Continuum of Care

The interconnected Welty properties make it easy for people to move from home to an apartment or townhome to an assisted living or nursing home – and back – as their needs change.

Independent Living

All Welty apartments are designed for people who want to live independently but appreciate the added comfort and security of our apartment buildings.

Assisted Living

Welty Home offers all the privacy, security, and comfort of your own home – and so much more. It’s the perfect option for people who cherish their independence but need a little extra help.

Long-Term Care

Good Shepherd Nursing Home has earned a five-star rating from the U.S. government for all or part of each of the 12 years of the government rating program.

Short-term Therapy

Good Shepherd Therapy helps short-term patients recover and return home quickly.

A Home for Every Need

All the Welty properties are located within the same leafy residential area in Wheeling, West Virginia, a community noted for its small-town charm and excellent quality of life.

Welty offers distinct care for different stages of senior adult life. One exceptional advantage of this continuum of care is that those who are a part of the Welty family have priority if their needs change and they require the services available at another Welty facility.
