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.
A convertible chair in each guest room at Mercy House allows a family member or dear friend to rest if they choose to stay with their loved one throughout the night.

Mercy House staffs a nurse and a caregiver for each shift. The average staffing ratio for most skilled nursing facilities is one caregiver to 12 residents.
This lower staff-to-guest ratio allows for individualized, focused care and more one-on-one time with our guests, along with close attention to family needs.
