Metro - Community Living Arrangement - Lawrenceville, also known as ART OF LIVING CLA IV in Snellville, is a community living arrangement in Lawrenceville, GA, that supports seniors and adults with various needs in a comfortable, homelike setting, and you'll find that it doesn't look or feel like a big institution because it's set up as small residential homes that can care for a limited number of people, which seems to make things quieter and calmer, whether someone needs help with daily activities, personal care, medication management, or even specialized support for Alzheimer's, dementia, or developmental and behavioral disabilities, and round-the-clock staff provide supervision, health and psychiatric care, and assistance with things like bathing, dressing, or transfers, all with the goal of helping people keep as much independence as they can manage. There are community rooms with dining spaces, furnished bedrooms, and telephones in the rooms, along with wheelchair accessibility and transportation services, so it's easy for folks to get where they need to go and stay connected with others. Meals and snacks get served daily, and people with allergies or diabetes can get food that fits their diet, and for social life there's movie nights, scheduled events, outings, a garden, walking paths, and a good number of community activities mixed in, which people can choose to join if they're feeling up to it. Nursing care comes included when needed, including wound care and rehab after hospital stays, and you'll find behavioral health support, medication supervision, laundry services, money management help, and training for independent living skills all happen as part of the daily routine, along with monitoring through emergency alert systems in every room, so safety always stays a priority.
Respite care is available if families need a short break, there's memory care options for dementia and Alzheimer's, there's pre-vocational training, and integrated programs to support people with intellectual or developmental disabilities, autism, or mental illness, all under approval by the Department of Behavioral Health and Developmental Disability (DBHDD), which means folks get services at a standard set by the state. Community-integrated services and support teams help everyone work on their abilities and spend time out in the community when possible, and personal hygiene, health visits, and day-to-day activities always get the oversight and help they require. The community aims to offer comfort, love, care, and nurturing, making it a steady place to live for people who really need a bit of extra help or supervision as they get older or face health challenges.
