D'Youville Life & Wellness Community

D'Youville Life & Wellness Community Each person who comes to D’Youville – whether a resident, client, tenant, or employee – is supported in this way, with respect, dignity, and compassion.

Since 1960, D'Youville Life & Wellness Community has been dedicated to offering exceptional elder care to Greater Lowell and surrounding areas, earning the trust and respect of our community and peers. Founded in 1960 by the Sisters of Charity of Ottawa, D’Youville has earned the trust of the community and the respect of its peer organizations for providing area seniors with superior care. We provide a continuum of care to meet the changing needs of seniors:

- Short-term rehabilitation and transitional care
- Adult day health care
- Specialized Alzheimer’s and other dementia-related care
- Long-term nursing care
- Hospice care
- Independent living at Bruyere Gardens, our affordable housing community

We have expanded our services with the opening of D’Youville’s Center for Advanced Therapy, a 33-bed short-term rehab/transitional care facility in the spring of 2012. D’Youville is led by a team of dedicated professionals who are passionate about their vocation and who share the vision that the Sisters of Charity had in creating a place where Greater Lowell’s aging population could be cared for with compassion and dignity. D’Youville recognizes that the whole person needs care – that the spiritual self is permanently entwined with the physical self and, as such, should be nurtured and sustained with the same attention as would be given to the body.

The Carmelite System believes faith in all its forms shines as a beacon of hope. As Yom Kippur begins, we join our Jewish friends and neighbors in a day of reflection, prayer, and renewal. May this sacred time bring peace, forgiveness, and blessings to you and your loved ones.

From Mother Angeline’s vision in 1929 to the community founded in 1931, the Carmelite ministry has flourished—shaping loving, person-centered care across the nation and beyond. “Be kinder than kindness itself to the old people” remains our everyday standard. Now, we’re taking a moment to look at Foundation Day, which we celebrated earlier this month. You can learn more here: https://ow.ly/JQBG50X17pT

🌍✨ Assisted Living Week = Ageless Adventures! ✨🌍

From a virtual triathlon in Norway to cooking class in Sweden, rock climbing in New York to a toga party in Greece, and even salmon fishing in Alaska, we “traveled” the world in one week! 🧳💫 Residents explored new places, tried new foods, and shared so many laughs along the way.

We also celebrated our amazing staff with treats and surprises every day, after all they’re the heart of our community. 💙

What an unforgettable week of adventure, joy, and togetherness! 🎉

Today, we joyfully celebrate 96 years of grace, compassion, and dedicated service by the Carmelite Sisters for the Aged and Infirm. We honor our founding in 1929 by the Venerable Mary Angeline Teresa McCrory. Her enduring vision — that “the difference is love” — continues to guide our mission of providing care rooted in dignity and faith. As we mark this Foundation Day, we honor the legacy that lives on in every life we touch.

This Labor Day, we honor the hands and hearts behind The Carmelite System.
The Carmelite Sisters and our dedicated staff have been a living testimony that labor, born of love, is never in vain. Our foundress, Venerable Mary Angeline Teresa, reminded us to “Care for the elderly with the compassion of Christ.” This spirit continues to uplift us and our mission on Labor Day – and every day.

On this Feast of the Assumption, we honor the Blessed Virgin Mary, taken body and soul into eternal glory. Her Assumption reveals the deep truth of our faith, that death is not an end, but a passage—and that every life, including the lives of the sick and aged, is sacred. Mary, in her humility and grace, has gone before us, showing the way.
May this holy day renew our hope and remind us of the beauty in every stage of life.

At the LCWR 2025 Assembly — Atlanta, GA
Hope in Motion. Mission in Action.

Today, The Carmelite System and Carith Ministries joined hundreds of women religious and ministry leaders at the Leadership Conference of Women Religious to open a sacred space for dialogue, discernment, and action. For us, this gathering is more than a conference—it’s an opportunity to share the vision of Carith Ministries, preserving Catholic healthcare and elder care ministries, and ensuring that the difference is love remains at the heart of our service.
