Memory Care Living: St. Catherine’s Village Unveils Re-opened Wing at Campbell Cove

St. Catherine’s Village, Madison’s preeminent Life Plan Community, is excited to announce that it is re-opening a wing of its award-winning Campbell Cove building to make a limited number of residences available to seniors who would benefit from Memory Care.

Campbell Cove provides a protected, calming and homelike environment for those facing cognitive challenges from Alzheimer’s disease, dementia and other forms of memory loss. The newly opened wing has 12 furnished private bedrooms along with a common living room and dining area. Now, Campbell Cove will be able to accommodate a total of 36 Memory Care residents.

In total, Campbell Cove has three color-coded wings, each serving as a small yet distinctive neighborhood to foster familiarity. At the same time, the common spaces permit family-size gatherings. The three wings converge at a large multipurpose area with an arts and crafts room, recreation center, country kitchen, and living room. This layout offers residents a blend of private and communal spaces, allowing for personal time while also providing the option to engage in various activities.

Specifically designed to support individuals who are easily confused and wander, the floor plan features wayfinding cues and clear circulation paths to guide individuals and help them navigate more easily from one place to another. The building’s architecture also minimizes obstacles, enabling residents to preserve their independence as long as possible.

Outside are secure landscaped patios and a walking garden so residents and their families can spend time outdoors in a recognizable and protected setting.

Care is activity-focused with the goal of promoting involvement and engagement through an array of stimulating activities and familiar sensory experiences. Scheduled events and entertainment along with spontaneous interactions reinforce cognitive and physical functioning, thus helping residents maintain their independence. These activities…which range from social to cultural, recreational to spiritual…enhance the quality of life for those living in Campbell Cove.

All staff members at Campbell Cove are specially trained in a social model of care, providing compassionate and nurturing assistance while supporting each resident’s capabilities and affirming their dignity. Caregivers take a holistic approach and adapt the environment to meet the changing needs of residents as they progress through their journey. This person-centered programming has earned Campbell Cove “Exemplary” recognition.

Campbell Cove is licensed by the State of Mississippi as an “Alzheimer’s Assisted Living” property. Monthly fees include three meals a day; coffee and refreshments; supervision of self-administered medications; assistance with activities of daily living such as bathing, dressing and grooming; 24-hour professional nursing staff; utilities except telephone and internet; weekly housekeeping and linen laundering; and 24-hour security.

Unparalleled services, amenities and care are the hallmarks of not only Campbell Cove but all of St. Catherine’s Village. Located on 160 acres in Madison, it is the first retirement community in Mississippi to earn accreditation by CARF-CCAC. This “commitment to excellence” seal signifies that the campus exceeds the standards established by the only international accrediting body for Continuing Care Retirement Communities.

The private, gated community boasts wooded grounds, protected and beautiful outdoor spaces, a caring staff, on-site resident-centered nursing care, and a mission-focused environment for adults age 62 and older. As a Life Plan Community, St. Catherine’s Village provides the right care at the right time through independent living in apartments and garden homes, assisted living in Marian Hall, memory care in Campbell Cove, and skilled nursing in Hughes Center, Siena Center and Tuscany.
