Here is what our Elaine’s Hope families have to say


The entire staff of Elaine’s Hope reflect the best of what caregivers can provide for the most frail and vulnerable of our elderly.

Everyone on staff is my mom’s guardian angel and she is very lucky to have all of you. I hope everyone in memory care knows how important and valued you are to our loved ones and the families. God Bless.

I cannot thank you enough for the care you show my mom and everyone else who crosses your path. I am so touched and grateful for you. 

Over the years that my father, has been at Elaine’s Hope Lutheran Home Memory Carey everyone has been so kind to him.  It’s been obvious that we’ve entrusted his care to very special people. But with the pandemic we realized you are also heroes as well – true angels, working the front lines and putting yourselves at risk for others.  You are making such a difference and saving lives. Our family is comforted to see how well he is doing, a reflection of the wonderful and loving care he continues to get from the incredible Lutheran Home Family! Words seem inadequate but THANK YOU TO ALL!!

This is Elaine’s Hope

PROGRAMMING


Structured daily activities including physical and memory exercises, social events, art classes, music, community outings, games, and pet therapy are just a few of the activities that occur on a regular basis.  

In addition to all our regularly scheduled activities and outings, we provide unparalleled intergenerational programming. Children from the Lutheran Home Children’s Center enjoy various activities with their grandfriends on a regular basis. Intergenerational programming promotes educational objectives, arts and recreation interests, desired states of health and welfare, and religious and spiritual well-being. Furthermore, intergenerational programs have been found to diminish ageist stereotypes, strengthen communities, and lead to improved services for children, youth and older adults.
