Garvey Manor has served the elderly since 1965. The present building complex opened in 2003. Under joint sponsorship of the Diocese of Altoona-Johnstown and the Carmelite Sisters for the Aged & Infirm, the facility is a not-for-profit organization incorporated in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania as Garvey Manor Nursing Home, Inc. The designation as a Continuing Care Retirement Community was issued by the Pennsylvania Department of Insurance in 2009.
The primary mission of the facility is residential care and services for the elderly. The Carmelite Sisters who serve in ministry together with professional and ancillary lay staff strive to make their philosophy of care a vital part of everyday life at the facility. The Mission: To promote and provide personal and professional quality of care and service in an atmosphere which reflects Christ’s compassion, love and concern for the elderly, provides the guiding vision. The words of Mother Angeline Teresa McCrory, Foundress of the Carmelite Sisters …‘to clasp the hand of an aged person and give meaning to the autumn of life’ summarize the charism behind the philosophy.
