Home Place sits on about half an acre and was built in 2006 as a one-story, single-family house with a solid slab foundation and a strong asphalt roof, so folks don't have to worry much about stairs or leaks, and with its 3,567 square feet of living space there's room to move around, plus you'll find two bathrooms, tile in some rooms and carpet in others, and brick outside with other basic features along with a patio where you can sit when the weather's nice. The state of Georgia's Department of Social Services licenses Home Place for up to six residents, so things stay pretty calm and everyone gets to know each other, and staff is known to be helpful, joyful, and kind, always bringing a good attitude to work. They offer private and semi-private rooms, and you can pay with private funds, long-term care insurance, or the Veterans Aid and Attendance program, making it easier for some families. The place has heating, air conditioning, and cooling systems that'll keep everyone comfortable through all the Georgia seasons, and you'll find transportation support for doctor visits, errands, and rides to places of worship as needed.
Home Place gives different types of care since you might need a little help with things like bathing, dressing, or getting to the bathroom, or maybe more, and they have both licensed assisted living and memory care services, along with a caring team that helps whether you're dealing with mobility concerns or other health issues, and if you need diet changes for things like diabetes or high blood pressure, they'll make those adjustments when asked. Meals come from chefs and meal planners who try to make food both tasty and nutritious. Each day you can take part in planned activities, movies, music therapy, animal visits, art projects, exercise sessions, board games, and group outings, plus there's a sensory and activity center with music, arts, and fitness to work your mind and body, and some residents enjoy the reading room, workout and fitness area, hot tub, sauna, and outdoor relaxation spaces.
They offer beauty and grooming services, sometimes with a mobile barber or hairdresser, and help with both personal care and staying social, with programs designed to keep you active in body and mind, and the community's size, with just six residents, means most folks feel pretty close-knit, so there are plenty of chances to join in games, movie nights, and other social events. Home Place doesn't use any special program names or fancy marketing terms, but folks recognize it for its friendly staff, engaging daily schedules, variety of care options, and the way they tailor help and activities to what the residents need.
