St. Joseph Residence is a faith-based assisted living and long-term care provider in New London, Wisconsin, serving seniors and their families with a continuum of services including assisted living, memory care, skilled nursing, short-term rehabilitation, and personal care. Located at 107 E Beckert Rd, the community offers independent and assisted senior apartments, with a mission rooted in compassion, dignity, and respect for all individuals regardless of background. Since 1967, the organization has been dedicated to caring for the community, originally established by the Religious Hospitallers of St. Joseph and now sponsored by Catholic Health International. The facility serves residents across New London and surrounding rural areas, providing holistic care that supports the body, mind, and spirit.
The community traces its origins to 1929, when Catholic Sisters from Canada arrived to operate a 13-bed hospital in New London. By 1967, the need for expanded senior care led to the acquisition of the Clara Nee Nursing Home, which was rebranded as St. Joseph Residence. Over the decades, the campus has grown to include multiple residential and care facilities, such as The Washington Center, Trinity Terrace, and Monarch Meadows, each designed to meet diverse senior living needs. Staff are trained to deliver personalized care with integrity and compassion, supported by experienced leadership and licensed nurses available 24/7. The organization emphasizes a culture of kindness, reliability, and inclusivity, guided by Catholic health care values and a commitment to service without discrimination.
St. Joseph Residence is situated on E Beckert Road, approximately a half-mile from ThedaCare Medical Center and Abraham Park, and within a short distance of US Highway 45 and State Highway 15. The location places it near key regional infrastructure and community resources, including Emanuel Evangelical Lutheran School and Mill Street, facilitating access for residents and visitors alike.
The facility has served New London for over five decades, earning recognition for its long-standing dedication to senior care and its role as a trusted provider in the region.
