A community gathering at sunset
Our mission

Care that meets every chapter of life.

Our mission is to deliver clinical expertise with compassion — serving the people of the Chatham Valley with inpatient care, rehabilitation, and an Adult Day Healthcare program that supports independence at home.

At Barnwell Care Center, we believe a great care community does three things well: deliver expert clinical care, treat residents and families with dignity, and stay deeply rooted in the community it serves. Whether you need round-the-clock skilled nursing, focused short-term rehabilitation, or a place to spend your days while still living independently — we are here, in the heart of Valatie, ready to help.
