another milestone – 75 percent completion!

Evidence of giving is truly all around us.  In November, residents enjoyed the newly remodeled dining rooms for the first time; the social center has been renovated with access to our new commercial-sized kitchen; and Administration has now moved to the East Wing featuring new conference rooms and offices.

At St. Francis Manor we strive for excellence. Making a continued effort to keep up with new technology and advances in care is one of the reasons we are the highest-rated skilled health care facility in Poweshiek County. That is why we have started a whirlpool fund through St. Francis Manor Foundation. With our ongoing renovations to our facilities, we plan to install four new whirlpool bathing systems, one on each wing.

“The whirlpools will be a benefit to the residents; our goal is to improve the quality of care,” says Dianna Hoye, Administrator, RN. “And having more available whirlpool units gives frequent access to all residents.”

Donations to this cause have already been made by the Brownell Family Foundation, the Claude W. Ahrens Charitable Trust, Ramsey-Weeks, Wes and Marilyn Finch, and Mary Russell totaling almost $45,000.

All donations to St. Francis Manor Foundation are tax deductible. Contact us at 641-236-7592 if you have any questions about St. Francis Manor Foundation and our current efforts towards the campus renovation and remodel.
