The Dunwoody Difference

A special feeling starts when you enter the Village and stays with you wherever you go. It's a feeling of friendship, caring, respect and, above all, community. It means having the freedom and security to live life at your own pace. We call it the "Dunwoody Difference"...

It's about tradition... The 83-acres of land that now comprise Dunwoody Village were once rolling farmlands belonging to William H. Dunwoody, a Philadelphia businessman. Dunwoody envisioned a community for older adults based on the ideals of respect for life and kindness to our fellow man. In 1974, the board of trustees responsible for Mr. Dunwoody's will, broke ground on Dunwoody Village, a not-for-profit continuing-care retirement community. Today, Dunwoody Village fulfills Mr. Dunwoody's legacy, and is a community grounded in the ideals of caring, respect and kindness.

It's about choice... We believe that when individuals make the decision to move to a retirement community, they do so for a variety of reasons. Some want freedom from everyday chores; some want companionship; and some look for attentive care that changes as they change. At Dunwoody Village, we understand that unique individuals have unique needs and wishes. Our philosophy is that "It's your life, live it the way you want," and we work hard to provide a variety of living styles, levels of care, activities and facilities.

It's about commitment... The health and happiness of our residents is our top priority. It is the commitment we made in 1974 when Dunwoody first opened its doors, and we uphold that priority today. Each staff member is challenged to provide the best care available, and to adhere to our mission of respect, quality and safety. And in return, our residents are committed to sharing with us what they need. Together, residents and staff continue to make Dunwoody Village a better place.
