Antonine Village

My mother is going to Antonine Village for the trial week. Everybody is very nice there. It's clean. It smells good. There's a lot for them to do there. They go on outings. It's very nice. Everything's locked down. They have a KeyPod to get in and out. Their turnout rate for keeping staff is very good. This place was recommended by her geriatric doctor who has been there. They have three different places for activities. The rooms have showers within them. She'd have her own room. I heard the food is very good.

Being a resident of this facility for almost a year has been quite an experience. I decided to move back home from Maryland to North Jackson as this seemed to fill my needs. I like the location, in the rural area, with no high-rise buildings or busy roads. It is so clean, and peaceful. Everyone who lives and works here is so pleasant. The employees know your name! it feels so safe, I never felt threatened or afraid. I would 100% recommend Antonine Village to anyone to make their home away from home.

Our mother is a resident at Antonine Village. She has been there for 8 months now. And she loves it!! Her room is very spacious. She was able to bring her belonging from home to make her feel more at home. The Sisters and the staff are amazing. They all care for her and the other residents with such kindness. It is wonderful to be able to reach out to them at anytime to ask any questions or concerns about our mother. The residents get a weekly schedule of the different activities that they get to enjoy. Mother enjoys doing the different crafts, paintings, bingo, games, bible studies, and the special entertainment. Mother loves that they get together to say the rosaries each day and that she can attend Mass. She is able to have a Dr. see her here at the facility. So there is no need for us to have to take her out for her appointments. Within the facility they have a therapy room for her to go a couple days a week to get the exercise she needs. They have an onsite beautician, that mother gets her hair washed, cut, & styled. We are at peace knowing that our mother is safe and taken care of each day & night at Antonine's. If you are looking are an assisted living for your loved one, we highly recommend Antonine Village.

I highly recommend this home to send your loved ones to. I am still kinda new here being here for 6 months. This is a home away from your real home but your loved ones will have a new family here. Everyone is treated like family, even among us residents. We will celebrate your birthday and have activities to keep your mind working. Making friends can be easy. This is not like a regular nursing home. You have the privacy of your own room with a shower and a small kitchen area. You also have no bills other than your rent. They take care of everything. I retired from a nursing home 15 years ago. seen many very bad homes, some of them were shut down. This place has got to be the best in the state. Believe me whatever the cost, it is worth it. I am the youngest person here at age 70. I plan on staying for the next 20 years. This place can make you feel appreciated and loved.

We're choosing Antonine Village because it's close to me, and I have several friends that have loved ones there. The memory care unit is a locked facility, so they can't get out accidentally. My sister will be wearing a FOB that's registered to her; they'll always know who she is and where she is. We've paid the first month's rent, and we'll be on Medicaid. Her room used to be an apartment, and they have divided it into two. There's another lady that's actually in the bedroom. My sister will have the area that used to be the living room, which is quite large. I think it's going to be easier on her to be in a bigger space. She's afraid to be alone, and there's another lady right in the apartment with her, so I think that's going to be good. I have only seen 2-3 other places, and this one is much nicer. It's run by the Antonine sisters, which are nuns. They're all just kind and caring. They came over here specifically to open a facility for the elderly. They just have a real heart for the elderly. I met some of the nurses, and they were all so kind. It looks to me like they're keeping them pretty busy. They stay after breakfast, and they do some activities together. Then they have some time that they can go back to their room. They go back, and they do singing. It sounds to me like they keep them pretty busy, which I think is really good. Everybody that I've talked to has been happy with the food. This section of the place is like 5 years old, and it's beautiful. This is in the country, and I actually saw deer in the background. There's a gazebo, and there's outdoor areas. They're all fenced in, so that they can't get hurt. I just think it's beautiful. There's 24 people in the memory care unit, and that's a nice size.

Antonine Village is great, clean, the food is great, and I don't have any complaints at all. My mother loves the place. The staff is great; it's run by sisters. They have bingo on certain nights. They have a chapel so she can attend church there. They had a party on Saturday for Valentine's Day; they had live music, and she sent me pictures of what they did. They always have something to do: cards, bingo, dancing, the whole nine yards. It's expensive, but it's worth her security and her meals. I think the facility is four years old. It's nice, it's brand new, and the furniture and everything is clean.
