Savannah Court of Milledgeville sits as a retirement and assisted living community, licensed for up to 48 residents, and it offers several options for those who need help every day or memory care for people living with Alzheimer's or other types of dementia. Residents can choose furnished studio apartments with safety features and wheelchair accessibility, and the community has strong safety measures like an emergency alert system, a 24-hour call system, and secured doors, including technology like bracelets that alert staff if someone leaves the grounds. People get help with bathing, dressing, moving, medication management, and can use mechanical lifts if needed, and the team can give insulin shots and watch blood sugar, including sliding scale therapy for diabetes.
There's a dining room where folks can eat meals any time of day with restaurant-style service, and the kitchen staff work with special diets like low or no sodium, allergies, or diabetes, plus they provide room service if needed, and guests can join residents for meals too. Housekeeping, dry cleaning, laundry for linens, and telephone service in each room are standard, with in-house pharmacy, personal aides, and onsite homecare available as well. Residents can participate in onsite and offsite activities, with things like movie nights, arts and crafts in a dedicated room, community-sponsored and resident-run events, a musical group, gardening group, educational talks, story times, game nights, and indoor common areas for gatherings or religious services.
Outside, the land includes gardens and walking paths, patios, and there's resident parking and space for guests. People who need behavioral care or who tend to wander can stay here, since staff are trained to work with difficult behaviors and the place is built to keep folks safe inside. There's dementia waiver support, skilled nursing, memory care, and hospice services, with care plans that change as people need more support. Comfort and independence matter here, so there's help to keep pets like cats and dogs, scheduled visits from occupational and physical therapists, a barber and beauty salon, and free rides for trips in town.
Everyday life runs on a set schedule to provide structure, but people can still choose what activities or programs they want, from devotional services offsite to activity programs like gardening or recreation in the common spaces, or even enjoying a movie or a meal with friends. Payment goes by check or credit card, and the office helps with VA benefits and financial planning. Families get support too, with adult day programs and respite care options for short stays, and there's always staff on hand any hour of the day or night to help out or just keep an eye out. The Spark LIFEstyle philosophy runs through what they do, which means there's an effort to make every day as comfortable as possible, matching care and service to what each person needs, always with a focus on kindness and support in a calm and homelike setting.
