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.
Mercy House encourages family members and friends to be supportive and involved in their loved ones' care, with large rooms, comfortable common areas, a family and friends lounge, and the option to stay overnight if desired.

Mercy House of Chambersburg is such a blessing. When our Mom was in the hospital and we were told she would need end of life care we did not want her to go back to the facility where she lived. We talked to palliative care and they recommended Mercy House. My sister and I were so thankful that she could go there. They take great care of your loved one and all of the family. Such kind and compassionate people that are very attentive to your loved one and the rest of the family. Our mother's passing was so peaceful and loving that I would definitely recommend that if you are in a position of losing a loved one and you can't take care of them yourself Mercy House is the place you want to be. ❤️
Mercy House made me and my mom very comfortable and made me feel like family well they took care of my mom and her final days thank God for mercy house and their loving staff
So happy that my son Tom was there. Not because he passed away, but because of the care he received

Grief is a deeply personal journey that looks different for everyone, and there's no 'right' way to experience it. Whether you're dealing with anticipatory grief before a loss or processing the death of a loved one, know that you don't have to walk this path alone. Contact us at Mercy House for further information.
