IN A WORLD that often rushes by, Franciscan Care Center offers a unique opportunity to slow down, embrace the present, and celebrate the rich stories of our diverse residents. Join us on a journey that is far from ordinary, and discover why what we offer is truly exceptional.
Upon entering the building, you are greeted by the centerpiece of our campus: a beautiful chapel. Modeled after the “little church,” or Portiuncula, outside of Assisi, Italy, it represents the caring ministry of St. Francis of Assisi in the 13th century.
As you explore our campus, you will encounter not just residents, but extraordinary individuals with life stories that span decades. Each person is a living testament to a lifetime of experiences, wisdom, and achievements. One of the most inspiring aspects of our faith-based community is its ability to bring together people from all walks of life, both staff and residents alike. These interactions foster strong bonds and prove that human connections are at the heart of our campus.
Jennifer Evans, Administrator, explains, “Our faith-based community is a sanctuary where we find solace in faith, beauty, and the company of our fellow residents. We share life stories in a place where generations meet, and every moment is a celebration of the human spirit. None of this would be possible without our dedicated and caring staff, who bring warmth and compassion daily.”
Learning knows no age. Our residents engage in a diverse range of activities that keep their minds sharp and spirits high. From craft and baking classes to exercise and gardening opportunities, as well as various religious services, we encourage everyone to explore new horizons. We also love to organize outings to local restaurants to add excitement to their lives!
Our campus features a serene garden and courtyard, offering residents a peaceful escape into nature. Surrounded by fragrant flowers and the occasional visit from butterflies, it is the perfect place to relax and rejuvenate.
Our residents have a deep appreciation for good food, and our dining experience is anything but ordinary. Thanks to our caring and talented staff, our chefs create nutritious meals that cater to individual tastes and dietary needs, with a focus on savoring life’s simple pleasures.
Daniel Meier, Director of Nursing, emphasizes, “In addition to the exceptional amenities we provide, we take pride in the quality of care at the Franciscan Care Center. Whether it’s short-term rehabilitation, long-term or end-of-life care, respite opportunities, or outpatient therapy, our focus is on improving the quality of life for every resident.”
We invite you to embark on this unique journey with us, where the ordinary transforms into something extraordinary, and every moment is a testament to the power of faith, connection, and community.
