Washington Care Center

1920 Lisa Drive Extended, Greenville, MS 38703
Overview of Washington Care Center

Washington Care Center answers to a Greenville, MS, address with memory care, nursing home care, respite care, and skilled nursing licensed to it. Both nursing designations carry a continuing need for nursing support. Memory care watches over a resident inside a secured setting, wandering being the risk it answers. Respite care hands a family a short stay while the usual caregiver is travelling or getting well.

Short-term rehab appears in the services for the weeks after an illness, injury, or a stay in hospital, without turning into a permanent placement. The licence covers 60 beds.

The fit is supervised memory care, or short-term care while a primary caregiver is elsewhere. A Walk Score of 62 puts some errands within a walk, so a few destinations stay reachable by somebody no longer driving. Medicaid, Medicare, and private money are the three accepted routes. Debra Johnson administers the center, and Properties, LLC operates it.

Frequently Asked Questions about Memory Care 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.

Does Mississippi Medicaid cover memory care?

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.
