Clarview Continues Commitment to Residents

In 1975 Clarview Rest home, Inc., a private not-for-profit corporation was established to provide improved medical services to the citizens of Clarion County. Through their efforts, a plan for a new facility was created. Clarview Nursing and Rehabilitation Center opened its doors the week prior to Thanksgiving in 1979. In 1996, Clarview Rest Home Inc. began the expansion of the original dietary department, the addition of a 2400 square foot rehabilitation gym, and the creation of a new 24-room Personal Care facility, Country Springs. More recently, Clarview has opened the doors to their Short-Term Rehab Unit-Clarview Country Rehab Suite.

According to Clarview’s website, their mission statement is as follows: “provide the citizens of Clarion County and the surrounding area with services of excellence in specialized nursing, rehabilitation and health care. Our mission will be carried out with a total commitment to quality, dignity, respect and hospitality in all relationships with our customers and our community.
