Methodist Specialty Care Center

Methodist Specialty Care Center in Flowood, Mississippi is a 60-bed facility that provides long-term specialized care for severely disabled patients whose medical needs are too complex for traditional nursing homes. The center serves people who have severe brain or spinal cord injuries and need around-the-clock care. Typical residents are younger than traditional nursing home patients. Our nurse-to-patient ratio is much lower than traditional nursing homes, with each nursing station caring for 30 residents, rather than the usual 60. To make Methodist Specialty Care Center look more like a home than an institution, the building's design features short, carpeted passageways, rather than hospital-like corridors. This design reduces the distance between the nurses stations and the residents rooms. Please call 601-420-7760 or e-mail jrobertson@mmrcrehab.org if you would like to receive more information about Methodist Specialty Care Center. Since our beginnings in 1975, Methodist Rehabilitation Center has been a leader in rehabilitation research and providing services to people with neurological and orthopedic illnesses and injuries. Methodist is the first hospital in the state to be named one of America's best hospitals by U.S. News and World Report. And we're one of only 16 hospitals in the country designated as a Traumatic Brain Injury Model System by the National Institute on Disability and Rehabilitation Research. Our goal at Methodist Specialty Care Center is to continue our proud tradition by providing a caring environment that enriches the health and well-being of residents and their families and respects the unique contributions of each individual. Residents are encouraged to strive for the highest level of independence possible, and every effort is made to fulfill their clinical, social and spiritual needs.
