Overview of Brandon Court

Owned by Jaquisa Dawson, Brandon Court operates as a 50-bed skilled nursing community located on Burnham Road in Brandon, Mississippi. The front office manages accounts through multiple standard insurance channels, accepting Medicare, Medicaid, and private pay. For individuals checking out the property, the surrounding neighborhood is car-dependent with a walkability score of 20 out of 100, meaning visiting relatives will generally need a personal vehicle to run quick errands or reach the campus.

Operational metrics show that residents stay at the facility for an average of 100 days, pointing to a daily workload centered around short-term post-acute therapy tracks rather than traditional multi-year placements. To maintain medical supervision across all shifts, the 24-hour clinical rotation logs an average of 4 hours and 6 minutes of total nursing care per resident each day. This shared workload involves registered nurses, licensed practical nurses, and certified nurse aides who handle physical checks and medication tracking.

Government records from public health agencies compile the property’s regulatory inspection history. The documented archive files show that the administrative team runs its everyday nursing operations and clinical charting within state guidelines, keeping the home’s long-term cumulative citations-per-inspection rate at zero.

Older adults have access to private or semi-private rooms, a therapy gym, hydrotherapy spa spaces, and landscaped grounds. The dining room serves meals prepared fresh under the supervision of a certified dietitian to match standard health restrictions.

Overview of Dunbar Village Terrace

At 725 Dunbar Ave in Bay St. Louis, Mississippi, Dunbar Village Terrace runs as a nursing home that also covers assisted living and memory care under one roof. The building is single-story, 60 beds, split between private and semi-private rooms, and it’s been open for 33 years now. L. Ivey administers the facility day to day.

The neighborhood’s Walk Score comes in at 39 out of 100, somewhat walkable, so a resident’s family might manage an occasional errand on foot, but most trips still mean getting in a car. Occupancy tells a different story: 95%, with 57 of 60 beds filled, which is high by most standards. The average stay runs about 111 days, roughly three and a half months, long enough to suggest this isn’t a facility built around one narrow type of resident. It’s handling a mix: people recovering from something acute, and people who need nursing care for the longer haul.

Registered nurses, nurse aides, and licensed practical nurses each contribute daily care time, with nurse aides putting in the most hours per resident of the three. Medicaid, Medicare, and private pay are all accepted, which matters a lot for a family trying to figure out how to actually pay for this. Transportation services and fitness and recreation programming round out what’s available on-site, so getting to an appointment or staying physically active doesn’t require leaving the property. On the regulatory side, state inspections here have tended to center on things like medication management, dietary and food service, and staffing and staff credentials rather than anything touching direct resident care.

Put the pieces together and what emerges is a nursing home running near full capacity, staffed across all three core nursing roles, and open to every major way of paying for care. That combination points to a facility built to handle both shorter rehabilitation stays and residents who need nursing support over the longer term, all under one roof.

Stone County Nursing & Rehabilitation is a privately owned, 59-bed skilled nursing facility that focuses on short-term rehabilitation, skilled nursing care, and specialized memory support. The property operates with an average resident stay of 76 days, serving an intake population heavily balanced between private-pay sources (52%) and Medicare (47%). Local utilization remains stable with 50 active residents, representing a 78% occupancy rate. To sustain its 24-hour clinical coverage and daily therapy offerings, business logs show that the operator devotes 59% of overall revenue to payroll, relying on external contract labor for 58% of its total operational hours.

A look at recent state health department databases reveals substantial front-line personnel depth and high marks for routine compliance, though permanent resident quality tracking shows some clinical gaps. Direct nursing coverage averages 5 hours and 21 minutes per resident daily to run 24% ahead of the Mississippi state average, ranking the facility 22nd highest out of 110 homes statewide. Routine oversight checks show strong regulatory compliance, with recent inspection performance tracking 41% better than state benchmarks.

Clinical profiles reveal mixed outcomes across different resident groups; short-term rehab charts display excellent emotional well-being metrics with zero reported depressive symptoms and standard fall-prevention rates, while long-stay resident files log elevated rates for pressure ulcers, urinary tract infections, and the use of antipsychotic medications.

Families researching regional post-acute rehabilitation programs or dedicated memory care options can examine these public health tracking data to review the property’s baseline. Since the official records show above-average daily nursing hours, strong regulatory compliance scores, and excellent short-term emotional metrics alongside chronic care tracking challenges, the documentation details a resource-heavy facility well-aligned for brief physical recovery needs.

Mississippi Medicaid does not directly pay room-and-board for memory care, 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.
