In Mexican culture, seniors are generally cared for by their family members; however, there are numerous cases where seniors have no family left or are abandoned. Life for seniors with no one to care for them is harsh and more often than not, these men and women end up on the streets, exposed to the elements. EL Buen Samaritano (‘The Good Samaritan’) is a 24 bed full care facility that is able to provide genuine loving care in the name of Christ to these seniors.
All physical, emotional and spiritual needs are met to the best of our caring staff’s ability, enhanced by visiting professionals who donate their time (local doctors, dentists, psychologists, massage therapists, hair dressers, etc) and by community members and foreign visitors who show their love by spending time and serving in various ways.
