Longleaf Liberty Park sits in a peaceful spot near the Cahaba River and wooded areas, offering a newer community built in a contemporary farmhouse style that feels both fresh and homey, with white wood paneling, tranquil colors, cozy seating, and lots of open space. Residents can choose between assisted living and memory care, and there are private apartments with safety features, modern décor, air conditioning, kitchenettes, and private bathrooms, so folks feel secure and comfortable as they age. Staff stay on site around the clock to help with bathing, dressing, meals, walking, medicine, and personal needs, plus they'll check in often using a call system and even encourage wearable alert necklaces if folks want extra security.
The staff, friendly and well-trained, make sure everyone gets care tailored to fit them, with help from the Executive Director Matt Nicosia and Sales & Marketing Director Catherine Hales, who brings plenty of experience in senior care. Residents who need help after things like surgery or an illness can use the respite care for a short stay, and there are services planned for daily, weekly, and monthly visits, depending on what's needed. Memory care staff offer support for people with Alzheimer's, dementia, and mild cognitive issues, providing dedicated programming, sensory activities, and safe spaces so no one feels left behind.
Everyone benefits from the community approach, where engagement, comfort, and individuality matter, so you'll see people visiting a small library, gardening on the patio, spending time in a spa, gaming room, or fitness area, or joining in religious services. Scheduled activities fill up the days, with residents running some themselves-there could be onsite events, educational programs, social gatherings, or planned trips out into town, all organized to keep people as connected as they want to be. Housekeeping, laundry, and linen services keep things tidy while communal dining rooms serve meals that meet folks' needs.
Special programs like the Masterful Moments program help shape the atmosphere here, aiming for purposeful living and well-being, along with extra services like diabetes care, physical therapy, and community education for families. There's an emphasis on connection, security, and growth, both for those in assisted living and for those needing memory care, all in a boutique-style community that's meant to look fresh and inviting but still be welcoming and down to earth, and while everything's kept pretty up to date, with fashionable interiors and open plans so no one feels closed in, the most important thing is the steady, friendly support from the staff, which helps people keep their independence as much as possible while always making sure help is there when it's needed.
