Jackson Memorial Perdue Medical Center

Jackson Memorial Perdue Medical Center sits as a government county facility with 163 certified beds and has been operated by the Public Health Trust Of Miami Dade County Florida since 1973, with leadership from Mark Knight and Myriam Torres for many years now, and what you'll notice is there's a team of doctors guiding care and hands-on nursing services with a daily nurse hours-per-resident of 4.89, which is higher than the state average, and with a nurse turnover rate of 20.9%-that's well below Florida's average-folks tend to stick around longer, bringing some comfort in knowing experienced hands deliver the care, and even though the facility is committed to providing good care, it has faced inspection deficiencies related to care quality, resident assessment, and planning, like in areas marked F0867, F0641, and F0656 on the reports, which means oversight and regular checks are part of life there. The center offers skilled nursing care, rehabilitation therapy, memory care, and palliative services, and it goes beyond, too, providing outpatient clinics for things like neurology, cardiac, wound care, and podiatry, as well as aquatic therapy for people dealing with fractures and injuries, and the programs include community-based adult day care for seniors who want to stay at home, with transportation, activities, personal care, and meals also available, which makes things easier for families. You'll see they focus on patient comfort here, with modern renovations, big outdoor spaces for walks and fresh air, wellness activities, and areas set up for both outpatient and inpatient needs, and while it's affiliated with St. John's Nursing Center and St. John's Rehabilitation Hospital and Nursing Center, the facility also has state-of-the-art technology, special departments, and staff that aim to deliver care for mental and physical health problems, including psychiatric services. The nonprofit center supports a warm community feeling but always keeps the care professional, and people come here for specialized care, insurance and Medicare coverage help, or private pay options, with some families choosing services for seniors at home. The entrance walkway is wide and easy to find, and their website lists extra information about services for those who want to look it up.
