Having lived in Carthage for 3 decades, serving as a pastor and hospice chaplain for many of them, and having opportunity to visit in all of the nursing facilities in our community, I can honestly say that Carthage Healthcare is the one that I refer families to every time. This is the place that feels most like "home". You can feel a warm and caring atmosphere when you walk in the door. It is also great to see faces that have been around for years in the home - both residents and staff. I am very impressed with the current Administrator, Donna Howeth, and know that her leadership and her team help to make Carthage Healthcare a great place to live.
