In 1957 Hunter Carlyle Perry created Martha Jefferson House with the intention of making a retirement home for seniors needing assistance in their daily living. Over the years it has grown into a community within the House where assistance comes to you- Independent, Residential or Assisted Living - As your needs increase, we meet those needs right where you live. Our shared purpose... "Martha Jefferson House is ALL about our Residents. it's their home and it's our pleasure to care for them". Here for your family. Here for you.
