Long Term Care

Our long term care team provides a comprehensive continuum of care for loved ones that require 24-hour supervision as well as assistance with the activities of daily living. We provide a level of skilled nursing support beyond that of retirement and assisted living communities.

A beautiful setting, quality, compassionate nursing care, and our unique approach to enriching the lives of our residents, makes Martha & Mary more than just a place to live out life, but also a place to live life as fully as possible.

No, we accept and respect people of all faiths. In fact, many of the spiritual care services that we offer are “ecumenical” in nature.

Where does the name Martha & Mary come from?

Our founder selected the name after the story in the Bible (Luke 10:38-42) of two sisters that had invited Jesus into their home. One sister was name Martha while the other was named Mary. This story reminds us that while each of us are called to serve in different ways, we can never get so busy with tasks that we forget the value of relationships with those around us.
