Giving voice to the topics that mean the most to those who matter the most.
History is always on the move. The events and achievements of today and the plans and aspirations of tomorrow all become a part of a single narrative with the passage of time. Presbyterian Senior Living is a ministry that had very modest beginnings. Through the vision of its founders and the diligent work of the generations to follow, it has grown into a comprehensive network of services for seniors.

And as we look to the future, we will continue to evolve and diversify the scope of our services to exceed expectations of the individuals we serve.
