Primarily short stays
Residents typically stay for brief periods, with frequent admissions and discharges throughout the year.
Most new residents arrive under private pay (69% of admissions), and a typical private pay stay runs around 2 - 3 years.
Miona Geriatric & Dementia Center has provided long-term care for over five decades from its 88-bed campus on Poplar Street in Ideal, Georgia. Four Winds Investment Company owns and operates this facility, which mainly serves residents who stay for more than a year. The business office accepts private pay and traditional federal Medicare. Even though most people move here permanently, the nursing staff also takes in patients who just need a few weeks of short-term rehab to get back on their feet after a hospital stay.
The surrounding rural neighborhood is car-dependent, meaning visitors will need a vehicle for trips. On the floor, an on-site doctor handles medical needs directly to limit outside clinic appointments. The nursing team provides an average of 3 hours and 34 minutes of daily care per resident, using a 24-hour shift schedule of registered nurses, licensed practical nurses, and nurse aides. This care model supports physical, occupational, speech, and restorative therapies, alongside dedicated mental health services and end-of-life hospice care.
Public code surveys focused on dietary protocols and infection-control practices around the building. Management resolved these specific inspection findings and updated its floor routines to maintain standard public health compliance.
Interested individuals can call the main office to see if any rooms are available, ask how the dementia care track is set up, or book a time to tour the campus.
Miona Geriatric & Dementia Center is administered by Cathy Green.
In Georgia, the Department of Community Health, Healthcare Facility Regulation Division conducts unannounced inspections to ensure facilities adhere to state health and safety requirements.
