Historical note

The first three residents moved into Wesley Manor at Frankfort, Indiana on November 13, 1961. Wesley Manor Village, begun in 1968, was one of the first independent living facilities for the aged anywhere in the state of Indiana.

Since 1961, Wesley Manor has grown from 33 acres to a stunning 83 acres with a beautiful drive lined with cherry trees and charming landscaping. Not only has there been land expansion over the past 55+ years, but activity options have been enhanced to create a more active community. Wesley Manor is a place to call home for residents and future residents to be on the go and enjoy retirement living.

Unlike some companies which are owned by investors and managed by other companies, Wesley Manor is part of a family of Continuing Care Retirement Communities that are affiliated with BHI Senior Living.
