Our Lady of Perpetual Help is a nonprofit, nondenominational senior care community sponsored by the Catholic Diocese of Richmond. Since 1998 we’ve provided unparalleled, person-specific care and senior services within our assisted living, nursing care, and Christopher Center (memory care) residences.

We provide each resident with personal attention, a wide range of healthcare services, a full schedule of activities to inspire passion and purpose, luxurious amenities, and a comfortable, homey community setting.

We’d love the opportunity to speak with you to see if we would be a good fit for you or your loved one.

Mission

Our mission is to enhance the quality of life for each resident through personalized attention and care. We believe in preserving dignity through personal choice, respect, and understanding in a comfortable and welcoming environment that brings joy and fulfillment to those who live and work at Our Lady of Perpetual Help.

Coordinated Services Management

Coordinated Services Management, Inc. (CSM Senior Living Management) was founded in 1981 by Mary Elyn and Robert McNichols.  CSM was created out of a deep commitment to providing professional management of the not-for-profit senior living communities being developed by the affiliate company, McNichols and Associates — now known as MA Senior Living Design.  The mission of CSM is to improve the lives of seniors, provide access to affordable and safe housing and provide compassionate, high-quality care.

In 2024, CSM Senior Living Management and MA Senior Living Design transitioned to new owners, Denise White, President (team member since 1983), and Dave Rawlings, Executive Vice President (team member since 1997).  Denise and Dave bring more than six decades of combined executive experience in community operations, regulatory compliance, solid financial strategy and results, and leadership and staff development.  Their hands-on leadership, work ethic, and unwavering commitment to advocating for others constitute the driving force behind the company.  They believe in the intrinsic value and dignity of all community members, including residents, staff, family members, Boards of Directors, community partners, volunteers, and neighbors.  Both CSM Senior Living and MA Senior Living Design continue to thrive and provide high-quality management and development services to the communities managed by CSM Senior Living.
