About Acanthus Senior Living

Moving from home to a senior center can be difficult. Acanthus makes this transition and experience better for you. With Acanthus Senior Living, you can simply move into a senior center next to your parish or a neighboring parish. This will enable you to maintain the relationships that you have with your family, your fellow parishioners and your church. Acanthus recognized the benefits for a more personalized senior living option that allows an individual to continue to be intimately involved with their local parish. In working with the individual parishes to create senior facilities on parish grounds, Acanthus focuses on caring for not just the physical and mental needs, but the family, spiritual and community needs of each individual resident.
