About us
Grass Home
Grass Home has been a leading long-term care home in the Moncton community for over 35 years. With a history rooted in family, Grass Home knows the importance of a warm and welcoming community. At Grass Home, our team works to be an extension of your family and is always eager to enrich the lives of our residents.
Our philosophy
Our mission is to assist each individual resident to achieve their highest potential and well-being.
We know that caring for a senior loved one can have a large strain on time and emotion, and that is where our Grass Home team comes in. With varying levels of care, we pride ourselves on allowing families to unload the emotional stress by providing worry-free, personalized care for their loved ones. We work hard to know this is a place our residents are happy to call home.
Humble beginnings
How Grass Home Started
Mrs. Joyce and Mr. Neil Grass founded the original Grass Home in 1984. Mrs. Grass, a registered nurse, set out to create a space for seniors to spend their last years in the comfort and peace they would find in their own homes. For 14 years, Mr. and Mrs. Grass took care of seniors within their community and pioneered a new way of caring for them without giving up lifelong enjoyment or medical care.
In 1998, their son John and his wife, Lynn, purchased and took over Grass Home, showing that caring for their community is a passion and a philosophy.
We continue to thrive
Grass Home Today
John and Lynn Grass have brought their expertise, hard work and many years of combined experience to create homes unlike others in the Moncton area. John comes from a professional commerce and science background, while Lynn is a registered nurse with 11 years of experience in various medical fields. Together, John and Lynn ensure all Grass Home staff are qualified with up-to-date certifications so that Grass Home residents can trust they are receiving expert care.
John and Lynn strive to make every day memorable at both the Grass Home locations. From bringing their two golden retrievers for hugs and kisses and thinking of new ways to enrich the lives of residents, this is more than a job for the married couple; it’s a way of life.
