Covington Ridge

100 Covington Ridge Place, Collins, MS 39428
Overview of Covington Ridge

In Covington County sits Covington Ridge, a 36-bed assisted living and independent living community at 100 Covington Ridge Place in Collins, Mississippi. Hank Lott owns the property. A somewhat walkable pocket of town is where the community lands, earning a Walk Score of 49. Some errands are reachable on foot, but most still call for a car.

Two hospitals give the area a measure of acute-care coverage nearby: Lawrence County Hospital and Pearl River Community Hospital. For families weighing proximity to emergency or specialist care, that’s a meaningful detail. A smaller-town setting is what Collins offers overall, tucked into the southeastern part of the state rather than near a metro center.

Thirty-six beds puts Covington Ridge on the smaller end of the spectrum. Scale like this often means staff have more room to know residents individually, a tradeoff some families weigh directly against the broader amenity sets that larger communities can offer. Owner-operated and modest in size, Covington Ridge fits families looking for a straightforward, community-scaled option in Covington County rather than a large campus setting.

Overview of Northview Villa Personal Care

Barbara Hancock owns and operates Northview Villa Personal Care, which is a 40-bed community located in Laurel, Mississippi, that offers assisted living, independent living, and memory care in one place. The community is located at 625 Northview Drive in Jones County, and it stays near the South Mississippi Community Hospital for any urgent medical needs. Because Laurel has a walkability score of 54, residents and their families can easily walk to some local places to run errands without needing a car for every single trip.

Personal care is the most important part of life at this community, and because residents receive help 24 hours a day, they have support during every part of the week. Since therapy services are provided on-site, residents can receive rehabilitation and wellness care without having to travel across town. The community also offers memory care, which provides the same level of support to residents who need more structure and attention, all while letting them stay in the same place instead of moving.

The daily calendar focuses on music, cooking, and exercise, which helps residents stay connected throughout the week instead of just joining in on rare occasions. Residents can also use the scheduled group transportation to go to appointments and outings, meaning they do not have to rely on a family member’s schedule to get around. By hosting cultural events and cooking classes, the community creates social opportunities for people to come together for reasons that go beyond just meals or medication.

If you would like to tour the facility, it is open Monday through Friday from 9:00 am to 5:00 pm, and Saturday visits can be arranged if you make an appointment. This schedule shows that it is a smaller, hands-on operation where the owner is involved with the building, rather than just being managed by a large, distant company. For families in Laurel who need personal care, memory care, and independent living, Northview Villa offers all those choices under one locally run roof.

Overview of StoneRidge of Farmington

StoneRidge of Farmington has been owned by the same family since it started, and it runs a small community with 30 spots for assisted living and memory care on Cr 106 in Corinth, Mississippi. Because the neighborhood has a “moderately walkable” score, residents and their families can handle some errands on foot, though they will still likely need a car to travel further. Since the community only has 30 beds, it stays small on purpose, which usually means the staff members know the residents by their first names instead of just their room numbers.

Nursing help is available all day and night, and respite care offers families a way to get help for a short time without having to move their loved ones in permanently. Memory care is the main focus at StoneRidge, and it comes with specialized Alzheimer’s care and an emergency call system for residents who might need quick help or who tend to wander. The community also includes a beauty salon, which offers a nice, personal touch that might seem small but really helps people feel good each day.

The staff keeps a regular schedule of planned exercise and therapy activities, which gives residents plenty of chances to stay active and socialize without needing to leave the grounds. With its small size and strong focus on memory support, StoneRidge of Farmington seems like a great choice for older adults who have Alzheimer’s or other memory needs, especially for families who want steady, hands-on care from a staff that stays the same.

Overview of SummerHouse Bay Cove

SummerHouse Bay Cove sits on the waterfront in Biloxi, Mississippi, about 8.5 miles from the city center in Harrison County. The 142-bed community, owned by Biloxi Opco I, LLC, offers assisted living, independent living, and memory care under one roof. A Walk Score of 6 means most errands call for a car rather than a walk.

Staffing runs around the clock, and respite stays give families a short-term option when they need one. Memory care operates through a named track called GLOW Memory Care, so that population has a defined program rather than a generalized approach folded into standard assisted living.

The rest of daily life is organized into branded programs. Sensations covers dining, Celebrations runs activities and events, and Dimensions handles health and fitness. Connections manages transportation, Impressions covers housekeeping and maintenance, and Expressions Concierge takes on day-to-day requests. A Military Veterans Program rounds out the offering, worth noting for households with a service background.

Three levels of care under a single roof, paired with round-the-clock staffing and this many named programs, points to a community built for continuity. A resident could move from independent living into assisted living or memory care without changing addresses, which is the kind of structural detail that matters most for families planning years ahead rather than months.

Overview of The Goldton at Southaven

Set on Star Landing Road E in Southaven, Mississippi, The Goldton at Southaven combines assisted living and memory care under one roof. The 101-bed community sits in Desoto County, owned by Shaven 1818, and the surrounding area is car-dependent, carrying a Walk Score of 12. Getting around by foot has real limits here, so most residents and visiting family will rely on a car for errands.

