The grounds of Seward Mountain Haven have four homes designed for 10 elders who each enjoy their own spacious bedroom and private bathroom. The great room of each home has an open-air kitchen, family-style dining room and a hearth where elders and guests can gather to visit. The homes also have secure patios with breathtaking views of Seward’s mountains and bay.

In this home-like environment, caregivers provide a high-level of nurturing care. Elders have the opportunity to be more involved in daily activities such as cooking, planning menus, picking furnishings and choosing décor. Family and friends are welcome and encouraged to visit.

Although the houses look and function like homes rather than traditional institutional nursing facilities, the quality and level of medical care remains high. The environment of Seward Mountain Haven, combined with continued high-quality long-term medical care provides elders with a better quality of life and may improve overall health.

Long term care services

Here at Mountain Haven, we provide a variety of nutrition services for our elders to ensure their health status. These include but are not limited to nutrition assessments, diet education, food safety walkthroughs, and food choice assistance. We also provide nutrition continuing education for our caregivers so that they can offer more to the elders. We strive to meet elders' health goals while maximizing their enjoyment of food and life.

Through conducting comprehensive nutrition assessments and counseling, we hope to guide you to making long-lasting health behavioral changes that promotes and enhances your well being.

Our Mission Integration Manager aims to live our mission every day and foster excellence in spiritual care by providing compassionate service to all of our Elders. She makes regular rounds to visit our Elders and assists them in prayer, Scripture, Celebration of Life services and special occasions. She is also there to lend a hand with puzzles and games or a just a helpful ear to listen. Participating in life engagement activities with our Elders helps build a relationship of trust and respect for each other.

She also seeks to integrate the Mission among Caregivers. Aside from meeting the needs of some of our most vulnerable citizens, including being their advocate and meeting their spiritual needs, she enjoys working with a great staff. This is not easy work; it takes a special kind of person to perform this kind of service, and it is a blessing to work with such a great interdisciplinary team.

Worship services are held each Sunday at 2:00 p.m., which are led by different local community churches on a rotating basis. Each lodge takes turns hosting the service, and community clergy members also visit the lodges throughout the week and on special occasions. Singing hymns is especially popular with our Elders here, and many of the Elders enjoy listening to singing groups and special music provided by caring volunteers from the Seward community. When the weather permits, Elders can gather in the Chapel, located in the Commons Building, for singing, worship, prayer or simply meditation.

Our goal in the Mission Integration/Spiritual Care Department is to facilitate spiritual growth and enable each Elder to achieve his or her own individual goals along a unique spiritual journey. No matter what the faith tradition—or none at all—we are here to support, encourage and provide a ministry of presence to Caregivers, Elders, and family members.
