about us

Welcome to Franciscan Ministries, a ministry of the Franciscan Sisters of Chicago with a collection of senior living communities that offer independent living, assisted living, memory care, skilled nursing, rehabilitation, respite care, and home healthcare from Franciscan Care Solutions. For more than a century, we’ve provided residents with the highest quality of care, personalized service, and social interaction.

From locally sourced dining and refreshing outdoor spaces to daily assistance when you need it and extensive activity calendars, our senior living communities are founded on resident health, safety and wellbeing. With a resident experience inspired by the seven dimensions of wellness, we ensure you’ll have the autonomy, respect, and care you deserve.

"My Mom has flourished immensely at Ancora Memory Care. I praise God with the biggest smile on my face for her new home away from home. The care that Mom receives is wonderful. I highly recommend Ancora memory care for your loved ones.”
