Mercy Medical

Mercy Medical offers a range of senior care services in a faith-based, non-profit setting, meaning people can find help from assisted living and memory care to skilled nursing, rehabilitation, and hospice care, all linked under the Mercy Medical name and tied to the mission of serving others with compassion. This place has deep roots, started as a convalescent home, and grew to offer more services over the years, including things like home health care, adult day care, independent and assisted living options, and special programs for people living with Alzheimer's or memory issues, plus they've got specialized rehabilitation, everything from acute therapy to outpatient rehab and subacute rehab. It's set up as a continuing care retirement community, so residents can move through different care levels as needs change without leaving familiar surroundings, whether they need a senior apartment for independent living, help with personal care, help with daily chores like laundry or meals, or more advanced nursing or memory care. The memory care community and several assisted living communities focus on safety and support, recognizing that specialized care often costs more, particularly for Alzheimer's and dementia. Mercy Medical also has fully sprinklered buildings for fire safety, offers medical services and supplies, and stays active with things like resident and family councils. They accept Medicare and Medicaid and run as a church-related group connected to the Sisters of Mercy and Catholic Health East, keeping a focus on the healing ministry of Jesus Christ and aiming to be a leader in caring for the whole person-mind, body, and spirit. The Daphne, Alabama location provides home care, while the campus in Fairhope houses the Mercy Medical Hospice. The facility doesn't run inside a hospital and isn't owned by a chain of operators, choosing instead to keep close ties to the community. With 106 beds but 57 residents, they've got room for new people, and they offer the full line of services common to nursing homes, including respite care and long-term care. The amenities cover basics like meal programs, housekeeping, and laundry, and the staff's focus stays on meeting healthcare needs in a caring way that's been part of their history for decades.
