Providing compassionate care for those at the end of life.
Our Mission
To offer comfort-based personal, emotional, and spiritual care to guests of Mercy House; to provide support for families and friends of guests; and to coordinate community education, engagement, and involvement.
Mercy House provides compassionate end-of-life care in a calm, peaceful setting. The physical, emotional, and spiritual needs of guests are addressed, and families and friends are comforted and supported.
Mercy House is an independent nonprofit and is the first home of its kind in Franklin County, serving members of the community and surrounding counties who cannot be cared for at home or don’t need to be hospitalized. Uniquely designed to manage end-of-life care, Mercy House employs specially trained and licensed caregivers who are attentive to individual needs. Partnering with area hospice agencies in creating comprehensive plans for holistic care, Mercy House is proud to be part of the movement to improve the end-of-life experience for individuals, families, and friends.
Everyone loves potatoes! Bake ’em, boil ’em, fry ’em, mash ’em … they always taste heavenly.
Mercy House is celebrating National Tater Day. A guest recently requested french fries, and we were happy to run out for hot ones!
Tell us your favorite potato dish...

Betty's Kitchen, named in memory of Elizabeth "Betty" Duffek Shuta, recognizes the generosity and commitment to excellence in end-of-life care of Sandy and Jon Woodward, Betty's daughter and son-in-law. She was the inspiration for Mercy House, and we remember her as we prepare snacks and meals in Betty's Kitchen.

Thank you! Her time spent at Mercy House was "Heaven Sent"..... the serenity and peace there was incredible. The care was wonderful. Mercy House of Chambersburg has duplicated what she experienced in Endicott, NY. I'm so thankful we can be a part of this wonderful place.
Last year, Mercy House served 194 guests and their families and friends, providing over 1,200 days of compassionate end-of-life care. Your support made this possible, ensuring no one faces their final journey alone or without dignity and respect.
