Pittsfield Manor has received a Trust Grade of F, indicating significant concerns about the quality of care provided. It ranks #611 out of 665 nursing homes in Illinois, placing it in the bottom half of facilities in the state, and is the lowest-ranked option in Pike County. The facility is worsening, with issues increasing dramatically from 2 in 2023 to 34 in 2024.

The facility is operated by UNLIMITED DEVELOPMENT, INC., a chain that manages multiple nursing homes.

What Should Families Ask When Visiting Pittsfield Manor?
Based on this facility's data, families visiting should ask: "What changes have been made since the serious inspection findings, and how are you preventing similar issues?" "What safeguards and monitoring systems are in place to protect residents from abuse or neglect?" "Can I visit during a mealtime to observe dining assistance and food quality?" "How do you handle medical emergencies, and what is your hospital transfer rate?" These questions are particularly relevant given the facility's Immediate Jeopardy citations and the substantiated abuse finding on record.
Is Pittsfield Manor Safe?

Inspectors have issued 1 Immediate Jeopardy citation (the most serious violation level indicating risk of serious injury or death).

Do Nurses at Pittsfield Manor Stick Around?

Was Pittsfield Manor Ever Fined?
PITTSFIELD MANOR has been fined $251,493 across 4 penalty actions. This is 7.1x the Illinois average of $35,594. Fines at this level are uncommon and typically indicate a pattern of serious deficiencies, repeated violations, or failure to correct problems promptly. CMS reserves penalties of this magnitude for facilities that pose significant, documented risk to resident health or safety. Families should request specific documentation of what issues led to these fines and what systemic changes have been implemented.
Is Pittsfield Manor on Any Federal Watch List?
PITTSFIELD MANOR is not on any federal watch list. The most significant is the Special Focus Facility (SFF) program, which identifies the bottom 1% of nursing homes nationally based on persistent, serious quality problems. Not being on this list means the facility has avoided the pattern of deficiencies that triggers enhanced federal oversight. This is a positive indicator, though families should still review the facility's inspection history directly.
