Metro Cla sits in Stone Mountain, Georgia, and offers many choices for senior living, so folks who want to stay independent as long as they can have different options, and you see everything from quiet board and care homes in regular neighborhoods to bigger communities that offer independent living, assisted living, memory care, and skilled nursing all in one place, so folks can stay even as their health changes. Some homes, like Ageless CLA or Art of Living CLA, are small and feel almost like a family, offering daily help, meals, and personal care for just a few residents. The staff's well known for being helpful and friendly, and some have even gotten awards for making people feel welcome, and you always see seniors enjoying activities that keep them busy both on-site and out in the community, like shopping or going to devotional services if they want.
You've got places like Albert's House or Amelia's Place PCH for more personal care homes, then bigger set-ups with names like Artes of Living CLA II, III, IX, and V, with options for care needs as they grow. There's memory care for folks with dementia, too-those communities are set up to be safe, with doors that don't cause confusion and programs that really try to help with memory through simple routines or activities. Skilled nursing is there for folks who are sicker, with 24-hour care, wound support, and rehab after an illness or surgery. Some places help with specific medical needs, diabetic care, or high acuity care, and there's even space for those needing respite, hospice, or short-term stays.
Meals come cooked by chefs focused on nutrition, and they can do vegetarian or kosher if someone prefers, and the dining rooms are relaxed so people can spend time together. Rooms stay accessible with wheelchair showers, private baths, and a house beautician for those needing a haircut or a shave. Seniors can bring their own favorite chairs or photos, and there's plenty of activity with both indoor and outdoor spaces and transportation to get to stores, hospitals, or other outings.
Metro Cla serves folks with Medicaid COMP/NOW Waiver services, and there are services for people with developmental disabilities or behavioral needs, with person-centered care always at the focus and trained staff always around. There's help for daily needs like bathing, dressing, or taking medication, companionship visits from home aides, and even day programs and pre-vocational training like at 2416 Lance Court in Loganville for skill-building or just keeping busy. Metro Cla is run by Metro Community Services, Inc., with Tina Obode as president, and the community's been recognized with awards like Best of Senior Living and Best of Senior Living All Star.
You see seniors choosing Metro Cla for full-time or part-time support, with a range of care for different health and lifestyle needs, and there's always something happening, whether that's a game night, a music group, visiting with friends, or simply relaxing in the garden. This is a place where it's easy to stay as independent as you like, with help nearby when you want it, and a sense that people care about each other's comfort and health.
