Providing quality care for seniors has been a passion of the Chur family for three generations. The legacy began with Robert R. and Mary Chur, who operated Aurora Park Health Care Center, a nursing home in East Aurora, New York. Their son, Robert M., started his career there as Administrator. In 1978, Bob and his wife, Carol, founded Heathwood Health Care Center in Williamsville. Today the company is owned by their daughter, Carla Suero, President and CEO, who has played key roles in the family business since 1994.
In 2013, 17 facilities were sold, along with the corporate name Elderwood Senior Care. The original name — Heathwood — was adopted as a tribute to the Chur family’s heritage and ongoing commitment to quality care.
For as long as residents make Heathwood their home in Buffalo and Rochester, NY, we make it our daily mission to ensure they live in a place of comfort and compassion, dignity and respect. A third generation of caregivers now leads our unwavering dedication to exceptional senior living. Our company continues to thrive because of our passion for excellence, our belief in teamwork and our reverence for every individual entrusted to our care.
