Connecting with Our Community, One Smile at a Time


June 26, 2025
At Hickory Creek of Athens, community involvement is at the heart of who we are. We take great pride in being an active and supportive presence—not only within our facility but throughout the greater Athens area, especially when it comes to connecting with fellow seniors who make our community so vibrant and special.



Whether we’re hosting fun and meaningful events in-house or joining the excitement at local senior centers, our team is always eager to show up with helping hands and warm hearts. You’ll find us leading lively games of bingo, digging into creative tabletop planting projects, or simply enjoying a good laugh during an old-fashioned ice cream social. These shared moments are more than just activities—they’re memories in the making.



But our commitment doesn’t stop there. We understand that the transition into long-term care can be overwhelming for families. That’s why we’re dedicated to being more than just a care provider—we’re a trusted resource. Our team offers support, education, and a listening ear for those navigating the journey of placing a loved one in skilled nursing care.



At Hickory Creek, our mission goes beyond the walls of our building. We strive to be a friendly neighbor and a compassionate partner in care, strengthening the bonds of our community by showing up with intention, joy, and deep compassion. Because when we come together, everyone thrives.

If you’re looking to make a difference, we invite you to get involved and become part of our extended family! Whether you’re interested in volunteering your time, sharing a special talent, or simply spending time with our residents, there’s always a place for you at Hickory Creek of Athens.
