About Brooks-Howell Home 

Owned and governed by United Methodist Women through the Women's Division of the General Board of Global Ministries of The United Methodist Church, Brooks-Howell Home is open to retirees and staff of the Women's Division, missionaries of the former National and World Divisions (now the General Board of Global Ministries) and others approved for residency.

 

Brooks-Howell is a HOME. Residents, primarily deaconesses and missionaries, are a diverse and stimulating group who have served God through service to others around the world. They bring reflections of many cultures which enhance life and activities in the community.

 

Independent living for singles and couples is available in one and two bedroom apartments, two room suites, single rooms, and a cottage. Each unit has been tastefully decorated by Brooks-Howell. Residents may bring personal furnishings which help them feel "at home."

Activities and programs are designed to maximize individual response and participation with leadership coming from a Residents' council and staff. Spiritual development, social activities and cultural events are planned into program opportunities.
 
Health care services, under the direction of registered nurses and a medical director are recognized in the community and by regulatory agencies as being excellent. Physical, occupational and speech therapy services are available in-house. Brooks-Howell's outreach ministry makes health care beds available to persons who are not otherwise eligible for residency.

 

The motto of Brooks-Howell Home is:  Called. Served. Serving Still.
