Poughkeepsie Journal – 153-year-old Poughkeepsie nursing home fights off closure, will open adult day care program
The Vassar-Warner Home will reopen in 2025, but its services will assist the senior community in a new way.
The senior living center, housed inside an 1835 Greek Revival building on Hamilton Street that has served the Poughkeepsie community for 153 years, was scheduled for closure in October 2024 and its residents were moved to other facilities.
After a months-long fight to keep its doors open, the grassroots effort Save Vassar Warner, led by family and friends of the home’s residents, has pivoted to a new service model.
