History
Arnett Pritchett Place operates within a beautiful brick building located in the Chevy Chase neighborhood. The home was established in 1935 with an endowment from the estate of Arnett Pritchett to serve elderly ladies of the Fayette County community. In 1955, a new home was constructed at the current Duke road site. We are recognized as a pioneer in giving recognition and services to the elderly.
