Nazareth House is owned and run by the Sisters of Nazareth, a Catholic religious order of nuns which was founded in England in 1857. We strive to uphold the Core Values of our foundress, Victoire Larmenier, in all that we do here at Nazareth House. We have a board of management and employ a team of full-time managers to care for the medical, financial and technical well-being of the home.

We also run a clinic for over fifteen hundred patients from the local community.
