Welcome
HERITAGE WOODS OF MT. VERNON IS THE ONLY AFFORDABLE ASSISTED LIFESTYLE COMMUNITY IN JEFFERSON COUNTY.
The community, which is designed to serve adults 65 and older of all incomes who need some help to maintain their independence, is located on south 42nd Street, east of I-57 and south of Highway 15 in the south central Illinois community of Mt. Vernon.
Heritage Woods provides a wonderful alternative to a nursing home or to struggling alone at home for older adults. It is especially designed to benefit those who do not have the financial resources to afford market rate assisted living.
The community, which opened in June 2007, is managed by Gardant Management Solutions, the largest provider of affordable assisted living in Illinois. The community is owned by Hunt and Bill Bonan of Peoples National Bank and Market Street Bancshares.
A Wonderful Alternative
Situated on property immediately south of the King City Professional Plaza, the two-story building houses 66 private studio and one-bedroom apartments, each with its own kitchenette, spacious bathroom with shower, and emergency response system.
Certified nurses assistants are on-duty 24 hours a day, seven days a week to provide the personal assistance needed by residents. They work under the direction of the community’s licensed nursing staff.
Residents have the opportunity to enjoy the companionship of friends and neighbors and participate in social and recreational activities.
The emphasis at our community is on providing residents with the dignity they deserve and on helping each resident maintain as much independence as possible for as long as possible.
