    Community Type

    The senior living community is a personal care or assisted living facility, providing support and care for residents who require assistance with daily activities.

    Short-Term Stays

    Short-term stays are available for those who need temporary care, with a minimum duration of up to one week. Charges for short-term stays are calculated on a daily basis.

    Pet Policy

    Pets are not permitted within the facility, ensuring a safe and comfortable environment for all residents.

    Transportation Services

    Transportation assistance is provided for residents to attend doctor appointments, but this service is limited to the Cartersville area.

    Dining Experience

    The dining experience is designed to resemble a restaurant-style setting. Residents are served at their tables with a set menu that is adjusted according to individual dietary needs and preferences. The staff ensures that all residents are satisfied with their meals, offering substitutions when necessary. The facility handles all cleaning after meals, creating a hassle-free dining environment for residents.

    Staff and Medical Assistance

    The community is staffed with medical technicians (med techs), certified nursing assistants (CNAs), and medical assistants. Additionally, outside agencies provide home health and hospice care services. In-house physical and occupational therapy services are available, along with a hospice nurse and a site nurse for psychiatric evaluations as needed.

    Safety Measures

    For resident safety, the facility is equipped with pull cords in all bathrooms and provides life alert pagers for immediate assistance. The community is a locked facility, ensuring security at all times. Family members are given pendants to allow for easy access when visiting their loved ones.

    Addressing Complaints

    Residents and their families can address complaints directly to the staff, including contacting Erica McDaniel, who is in charge of admissions and marketing. A complaint box is also available and checked regularly to ensure that any issues are promptly addressed.

    Communication with Families

    The facility maintains open lines of communication with the families of residents through email, phone calls, and letters. Direct calls are made to the first person of contact listed on the emergency sheet, or to the power of attorney (POA) if applicable, followed by the next person of contact.

    Admissions and Marketing Contact

    Erica McDaniel is the primary contact for admissions and marketing, as well as a corporate employee. She is available to assist with inquiries and provide information about the facility.
