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.
Your generosity helps us create a warm, homelike environment for our guests and their families during life's most challenging moments. We've updated our Amazon Wish List with items that make a real difference in daily careโfrom comfort essentials to supplies that enhance quality of life.

Hoping it will be a GREAT success!!!! Blessings!
At Mercy House, heart is everything. Each month, we honor a team member as our "๐๐๐ซ๐๐ฒ ๐๐๐๐ซ๐ญ ๐จ๐ ๐ญ๐ก๐ ๐๐จ๐ง๐ญ๐ก" recipientโsomeone whose compassion, dedication, and heart embody our mission to its fullest.
This October, we celebrated Alyssaโsomeone who consistently goes above and beyond to ensure every guest receives care wrapped in kindness, dignity, and comfort. She takes initiative without being asked, notices the details others might miss, and helps maintain a space that feels clean, calm, and genuinely welcoming. We are deeply grateful for Alyssa and the extraordinary heart she brings to our mission every single day.

Congratulations you are a good and caring person I miss seeing you at MH
Alyssa was such a great comfort to me and a wonderful caregiver to my mom Judie when we were there in October. I “roomed in”, and Alyssa was there to chat in the overnight hours when I needed a friend. Well deserved! ๐
In the hardest moment, you’re care is the greatest comfortโค๏ธ May you be proud of the work you do, the person you are & the difference you make๐๐ผ

In 1916, the estate of John H. Shook, banker and prominent civic figure from Greencastle, provided funds for The John H. Shook Home for the Aged in Chambersburg. The John H. Shook Foundation continues the legacy of John H. Shook by making grants to non-profit organizations in the area of health and human services for the benefit and support of the elderly population in Franklin County.
We are grateful for their trust in our work and this meaningful investment in our mission.
