Sacred Heart Home is a first-class assisted living community in Phoenix, Arizona. It is within enjoyable Maricopa County which is part of the Grand Canyon State.
Sacred Heart Home is an intermediate long-term care residence. The facility is operated by the Sisters Servants of Mary Immaculate. Located on beautifully wooded grounds, outside of Washington DC, it embodies the Roman Catholic call to particiate in Christ's Healing Ministry, providing quality and comprehensive long-term health care to the elderly. Opened in 1926, our non-profit home cares for 100 residents in a warm, loving atmosphere.
We will continue to provide an innovative, caring environment for everyone associated with Sacred Heart Home, including our partners and our community. We will continue to grow and change to meet the needs of our residents as well as our staff, volunteers and friends. Most importantly, we will continue to build a home for Caring Hearts.
The Sisters Servants find meaning and spiritual nurturing in the work they do at Sacred Heart Home and in their various facilities and programs throughout the world.
The Congregation of the Sisters Servants of Mary Immaculate was founded in 1878, when the Immaculate Virgin Mary appeared to three young country girls in Gietrzwald, Poland. The order came to America in 1934. In America, we have served both the old and the young, with both a pre-kindergarten program and nursing home in Baltimore and Sacred Heart Home, a nursing home community, in Hyattsville, Maryland. We also work with Catholic Charities doing outreach to the homebound elderly in Cleveland, Ohio, and we serve as sacristans at the National Shrine in Washington, DC.
Our goals are as simple as they are spiritual:
- spread the word of God,
- help individuals strengthen their lives of faith and Christian morals,
- increase devotion to the Blessed Virgin Mary by imitating her hidden life,
- encourage others by good examples and deeds,
- pray for the world and its needs through the recitation of the Rosary.
Besides the Motherhouse in Poland and our ministries in the United States, we also serve communities in Italy, Lithuania, Africa and Latvia.
Our service is our response to Christ's call to mercy, in the form of caring for the aged and infirmed. We care for those who can no longer care for themselves with love, understanding, and compassion regardless of race, color, creed, national origin, or financial status.
We teach, guide and support each other—staff, residents, friends ,and the community to:
- Respect the life and dignity of every human being
- Provide the highest levels of professional and comprehensive health and wellness services
- Celebrate diversity and serve all of our constituencies
- Continually value education, training, development and outreach
- Practice careful stewardship of Sacred Heart Home's financial and human resources
- Witness with loving and caring hearts to everyone who is a part of Sacred Heart Home community
Because of our love of God and each other, we will continually strive to identify and meet the ever-changing health and social needs of our residents and community, and promote activities and programs for the welfare of all with whom we come in contact.
The mission of Sacred Heart Home and the Sisters Servants of Mary Immaculate is to promote the highest religious values with regard to human life and dignity, according to the teachings of the Roman Catholic Church.
