Countrywood Manor Assisted Living in Mantachie, MS provides two levels of residential care—Assisted Living and Memory Care—under one roof. Residents with early memory loss as well as those living with advanced dementia can remain on campus even as needs change. The community is prepared to manage wandering behaviors during the day or night, elopement risk, combative or other behavioral concerns, and residents who stay awake through the night. Clinical capabilities extend to wound management, oxygen therapy, and specialized diet oversight. The staff is trained to assist adults under 60 and to monitor complex diabetic regimens, including oral medications, insulin injections, and sliding-scale dosing.
Clinical oversight is delivered by a licensed nurse on-site 24 hours a day, backed up by an RN/LPN team and a PERS system that immediately contacts 911 when needed. Direct-care staff can provide full assistance with bathing, dressing, toileting, and eating. Mobility support ranges from standby help for walker users to one- or two-person transfers, Hoyer lift services, and full bed-bound care, allowing residents to remain in place as their physical strength changes. Continuous security staffing helps reduce risks linked to wandering or behavioral outbursts.
Apartments are designed for practical comfort. Many include a private bathroom and individual climate controls so residents can set their own temperature, although not every unit has both features. Maintenance and housekeeping services are available, minimizing daily chores and allowing residents to focus on recovery, socialization, and leisure.
Meals are served three times a day in a central dining area, with menus adjusted for physician-ordered diet modifications such as low-sodium, diabetic, or texture-altered plans. Staff members monitor intake and provide hand-over-hand assistance when needed, ensuring that residents with swallowing issues, dementia-related distractions, or full feeding requirements receive balanced nutrition.
The building is wheelchair-accessible throughout and offers an on-site barber and beauty shop for routine grooming. Scheduled transportation is available for medical appointments, shopping, and local errands, helping residents stay connected to the broader community without stressing about the logistics of travel.
