Little Sisters who dedicate their lives to the elderly live on-site and are available 24/7 to respond to Residents’ needs. The dignity of the Resident is the #1 priority in our Home. All Residents get up and dressed daily, and get their hair done and nails manicured regularly at our Home’s beauty parlor. A full-time Chaplain lives on site to attend to Residents’ spiritual needs Each Resident has a private room and bathroom Each of our independent apartments has a kitchenette, living area and bedroom. Apartment Residents are also welcome to enjoy home-style meals in our dining room at no charge, as well as participate in activities and religious services in our chapel. Many Residents volunteer to help in various areas of the home according to their abilities, which contributes to a family-like atmosphere. Some help in the laundry or kitchen, while others visit with fellow Residents who are room-bound. We offer on-site physical/occupational therapy, a podiatrist, general-care doctors, and a dentist for our Residents’ convenience. In the final moments of life, a Little Sister is present at the bedside, praying and accompanying the elderly.