The location has one clear advantage: proximity to major medical care. Southaven sits near Memphis, and Methodist Healthcare Memphis Hospitals and St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital are both within reach for families managing specialized treatment alongside daily support. Inside the community, licensed nurses and certified nursing assistants provide coverage around the clock, and respite care is available for families who need short-term relief from caregiving duties. A veterans benefits program rounds out the offerings for residents who qualify.

Between the memory care option, continuous nursing coverage, and a veterans benefits program, this community fits families weighing both structured daily support and specialized cognitive care, particularly those who want quick access to regional hospital systems if a resident’s needs become more complex.

Overview of Villa South Assisted Living

Fifty beds and a secured layout define daily life at Villa South Assisted Living, a community set in Florence, Mississippi. Somewhat walkable at a Walk Score of 48, the neighborhood still puts most errands within driving distance rather than an easy stroll. Apartments come in private or companion configurations, each with its own climate control and utilities already covered in the arrangement.

Memory care sits alongside standard assisted living support here, backed by staff who are present around the clock. The activity calendar runs toward the social side: exercise sessions, live entertainment, art and games, plus daily housekeeping so residents aren’t managing that themselves. A beauty salon and barber shop operate on-site, and meals are described as home-cooked, a detail that separates the dining approach from a more institutional catering setup.

Scheduled transportation covers the gaps for residents who need to reach appointments or errands around Rankin County. Presbyterian Rankin Medical Center and Central Mississippi Medical Center sit nearby, putting acute hospital care within reasonable reach. Villa South, Inc. owns and operates the community. Between the secured setting, personal-care amenities, and continuous staffing, this is a fit for older adults who want daily supervision and support close at hand, memory care included.

The Orchard

600 South Pear Orchard Road, Ridgeland, MS 39157
Overview of The Orchard

You will certainly need a car for most outings because the area has a Walk Score of 3, even though the facility is about 1.6 miles from the city center and is located at 600 South Pear Orchard Road. Jackson Metro owns this 106-bed place in Ridgeland, Mississippi, which was built with the goal of letting people stay in one home even when their needs shift over time.

Because the facility has memory care, assisted living, and independent living, families can change a loved one’s level of care without moving them to a different place entirely. Although residents are able to choose from social gatherings, spiritual options, and wellness classes, the day is anchored by restaurant-style food, which is paired with support services that keep the daily calendar full of activities.

Families who are looking for a place for a parent to live for many years will find that the next step of care is located just down the hall, which saves them the stress of having to move, even though respite care and rehab stays are offered for shorter periods. This building was made so that people do not have to leave when they get older and need more help from the workers who stay there every single day and night to provide support for every person.

Overview of Community Development Inc Assisted Living I

Thirty beds sit behind Community Development Inc Assisted Living I’s address on North Front Street in Richton, Mississippi. Owner Oma Hibbler runs the personal care home, which serves Perry County from a Walk Score of 45 neighborhood. A resident’s family running errands on foot will manage a few, but most trips still need a car.

Respite care gives families a short-term option when a caregiver needs a break, and on-site rehabilitation supports residents recovering from illness or injury. Transportation is included among the amenities, easing trips residents can’t make on foot given the walkability score. Adult day care runs alongside the residential program, so a family isn’t locked into full-time placement if day-only support fits better.

Perry County families looking for a small, owner-run home rather than a large campus will find that fit here.

Frequently Asked Questions about Assisted Living in Mississippi

What's the difference between assisted living and memory care in Mississippi?

Assisted living in Mississippi supports residents with daily activities (bathing, dressing, medication management) while preserving independence. Memory care is a specialized form of assisted living for residents living with Alzheimer's or dementia, and adds 24/7 secured environments, dementia-trained staff, and structured routines designed to reduce confusion and wandering.

What's the difference between assisted living and a nursing home in Mississippi?

Assisted living in Mississippi is a residential model focused on housing, hospitality, and help with daily activities. Nursing homes (skilled nursing facilities) provide 24/7 medical care from licensed nurses for residents with significant health needs, and are regulated more strictly under both state and federal CMS rules.

Does Mississippi Medicaid cover assisted living?

Mississippi Medicaid does not directly pay room-and-board for assisted living, but most states (including Mississippi) offer Home and Community-Based Services (HCBS) waivers that can offset the cost of care services delivered inside a licensed community. Eligibility, waitlists, and covered services vary — check directly with the state Medicaid agency.

What is assisted living?

Assisted living combines private or semi-private apartments with help on activities of daily living (meals, bathing, dressing, medication management) and a social calendar — for residents who need some support but do not need 24/7 medical care.

How many assisted living facilities are listed on this page?

This page features 156 assisted living facilities in Mississippi. Use the filters and comparison tools above to compare ratings, amenities, and pricing.

How do I choose the right assisted living facility in Mississippi?

Start by matching the level of care offered to the resident's current and anticipated needs, then compare licensing status, staff-to-resident ratios, recent inspection results, and pricing. Tour at least two or three communities in Mississippi, talk to current residents and families, and confirm what is included in the base rate versus billed as add-on services.

What should I look for when visiting assisted living facilities in Mississippi?

Pay attention to staff interactions with residents, cleanliness and odor, food quality at meal times, the activity calendar, and how questions about pricing and care plans are answered. Ask to see the most recent state inspection report, the move-out / level-of-care-change policy, and a sample monthly bill that lists every fee.
