"If you continue to do what you've always done, you'll continue to get what you've always got." -Babe Ruth
Resident life at Mercy House is all about change and getting better results. We are not a "cookie cutter" organization. Each family and individual has different needs and we strive to meet these needs holistically.
Each individual completes a service strategy plan through which they examine their education, job skills, life resources, personal hygiene, emotional health, physical and dental health, social relationships, childcare needs, spiritual needs, time management, legal issues and diversity abilities.
Residents set goals in each of these areas as needed and, with their case manager, set priorities and make a plan for those goals to be met.
Many opportunities are available to those who have needs. Mercy House provides for or arranges for prescription eyeglass lenses, dental care, medical needs, driving lessons, GED preparatory classes and exams, training through Massanutten Technical Center and Blue Ridge Community College, psychotherapy, gas vouchers and donated cars.
