A sense of home and family is key to the care of the aged here at Mullen Home. All of our services are focused on creating a home-like atmosphere to give our Residents the care they need.

What makes Mullen Home unique?
The Sisters’ love is at the heart of their service. The Little Sisters strive to create and maintain a place where all are treated equally and with love. They inspire the wonderful spirit which radiates from every corner. It is a true Home, not just a place to live, work, or volunteer. The Little Sisters of the Poor live in the Home and are available to the Residents twenty-four hours a day, seven days a week.
The Staff are truly an extension of the Sisters' hands and hearts. The gifts they bring to their duties are what help us maintain our Family Spirit. A staff of over 100 professional men and women support the Little Sisters’ attentive care and selfless mission.
Benefactors have been a vital and treasured part of our family. Without their generous and continual support, we would not be able to meet the operating costs of the Home.
Volunteers have openly offered their hearts and heads in service to lighten the Sisters’ task in meeting the many needs of the aged. A workforce of over 100 regular volunteers annually supports the Home’s operations.
