In the heart of Harvard, Illinois, at 210 E. Front St., Shepherd of Harvard combines the warmth of a historic home with the sophistication of modern assisted living. This charming residence is a sanctuary where seniors find safety, comfort, and joy amidst a vibrant community. Our team, celebrated for bringing laughter and joy into every day, ensures residents live their golden years to the fullest. Near the historic downtown, our residents enjoy easy access to local shops, events, and the natural beauty of McHenry County, making every day a new opportunity for exploration and enjoyment.

What makes this home special?

This 160 year old, 7,700 square foot Victorian home is one of the oldest buildings in Harvard, formerly serving as the town’s hospital. Now it is our most “chic” home, with lively decor and well-appointed furnishings. Shepherd of Harvard accommodates 14 residents, and features both private and semi-private rooms (subject to availability).

When a loved one comes home to live in a Shepherd Premier Senior Living residence they join an intimate community of 10 to 16 residents. We believe “smaller is better” when it comes to senior care — an opinion informed by our own experience with the other guys. Rather than a sense of guilt, you can know that mom or dad is enjoying life in an environment similar to home, with a small group of people that will fill their days with engagement, laughter and the joy of belonging. We create an atmosphere that is engaging, supportive, safe and secure. By choosing Shepherd Premier the story doesn’t end, a new chapter begins!
