Join Our CCRC in Winchester, VA

As a National Lutheran Community, The Village at Orchard Ridge is a not-for-profit organization, which means all of our financial resources are invested in residents and the communities where we live and work. Because we don’t owe anything to shareholders, we can focus solely on our mission: NLCS honors, inspires and supports choice and opportunity in partnership with older adults.

What does this look like in practice?

  • Peace of mind for residents: Because older adults living in our community are the only reason we exist, our focus is on you, not on our return on investment. While not-for-profit organizations do need to make money to operate, the money you spend with us is directly invested in the maintenance and operations of our community. Our financial resources are here to serve you — through opportunities, exciting events, and upgraded amenities, after paying for overhead. In buying into a retirement community, you make a responsible choice for you and your loved ones interested in senior living in Winchester, Virginia.
  • Investments in our team: Since our community is not driven by profit and does not face the pressure of meeting a high return on investment, we are mission-driven, and we prioritize ethics, quality and social responsibility. For residents, that means our community is built around service. We are here to enable you to explore more, do more and live more fully. To achieve this, we promote a culture of hospitality among our team, so we invest in the best people with bright attitudes and go-getter personalities. We also recruit incredibly skilled talent for our health care services to make sure you have the best of care, in addition to the finest service.
  • Investments in the community: We are proud of our history as a retirement community in Winchester, Virginia. This region is a great place to live and work, raise a family, and build a life for yourself. We love it here, so we are proud that as a not-for-profit organization with a philanthropic arm, we can support other organizations and causes in the area, in addition to offering financial support for families in need. The Village at Orchard Ridge is a ministry, and we are here to serve.
  • Discover peace of mind from our health services: As a retirement community, we are here to give you choice as you age as well as the convenience of being able to stay in one community no matter what your health care needs may be: independent living, memory care and long-term care. We also offer skilled rehabilitation so you will have peace of mind knowing you will be taken care of should your needs change.
