Compere's Nursing Home sits at 865 North Street in Jackson, Mississippi and has room for up to 60 residents in private and semi-private rooms, and though the building is all on one level, it has a nice spacious layout that's pretty easy to get around which can really help folks who use wheelchairs or walkers, and you'll find it's got an emergency generator too, so if the power ever goes out folks aren't left in the dark. The facility provides long-term care along with short-term rehabilitation and caters to those who may need nursing care or help with everyday life, covering a wide range including things like assisted living, memory care, and even respite options if someone only needs care for a little while, and they can accept Medicaid to help pay for services.
The staff includes a licensed nursing home administrator and a director of nursing, and there are regular visits from doctors and podiatrists as well as affiliate dental care services onsite for convenience, which means residents don't have to make big trips out for basic checkups. There's attention to details like monthly medication reviews by a pharmacist to make sure the medicines are right and safe, and there's lots of support for folks dealing with things like diabetes, dialysis, catheter care, ostomy, IV therapy, and all the regular tasks like pain management, incontinence help, wound care, and even hospice and palliative care for when health gets more serious.
Everyday life at Compere's includes meals planned and approved by a registered dietician so folks get the nutrients they need, and residents can enjoy free DIRECTV in their rooms, plus access to an in-house beauty and barber shop for a haircut or a bit of pampering without leaving the building. There are daily scheduled activities that keep people active and connected with one another, whether that's games or group gatherings, offering chances to stay sharp and social. For people needing extra support with getting back on their feet or who have trouble moving, the facility's got in-house therapy services like physical, occupational, and speech therapy, and there's help with strength, balance, and restoring everyday skills.
Families can look through photos online and set up tours to see the community in person, meet staff, and find out more about daily life and how the care levels fit their needs. The nursing home offers a warm, caring setting with amenities you'd expect, working to help residents have the best quality of life they can, no matter what their health or needs might be.
