New Athens Home is a facility with strong tradition of Christian care and love. Our resident rooms are decorated in warm colors and each bed has a beautiful hand made quilt to give it that "homey" feeling. Daily housekeeping and laundry keep our residents with fresh clothes and our facility odor free.

The New Athens Home Women's Auxiliary comprised of members of varous area church groups, are very active in fund raising for the advancement of the Home and the care of the residents. Our staff of trained individuals provide "around the clock" services for the residents in our 53 bed Skilled Care Facility.

The New Athens Home proudly fulfills all the many requirements of the Illinois Department of Public Health and is Medicare and Medicaid Certified.

Every New Athens Home Resident has a customized personal care plan designed to meet their individual needs and preferences. We review these plans with families and work with loved ones to ensure a positive and productive transition to our community. Moving is difficult, even in the best of circumstances, so we commit ourselves to helping families through the process from start to finish. We will work with your hospital discharge planner, Medicare and/or Medicaid administrators and insurance company to smooth the way and reduce the strain on your family.
