Marian Woods is a New York State Licensed Adult Care Facility in Hartsdale, New York, created specifically for retired Catholic women religious. Our community provides a peaceful and supportive home where Sisters may continue to live in community while receiving compassionate, person-centered care.
Sponsored by the Carmelite Sisters for the Aged and Infirm, Marian Woods is rooted in Catholic values and guided by a spirit of hospitality, dignity, and respect.
The Sisters who call Marian Woods home are women who dedicated their lives to living the Gospel through prayer, service, education, healthcare, and ministry.
Founded through the collaboration of several religious congregations, Marian Woods was created to provide a nurturing environment that supports the aging process while honoring lifelong vocation, spiritual life, and community.
