Dominican Village is an Independent & Assisted Living Retirement Community serving over 275 residents. Its mission is “to promote an aging in place philosophy within a supportive environment in which the sacredness of life and the dignity of each person are held in the highest regard.” We offer residents person centered care with a choice of quality driven programs and services. Our activities foster independence, promote physical, mental, emotional and spiritual health. Dominican Village is based on a social model encouraging interconnectivity among all residents.

While in-person visits from friends and families are on hold for now, that does not mean we cannot connect.

Dominican Village recognizes that community is vitally important – it is at the heart of our core values and who we are as an organization. The challenges posed by the current climate have resulted in many changes to our daily lives – including limiting contact with others. To protect the health and safety of our residents and staff, Dominican Village has

temporarily closed our communities to outside visitors.
