Mercy Senior Services
Mercy is committed to helping older adults stay active, healthy and independent.
Independent Living and Skilled Care
Independent Living
Home Health – Provides skilled, physician-ordered services to help patients manage acute, chronic or life-limiting illnesses in the home.
Home Infusion – We know you are more comfortable in your own home, so our Home Infusion clinicians administer infusion medications to reduce or limit your time in the hospital.
Hospice – When faced with a terminal illness, Hospice Care provides expert home care. Hospice Care is also available to patients in nursing homes, independent living and assisted living facilities.
In-home Services or Private Duty Nursing – To help you stay in your own home as long as possible, we offer homemaker, respite care, personal help and private duty nursing.
Mercy Lifeline - Lifeline is a personal emergency response system which links you to 24-hour help at the push of a button. Move freely around your home or yard with confidence. If you need help— Lifeline will call for it!
Mercy Medical Supply – provides home health equipment and service to the greater Springfield area including free delivery and set-up.
Share the Care - An innovative, community-based approach to caregiving that empowers individuals to form care groups to help someone in need.
Vial of Life - The Vial of Life program is a free program for anyone, making personal medical information quickly available in the event of an emergency. If you are unable to communicate, emergency personnel or first responders will be able to find your medical information. Includes options for home and auto.
Inpatient, Skilled Care
Swing Bed – Some Mercy hospitals offer short-term skilled care through a Swing Bed program. Medicare and Medicare+ Choice patients who need short-term skilled care after a qualifying acute care hospital stay, may choose to remain at Mercy rather than returning to their homes or transferring to another facility, depending upon their medical needs and length of stay.
Mercy Villa – When independent living is no longer an option, Mercy Villa can provide skilled care and peace of mind for you or a loved one. Located in Springfield, Mercy Villa includes 150 long-term beds. It houses three nursing units, two dining areas, a beauty shop, a landscaped courtyard and a chapel.
