St. Catherine’s Village Is Leading The Way In Skilled Nursing With Comprehensive, Compassionate Care

St. Catherine’s Village, Madison’s preeminent Life Plan Community, offers three areas of skilled nursing to provide person-centered care at its best. Currently, a limited number of rooms are available for new residents.

Located on the gorgeous St. Catherine’s Village campus, Siena Center has been voted best nursing home in Mississippi multiple times thanks in part to its protected living environment that fosters dignity and self-worth. Residents receive comprehensive, round-the-clock skilled nursing care, supported by physician oversight and medical attention. In addition to continuous RN coverage and an exclusively RN nursing administration, a nurse practitioner is on site Monday through Friday, and a medical director visits weekly. Each resident’s treatment is personalized and supervised by a physician who tailors care to individual needs.

Beyond person-centered medical care, skilled nursing at Siena Center emphasizes social, intellectual, spiritual, and emotional well-being. In-house social workers and activities coordinators enrich residents’ lives through a variety of engaging activities led by dedicated professionals seven days a week. The culinary team promotes a wide range of menu options with a focus on choice, nutrition and flavor. A full-time dietitian ensures a healthy diet tailored to residents’ preferences.

Skilled nursing at St. Catherine’s Village is licensed and regulated by the Mississippi State Department of Health for 120 beds and the community maintains a staff-to-resident ratio that exceeds state requirements. Featuring all private rooms, skilled nursing at St. Catherine’s Village accommodates residents in comfortable and caring setting.

Utilities except telephone and Internet are included in monthly fees as is regular housekeeping. Wheelchairs and assistive devises are available for use and chaplain services are offered for all. 24-hour security also is provided.

Connected to Siena Center is the newest building on the St. Catherine’s Village campus, Tuscany. The state-of-the-art building provides 36 private skilled nursing rooms—each with its own bath—in a household model that promotes a homelike feel, which decreases overstimulation and allows residents to stay more easily oriented.

For those struggling with memory loss, skilled nursing is offered at Hughes Center where 24 private bedrooms with in-room showers are available. Specialized care plus sensory-stimulating and enriching activities help preserve the quality of life for residents with dementia or Alzheimer’s disease so they can age in place more comfortably.

Skilled nursing is one stage of care at the all-inclusive Life Plan Community of St. Catherine’s Village. The gated property is located on 160 picturesque acres and 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 CCRCs.

With a dedicated staff and a mission-focused environment, St. Catherine’s Village provides the right care at the right time for individuals age 62 and older. Other living options are independent living in apartments and garden homes, assisted living in Marian Hall, memory care in Campbell Cove, and skilled nursing with memory support in Hughes Center.
