Civil War Living History

Find a Community

On Saturday, September 7th, members from the 9th PA Reserves Preservation Unit were at Juniper Village at Forest Hills for a living history presentation on the Civil War.

The bulk of their program was presented by a medical re-enactor, and educated residents on Civil War Medicine on the battlefield. There also was a discussion on the uniform and equipment of a Civil War Union soldier, as well as a presentation by Ms. Joanne Shelby-Kline on the topic “The Pittsburgh Branch of the US Sanitary Commission 1861-1865.” Many artifacts were passed around during the program for the residents to see, such as encased medical instruments, laminated lists of the apothecary medicines during that time and printed proposals to read from that era.

You’ve made the decision to find assisted living for someone you care a lot about and know in your heart they need more help getting through this chapter of their life than you can give. NOW WHAT? At Juniper Communities, that question was answered very quickly. Our family friend has been there several weeks. From administration to nurses, therapists, dining room staff, receptionists, and maintenance staff, I found everyone to be immediately and competently focused on the person and their needs with kindness and experience… Kudos to the staff who make a haven like this possible!
