Artman Home
We are a faith-based organization with a rich tradition of compassion, offering Personal Care, Short-term Rehabilitation, Skilled Nursing and Hospice Care. For nearly 100 years, Artman has recognized and supported the unique physical, emotional, social and spiritual needs of older adults. Our services and our commitment to the highest quality of care give family members and physician’s confidence in complete care for each of our residents. Artman is committed to making a positive difference in your life and the lives of those you love through our full-time, full-service compassion and care. Our home is your home. Artman has a rich and long history that began with the dream of one man almost a century ago. Enos Artman was a wealthy Philadelphia carpet merchant, who had an amazing dream of providing a home for poor and deserving Lutherans of all ages and both sexes. Enos wanted to establish a place in the country that would appeal to Lutherans everywhere seeking different experiences such as a family camp, a small agricultural school for boys, a place of rest for business women cumbered with much serving, and a home in which older adults could live out their lives in peace and security. Unfortunately, Enos Artman died in 1912 before his vision was realized. However, his wife, Caroline Artman, managed to make her husband’s dream a reality when she opened Artman Home for Lutherans in Sellersville, Pennsylvania in 1916. In 1924, Caroline Artman moved the home from Sellersville and purchased the Haywood Mansion in Ambler, Pennsylvania. 20 residents moved into the mansion and lived there for more than 30 years tending to the gardens and harvesting the fruit trees. In the late 1950’s, a chapel, office, dining and reception rooms were added. Also built during this time was a new wing to accommodate 15 additional residents. Further expansions took place in the 1960’s, 1986 and 1994 to bring the total number of residents to 182. The 1994 expansion included a 61-bed nursing facility and the Becoming Center, a state-of-the-art health and wellness center. In 2007, twelve deluxe suites and the Mary Ambler Atrium were completed. Today, Artman has become a historical landmark and the largest employer in Ambler, Pennsylvania. We are known for providing compassionate, high quality care for residents of all faiths, counsel and support for family members and a demonstration of commitment and service to our surrounding communities as a faith-based leader.
