Independence Care Center of Perry County is a senior care facility located in Perryville, Missouri, offering a range of services tailored to the needs of its residents. Designed to accommodate both long-term residential care and short-term rehabilitation, the center provides nursing-home care and assisted-living services. With the capacity to serve 111 occupants, the facility is certified by Medicare and Medicaid and has been a Medicare participant since April 24, 2009. The center provides a variety of medical support and care services, including occupational and speech therapy, hospice care, and memory care, alongside essential functions such as medication administration and daily living assistance. Residents also benefit from amenities like a chapel, barber/beauty salon, and clubs and communities for social engagement.

However, resident and family reviews raise significant concerns about the quality of care at the facility. While the physical environment is reportedly well-maintained, there are multiple allegations of abusive behavior by nurses and aides. Some residents, it is alleged, are compelled to participate in activities and meals even against their wishes. Such experiences are reportedly distressing for those on hospice care, with some reviews indicating a punitive response to requests for exemption from activities, including neglect in feeding, leading to health declines. Additionally, the handling of bedridden hospice patients has been described as rough and inadequate. Despite the availability of various amenities and supportive services, these ongoing issues highlight challenges in the care provided at the center.
