The Misericordia Family Association communicates with Misericordia families predominantly via email. Maintaining good email etiquette and security is an important part of this process. Phishing is the fraudulent practice of sending emails or other messages purporting to be from friends, family, or reputable companies or organizations to induce individuals to reveal personal information.

The 2026 Benefit Book was mailed to donors of $300 or more approximately 10 days before the Benefit. Due to unexplained delays by the US Postal Service, some donors have not yet received their book.
As we continue to investigate, you may pick up a copy at Thome Reception and/or click here for a digital copy.
If you have any questions, please email Patty Ramirez at

Social Services would like to follow up with a reminder that we are still collecting information on outside dentists who can work with the special needs population. The Misericordia Dental Clinic can currently accommodate only one annual cleaning for current residents, and there is a waiting list for all new admissions this year. If you work with a dentist you trust, who serves your family member well, we would greatly appreciate it if you could share that information with Social Services. We can then provide referrals to Misericordia families who need additional dental visits for their loved ones.
Please include the following details:
