From the scenic landscaping, the woods and natural wildlife, to the convenient location situated near many shopping and dining options, Saint Francis Woods offers the full package of care for heart, body, soul, and mind. Our exceptional care, support, and financial assistance makes us your number one choice.

Supportive living provides an alternative solution to the growing need for affordable housing for today’s seniors 65 or better who does not need a nursing home but could benefit from a little extra help. The main difference between assisted living and supportive living is money.

Residents have the luxury of living in their own private apartment independently, being self-sufficient as long as possible while still having nursing care and other supportive services as needed. St. Francis Woods provides our residents with three meals a day plus snacks, housekeeping and laundry services, social interaction, health and wellness activities for heart, mind and body, medication assistance, assistance with setting up transportation, and so much more.

Whereas assisted living is strictly private pay, we accept Medicaid. Supportive living is designed to offer residents who qualify, the opportunity to pay through a combination of their own social security income and Medicaid benefits when unable to pay privately. Furthermore, this also means once you have exhausted all your funds, you do not have to leave your home.

“Living here has changed my life a lot. I had some serious medical issues while living in my home before I came here and I knew I couldn’t go back to the same environment. I asked God to help me! He has helped me get well so I can help other people like me. I believe it was a calling from God that I am here at St. Francis Woods. I am a better person, and I have peace and patience. Thanks to all the staff for making this an excellent home for me!"
