Lawrence County Residential Care Center accepts Medicaid and Medicare.
Lawrence County Residential Care Center is a 30-bed residential care facility at 915 Carl Allen Street, Mt Vernon, Missouri, operated by Lawrence County Nursing Home District and administrated by Russell Newby. The facility operates as a 24-hour skilled nursing and rehabilitation center with designated memory care units, offering nursing care, physical therapy, and specialized services for residents with cognitive decline.
Operational strengths are evident but limited in disclosed detail. The facility maintains a doctor on staff and 24-hour staffing with skilled nursing capability. Rehabilitation services, a beauty salon, housekeeping, maintenance, and dietary services are programmed components. Dietary services are managed by a specialized team preparing individualized meals tailored to resident needs and preferences.
Memory care units are designated for residents with dementia or cognitive decline. The facility accepts both Medicaid and Medicare, providing payment flexibility for qualifying residents. Operating hours are 24/7.
The facility’s inspection profile shows zero routine inspections from the Missouri Department of Health and Senior Services, Division of Regulation and Licensure compared to the Missouri state average of seven, which could indicate a recent opening or limited survey activity relative to comparable Missouri residential care facilities. Without access to the complete inspection record and detailed staffing breakdown, families cannot assess regulatory history or identify any substantive compliance issues. The zero-inspection finding requires clarification regarding the facility’s age, licensure status, and operational standing before consideration for placement.
The walk score of 53 reflects moderately walkable surroundings; some services are reachable on foot, though most daily needs will require transportation. Mt Vernon’s proximity to regional healthcare resources and available accessibility are relevant considerations for families evaluating placement.
Missouri residents may access multiple payment assistance programs, including Medicaid A&D Waiver, Supplemental Nursing Care, Structured Family Caregiving Waiver, MO HealthNet Aged/Blind/Disabled, Medicare Savings Program, Caregiver Program, and Veterans Aid and Attendance. The facility accepts Medicaid and Medicare.
Families should ask about memory care programming and staffing details, occupancy, licensing, inspections, quality metrics from Lawrence County Residential Care Center.
