Havens At Pensacola sits in a quiet area and offers outdoor walking paths and garden spaces where people can relax and think, and the place keeps a big focus on open, green areas and simple comforts, so you'll find furnished rooms with private bathrooms, kitchenettes, cable TV, phones, Wi-Fi, and air conditioning, and folks can enjoy movie nights, arts and crafts, music programs, and even help organize some of the activities themselves. The dining room has a professional chef who prepares meals for special diets like allergies or diabetes, and there's a library, fitness room, movie theater, and lots of common spaces meant for visiting or quiet time. The facility's been serving seniors since 1939, but moved to a newer building in 2001, still working as a non-profit run by Ascension Sacred Heart and Methodist Homes for the Aging, so they stay focused on providing solid care without trying to make a buck.
Havens At Pensacola has both skilled nursing care and memory care units, and the memory care staff receive special training in dementia and memory disorders, making sure people with Alzheimer's or similar problems have a safe, familiar environment with daily routines. There's support for bathing, dressing, getting around, and taking medicine, plus transportation and parking, regular housekeeping and laundry, and help when moving in. Outings happen often to help keep boredom away and encourage friendships, and family gets involved in care planning, making sure everyone stays in the loop.
Skilled nursing covers help after illness, surgery, or hospital stays with 12-16 hour nursing staff present, and folks can get long-term care, respite stays, or hospice care too, because they try to cover many needs-even pain management, wound care with a full-time wound nurse and a CRNP, palliative care for tough illnesses, psychiatric services, IV therapy with PICC lines, cardiac care, orthopedic rehab, post-surgical help, diabetes education, tracheostomy care, and restorative therapies. The care team includes geriatric doctors, nurses, therapists for physical, speech, and occupational needs, nutritionists, and respiratory therapists. Havens At Pensacola has 120 beds, is four-star rated, and will have 18 beds available in June 2025, and the place accepts Medicare and Medicaid. Every resident gets a personal care plan, daily activities, a 24-hour call system, safety features, and a hands-on team approach to care, so folks get the help they need in what comes across as a home-like community where comfort and well-being matter most.
