As Administrator of Mother Angeline
McCrory Manor, I welcome you to our Web site and thank you for paying us a
visit.
Mother Angeline McCrory Manor, located in Columbus, Ohio welcomed its
first residents in April 2005, carrying over the wonderful traditions and
quality of care that existed at St. Rita’s and St. Raphael’s Homes in
Columbus since the late 1940’s.
Due to the age of these original
facilities, the buildings needed to be replaced if the Sisters were to
continue their ministry of caring for the elderly in the Columbus Diocese. |
Sister Pauline Ross, O.Carm |
| Through the help and generosity of Bishop James Griffin,
this was made possible on an eight acre tract of land adjacent to the St.
Therese Retreat Center on the Far East side of Columbus. This 147 bed
skilled nursing facility makes possible a full continuum of care on a
campus where there already existed The Villas at St. Therese Assisted and
Independent Living.
Mother Angeline McCrory Manor is the only facility in the entire Columbus,
Ohio Diocese with the comforting presence of the Carmelite Sisters for the
Aged and Infirm and it is named after their Foundress, Mother Angeline
Teresa McCrory. This order of Sisters, whose Motherhouse is located in
Germantown, New York, provides loving care for the elderly in 25
facilities located in nine different states. On a daily basis, the Sisters
and the dedicated staff at Mother Angeline McCrory Manor live their motto,
“The Difference is Love”.
For the Carmelite Sisters, serving at Mother Angeline McCrory Manor is a work
of love and the design of this building reflects the Sisters’ philosophy of
providing a residential, non-institutional environment that is as home-like as
possible. The tradition of spiritually–motivated and wholistic care, established
and nurtured so well at St. Rita’s and at St Raphael’s over the years, promises
to continue and to thrive in this new environment.
If you, or someone you love, is in need of long term care or short term
rehabilitation, this may be the facility for you. We invite you to speak with us
so that we can help you plan appropriately. If you want to work in a caring
environment where you can make a difference in someone’s life each day and you
want to enjoy the colleagues you work with, this is definitely the facility for
you. Please contact our Human Resources Department. If you are inclined to
donate some of your time or talent to a worthwhile endeavor, we need you! Please
