Heritage Woods of Freeport

Our community provides a wonderful alternative to a nursing home or to those struggling alone at home. Among the services included in the surprisingly affordable monthly fee are three restaurant-style meals each day, plus snacks; housekeeping and laundry services; health monitoring; nursing assessments; help with medications, and assistance with activities of daily living.

Designed for adults 65 and older who need some help to maintain their independence, Heritage Woods is located on more than five acres of property on the southwest corner of West Pearl City Road and south Forest Road in Freeport.

Heritage Woods of Freeport is certified to operate through the Illinois Supportive Living Program, which enables the community to serve older adults of all income levels.

The community was developed through a partnership between Gardant Management Solutions, the largest provider of assisted living in Illinois, and the Stephenson County Nursing Center Foundation.

Financial assistance is available for those who do not have the resources to afford the monthly fee. Older adults who are on Medicaid or who only receive Social Security benefits can qualify for residency.

The emphasis at our community is on providing residents with the Love, Compassion & Dignity they deserve and on helping each resident maintain as much independence as possible for as long as possible.
