A Little Bit About Shepherd of Harvard
We all want to belong somewhere, have the support of those around us, have someone to sit with us and hold our hands or comfort us when we need it.

Our Harvard Community
Harvard, a cozy community of 9,119, is cradled among farmers’ fields and stables about six miles South of the Illinois/Wisconsin border. In this rustic setting, Shepherd Premier Senior Living has completely renovated a 156-year-old, 7,300-square-foot Victorian Independent Living Home. The renovation included upgrading with sprinklers throughout and installing a state-of-the-art security and monitoring system.
The result is a home that offers a peaceful lifestyle where your loved one(s) can catch their breath and yet find engaging activities that will fill their lives with the relaxing pleasures of rural life. They can rest on the wrap-around porch and lanai in the spring, summer and fall or enjoy a book by the fireplace in the winter. They can also go out in the community where, in Harvard, there is plenty to do.
Comfort, Security and a richly rewarding lifestyle: Amenities at our Harvard Assisted Living Home
Along with sprinklers, security and monitoring systems, Shepherd Premier Senior Living’s Harvard Assisted Living Home has 12 private rooms, 3 semi-private rooms, 5.5 bathrooms (2 of which are ADA compliant) and an elevator.
