Our Roots.
Providence Point is sponsored by Baptist Homes, one of the most respected senior living providers in Western Pennsylvania.
For nearly 100 years, The Baptist Homes Society has dedicated itself to being a compassionate source of support for the citizens of the greater South Hills community. A not-for-profit charitable organization, Baptist Homes was founded in 1910 by a cooperative effort of 90 American Baptist churches to provide services to both orphaned children and older adults.
Today, Baptist Homes serves more than 300 adults of all faiths who require assistance because of age, illness or disability. Baptist Homes provides a continuum of health care, residential, and supportive services on its Mt. Lebanon campus and within the community.
