About Levering

Levering Managment, a local leader in senior care and senior living facilities in Knox County and surrounding areas for more than 50 years, has received recognition of its services from the local, state and national level.
“We’ve touched the lives of thousands of people over the years,” said William Levering, chief executive officer and president of the company.
Levering’s parents, Bruce and Joan Levering, started the company May 1, 1956, and opened Hillcrest Nursing Home in an area north of Fredericktown. They still sit on Levering Management’s board of directors.
Joan Levering said there were practically no nursing homes in the area in the 1950s. They saw a need, and believed the industry would develop in the future.
“My husband has always had a vision for the future,” she said.
Through a proclamation, Mount Vernon Mayor Richard Mavis recently honored the company for providing senior care and independent senior living services to local citizens, and for employing 200 residents of Mount Vernon and Knox County.
Bill Levering said the company employs over 600 people at its five facilities, which include skilled nursing facilities, a residential assisted living center and independent retirement living facilities in five counties.
