Villa Nova sits in Brookhaven, Mississippi, at 528 Brookman Dr, and has served seniors for 31 years. The place focuses on elder care with a special design for those needing memory care or dementia support, offering housing and care for folks with Alzheimer's and other memory problems, and the staff does its best to reduce confusion and keep everyone safe. They offer assisted living and independent living, so some residents get help with things like bathing, dressing, and medication, while more independent folks enjoy a social environment with less hassle. The staff helps with daily activities, diabetic care, incontinence care, and even support with injectable medicines, and also offers physical rehab and hospice care.
Villa Nova's got several care homes onsite, such as New Dawn Retirement Center, Silver Cross Home, Shady Oaks Home-Elderly, and Serenity Personal Care Home, each providing residential care with live-in caregivers and a homelike setting, and there are home care options with aides for those who want to stay in their own home but need a hand with daily living or companionship. Some residents use the skilled nursing options for more medical support, and there are wheelchair-accessible showers and supportive features around the facility for comfort and safety. Meals get planned and prepared onsite, with vegetarian options and special menus for certain health needs, and some residents keep pets like cats or dogs.
There are plenty of on-site and off-site activities and field trips, devotional services both inside and outside, and a beauty salon for personal care. Full-time activity directors plan outings and events to foster social connection and personal growth, and communal and indoor common areas let residents gather and relax. Villa Nova opens from 8:00 am to 5:00 pm on weekdays, runs as a business with nursing and convalescent homes, and stands out for its long experience and caring approach, offering a calm, supportive spot for seniors needing various levels of help while promoting comfort and community.
