They still bear fruit in old age; they are ever full of sap and green, to declare that the Lord is upright; he is my rock, and there is no unrighteousness in him.
– Psalm 92:14-15

What is a Care Village?

A care village is a network formed within a geographic area to support older adults independently aging in the community. The Providence Senior Care Village will be for those 60+ in the Harrisburg, NC area.

Why a Care Village?

Aging adults desire to live independently as long as possible. A care village fosters independence, Christian spirituality, wellness, engagement, care, and support. Providence Senior Care Village focuses on living safely at home, staying connected through social networks, and having access to community resources while receiving the support of a faith community.

Assessment / Questionnaire

The Senior Care Village leadership would like to gain a comprehensive understanding of how well seniors are prepared for the challenges of aging and identify areas where additional support or planning may be needed. This confidential survey includes questions about your current health status, home accessibility, financial planning, social connections, family support, access to healthcare, and interests.
