Established in 1972, Shepherd of the Valley-Niles is viewed as the heart of the Shepherd family.  A non-profit retirement community, Shepherd of the Valley-Niles offers a true continuum of care, offered in a scenic wooded setting.

Shepherd of the Valley-Niles provides affordable independent living apartments with social activities, an activity center, and scheduled transportation.  Two levels of assisted living care without the extra charges include help with medication from reminders to administration, nutritious daily meals, special diets, social activities, personal care, and housekeeping, all included in the monthly rate.

An active social calendar offers entertainment for our residents.  Our independent residents attend and host numerous activities in the Club House and the staff  organizes many events throughout the year.  Follow the link above to the Community Events page and read about the 4th Annual Car Show and the upcoming 14th Annual Holiday Craft Show.

Renew your spirit in our Chapel.  Our pastoral care staff is trained to meet your spiritual needs through worship, Bible study, and pastoral counseling.

The Niles community has a deep sense of family because of the continuum of care.  Often, residents make their home in the independent apartments and move through the levels of care as their needs change.  Many have made their home with us for 10 or 20 years.  Need we say more about tradition?
