Annandale Care Center, a 60-bed skilled nursing facility, opened its' doors in 1982. In 1984 the Care Center added an ancillary service wing to provide space for physical, occupational and speech therapy inpatient and outpatient services and also added a garage. In 1991 the garage was converted to a chapel and two detached garages were built. In 2004 Annandale Care Center went through an extensive remodeling including changing double occupancy rooms to single rooms and adding private rooms. Today we have 16 single rooms 6 private rooms and 19 double occupancy rooms.

In 1986 Heartland Express was started as an alternative transportation method for the elderly and disabled. This transit company was sold in 2007 to River Rider and still operates in Annandale today.

Centennial Villa was built in 1987 to provide senior housing to independent persons 55 years of age or older. This building is connected to the Annandale Care Center by a link. Meals can be purchased for a fee and light weekly housekeeping is provided. 22 apartments consisting of eight two bedroom, two large one bedroom and twelve one bedroom apartments are available. Due to an overwhelming response for assisted living services, these apartments also offer assisted living.

Centennial Villa Assisted Living/Memory Care was built in 2000. 7 apartments were designated as memory care apartments with a secure entrance and special memory care services, 23 apartments; three two bedroom, nine large one bedroom and eleven standard one bedroom apartments are available for assisted living. In 2002, two individual apartments within the memory care unit were converted to double occupancy thus allowing a total of 9 persons to reside within the memory care area.

In July of 2008 Centennial Villa opened three Memory Care cottages in a separate building connected to the Care Center.  These three cottages house up to 12 people and replaced the memory care apartments within the assisted living building.  The cottages are designed as a household with separate bedrooms with private bathrooms.
