A Continuum of Care

As Pittsfield’s only Continuing Care Retirement Community (CCRC), those selecting Berkshire Place can take advantage a full continuum of care as their needs change. Start with us at any stage of our continuum — from at-home care, outpatient physical therapy, or senior independent living to skilled nursing care and rehabilitation or to long-term care and memory (dementia) care. The major benefit is that you can keep your trusted connections when you need additional services.

We recognize that you may not need an inpatient stay for rehabilitation and skilled nursing, but rather could benefit from strengthening on an outpatient basis to recover from illness or surgery with or without a hospital stay. If this may be the case, you can participate in our outpatient rehabilitation program, which offers the same access to our skilled physical, occupational and speech therapists up to seven days per week as our inpatient services.
