Sunny Acres Nursing Home is a beautiful senior care community nestled into the picturesque Sangamon River valley in Petersburg, Illinois. We take great care of our seniors with individualized attention from our compassionate staff and the expertise that comes with decades in the service of seniors.

Gone are the days of cold and stark nursing homes. At our community, we’ve created a safe and healthy place for seniors to enjoy their next stage of life. We have an aviary full of beautiful, happy birds that entertain our residents. The courtyard boasts a walking path that takes you through the lovely plants and flowers. During the summer season, you might even find some fresh ripe strawberries and cherry tomatoes to eat.

At Sunny Acres, we strive to provide person-centered care for the seniors in our area. We know that a continued quality of life is essential to our seniors and their families. We encourage independence, dignity, and respect for each senior as well as the highest possible level of skilled care.
