ADMISSIONS

The admissions process to Jeanne Jugan Residence usually begins with a conversation with our Admissions Coordinator. We will discuss the following:

  • Your current needs and health concerns
  • Your current living situation
  • Your age and financial eligibility
  • You and your family’s hopes and expectations concerning our Home.

Through this open dialogue, we hope to learn if your needs will be met here at Jeanne Jugan Residence. If there seems to be a good fit, we send you an application. Upon receiving a completed application, the Admissions Coordinator will schedule an interview.

If we feel that we are not able to meet your needs, we will be happy to suggest other facilities and resources in the community which may be helpful to you.

For more information about admissions, call 347-329-1800 or email bxadmissions@littlesistersofthepoor.org.

Services offered at our Home

Assisi Studio Apartments

The Franciscan heritage is kept in mind with Assisi Unit, where there are 30 studios. The Hearth is the center of the unit, the site of activities, visits, meals and gatherings around the fireplace or large TV.

Fatima Apartments

Seventeen one-bedroom apartments are available where Residents may do their own cooking or come to the “Brittany” dining room. Rent is on a sliding scale. Fatima Residents often act as volunteers in the Home. They manage the Residents’ store, the crafts shop and help with activities.

Jeanne Jugan Day Share Program

Elders are picked up and brought to our Home for meals and socialization. Their presence enlivens the Residence atmosphere and they find the nutrition and socialization helps them stay in their homes longer. Most of the time, they are not physically able to profit from local senior centers but do not need nursing care that would be given in a day center.
