The Grove
The Grove offers assisted living and independent living in Columbia, MS. Assisted living includes help with daily tasks such as dressing, bathing, and medication while a resident keeps a private living space; independent living offers private living with community services and no daily care.
Having both care levels can suit someone who wants independent living now and may later need help with daily activities without leaving The Grove. The community has 86 beds.
Residents can eat at the restaurant-style dining area without leaving the community, while outdoor spaces offer places to spend time outside. Rehabilitation services are also available for residents who need that support.
A Walk Score of 56 means the area is somewhat walkable, with some errands possible on foot. Someone who no longer drives may still be able to walk for certain nearby needs.
Medicaid and Medicare are accepted payment sources. Medicaid may help a family whose savings may not cover a long stay, while Medicare can help with eligible covered medical services.
Michael Bradshaw serves as the administrator.
