Dunbar Village sits in a quiet Bay St. Louis neighborhood near the Oschner Medical Center - Hancock and shopping centers, with medical offices close by, and has been around since 1993 with a caring staff who know the residents by name and seem to genuinely like their work, and it's even got some cooks and kitchen workers that folks say are warm and attentive to the people living there. The place operates as a long-term care provider with different levels of care, including Independent Living, Assisted Living, Skilled Nursing, and Rehabilitative Care, so there are options for those who may want to live more independently or need more help as time goes on, and with 24-hour staff security, residents and their families do tend to feel a sense of safety and supervision. The Terrace at Dunbar Village is for people who need nursing care and help with daily activities, and it's certified for both Medicare and Medicaid, which can make a difference, while the Assisted Living section of the Courtyard is licensed by the Mississippi State Department of Health, so it's got its approvals in order, and those who come for rehabilitation after a hospital stay can get short-term care in a homelike setting with a dedicated therapy department on hand.
You'll find private and semi-private rooms, and the building's all one level, which can be easier to get around, with both memory care and adult day care for people who need more support during the daytime. The campus is tobacco-free and offers housekeeping, transportation, fitness, and recreation amenities, and family members looking after loved ones can get a break using respite care services for short-term stays. Dunbar Village is operated by SentryCare, Inc. and is also known in the nursing home category, and those seeking employment as CNAs, LPNs/LVNs, RNs, or experienced caregivers may find work opportunities here. The place gives medication and treatment as doctors order, and focuses on maintaining well-being for seniors in a supervised but welcoming environment, with staff helping with daily tasks and memory care as needed.
The community offers virtual tours, which can help families see what the place looks like without coming in person, and it has gained the Eden Alternative's highest rating for elder care and a reputation for award-winning care, which some might find reassuring. Dunbar Village acknowledges the changing needs of seniors and adapts care, promoting peace of mind for both residents and families, and as part of its culture, it works to follow innovative practices in line with culture change leadership, making sure people feel at home while still getting the help they need.
