Our Mission

Our mission is to nurture the healing ministry of the Church by bringing it new life, energy, and viability in the 21st century. Fidelity to the Gospel urges us to emphasize human dignity and social justice as we move toward the creation of healthier communities.

Our core values are the guiding principles of Franciscan Villa. All of our policies and practices receive direction from these values.

Reverence is respect for all creation. We encourage and seek diversity; we are dedicated to care for the whole person — body, mind and spirit; we are committed to community service.

Integrity embodies moral wholeness and trustworthiness. We encourage openness in communication; we promote justice and honesty in all actions.

Compassion calls forth a feeling of empathy with others. We are sensitive and responsive to the needs of others; we are especially concerned about the poor, vulnerable, dependent and underserved.

Excellence is outstanding achievement and virtue. We participate in continuing education programs; we reward innovative ideas and healthy risk-taking; we identify and reward best practices in our staff and volunteers.

Franciscan Villa is an active member in the Catholic Health Association, Wisconsin Catholic Health Association, American Association of Homes and Services for the Aging and Wisconsin Association of Homes and Services for the Aging. It is our policy to provide service to all qualified applicants or service recipients without regard to race, color, national origin, gender, religion, age or disability.
