As the cornerstone for great senior care on the South Plains and eastern New Mexico, Carillon is a self-owned, not-for-profit retirement community. Carillon was first created in 1975 with the idea that retirement and subsequent lifelong care could be a positive journey. In 1985, Carillon Foundation was formed as the fundraising and charitable giving office of Carillon, Incorporated. The Foundation’s unique mission is to accept charitable donations for the benefit of Carillon residents, family members and the citizens of West Texas. While resident fees support the annual operating costs for Carillon Inc., Carillon Foundation raises funds in order to provide the margin of excellence for care at Carillon and to benefit the larger community through support of research into healthy aging.

Our mission is to provide comfort care at the end of life. We believe that a life fully lived, no matter how long, should include an end-of-life experience of comfort, dignity, and peace. Our goal is to keep each patient as comfortable and independent as possible, while supporting the emotional and spiritual needs of our patients and their loved ones. We were the first non-profit Hospice in the area and one of the first 100 Hospices in the nation. Our founders were a group of dedicated doctors, nurses and community volunteers that began providing care to the dying on their own time. Our organization began in 1979 before there was insurance reimbursement for Hospice care and this dedication to our patients remains our culture to this day. Ionia Area Hospice approached Hospice of Lansing joined forces and a formal partnership was formed in 1984.
