Your Home Away from Home
With almost 33 years of experience and over 200 locations, BeeHive Homes is a leader in the assisted living and memory care services. BeeHive Homes is a senior living home in a residential setting. Uniquely designed, their senior living services offer residents more access to personal care. By keeping their homes smaller with professional, skilled caregivers, the residents can have their needs addressed personally. BeeHive Homes truly believe that in order to provide the very best care for their residents, they must get to know them well and discover their individual needs.
BeeHive Homes, Inc., is the #1 assisted living franchise in the nation. BeeHive Homes was founded in 1987 in Meridian, Idaho, by Twain Walker. It was in response to a very limited number of quality care facilities available at an affordable price. And that is the big thing: affordable price. BeeHive Homes of Marion falls under BeeHive Homes of Mississippi with 11 facilities in the state. The location in Marion was chosen due to the need in the area.
Many people get the impression they can’t afford to come to BeeHive. Not only will they house, love, and take care of your loved one, they will help improve their quality of life, and do so with rates that are
the lowest in the industry. And the monthly rate never changes even if the client’s needs increase. They offer personal care with private suites and bathrooms. Assisted living, memory care, and respite services are available. Daily living assistance, medication assistance, three home cooked meals plus snacks, daily housekeeping and laundry. They can also provide transportation to and from doctor appointments.
Melba Reed, Director of Operations for MS Franchise says, “One unique thing about BeeHive is the home environment. Our goal is when you walk through the front door, you immediately see that this is not a facility, it’s not an institution, but a home. Our staffing to resident ratio is one of the lowest in the industry. We see our residents every few minutes all day long. We spend more time with them than we do with our own families. So, if they are having an off day or aren’t feeling well, we immediately know it. Most of the time when residents move in, it takes 10-12 days to adjust and then they start to thrive. They quickly see why BeeHive is called the best of the best.”
Navigating during COVID has been a real challenge. Nationwide the virus has affected the long-term care industry with decreasing census but increasing expenses. BeeHive still has the lowest rate in the region with immediate availability. “We belong to the chamber to help get our name out there and help advertise the services we offer. One of the best things that can happen is when we get a referral from a resident or family member of a resident. That speaks measures in itself. Another is many times when we have people that move in, you quickly realize you are the only family they have. When you can be there for them in their golden years, you know you have chosen your career wisely,” Reed concluded.
