Madison County Nursing Home sits at 1421 E Peace St, Canton, MS, and offers a mix of care, with skilled nursing, assisted living, dementia care, and short-term rehab all under one roof, which makes things less complicated when care needs change. The place has a specialized Alzheimer's Unit, set up in 2002, with secure spaces for memory care that help keep folks safe, and there are individualized care plans that aim to fit each person's needs, which really matters because each person comes with their own story. There's staff around full-time, with roles like Director of Nursing, Activities Director, and a Healthplex Director, which means there's always someone available for help, activities, or health and fitness concerns, and the trained medical staff are there to handle both day-to-day support and skilled healthcare needs.
People living here have access to a Healthplex fitness center that even the public can use, and the building itself opened in 2000, so the equipment and facilities are fairly modern, with an indoor heated pool, weight room, ellipticals, treadmills, exercise bikes, a hot tub, and Cybex strength equipment, which is more than you'd expect at most senior communities. Wheelchair-accessible pools and dressing rooms make fitness and swimming possible for most residents. Activities are an important part of life at Madison County Nursing Home, and you'll find things like fitness classes, water aerobics, arts and crafts, gardening, religious gatherings, music, outings, and movie events, which all help keep people moving and involved, while allowing for interaction and making friends.
The outdoor track gives people a bit more freedom for safe exercise, and there are both indoor and outdoor common spaces for socializing. Residents who need hospice care, respite stays, or just short-term rehab have those options here, with help like bathing, getting around, transportation, and use of community spaces included. The facility also serves food through a dietary department, and the focus on full activities and personalized care means people aren't just sitting around-the days have structure and social opportunity.
All in all, Madison County Nursing Home aims to provide a homelike environment in Canton with a variety of care and activity options, secure dementia care, physical support, and daily routines, and it stays open 24 hours a day for peace of mind.
