As Little Sisters of the Poor, we care for the elderly poor in the spirit of humble service which we have received from Jeanne Jugan. We welcome the elderly as we would Jesus Christ himself and serve them with love and respect until death.

We have been serving the needy elderly of Evansville and the Tri-State area since 1882. The present St. John’s Home is located adjacent to St. Benedict’s Cathedral on Lincoln Avenue in Evansville, built in 1882.

St. John’s welcomes needy seniors of at least 60 years of age, regardless of race or religion. We provide a continuum of care in a home-like setting, including:

Independent Living Apartments (21 units), for individuals and couples capable of meeting their own daily needs.

Intermediate Care Nursing (47 private rooms), for Residents who receive complete assistance with their personal and medical needs 24 hours a day, by licensed, trained professionals.

Our Services include: Nursing and Medical Services, Pastoral Care, Recreational and Social Activities, Social Services, Dietary Services, and Laundry and Housekeeping Services.
