Park Springs sits on 61 acres in Stone Mountain, Georgia, and you can tell they've thought a lot about making things comfortable for older adults because they've got just about every kind of living option you might need, like independent living, assisted living, memory care, skilled nursing, respite care, and even an adult day program, so folks can move between levels of care as their health needs change without switching communities. They've got a resort feel to the place, and there are Villas like Park View Villas, Overlook Villas, and Golf View Villas, plus cottages and houses with different floorplans, which helps if someone's got strong feelings about the kind of home they want, and there are age-restricted, maintenance-free homes for people who like their independence but don't care for chores, and all of it's inside a gated community with 24-hour security so people don't have to worry as much about safety. There's a clubhouse that covers more than 10,000 square feet, with fitness rooms, a couple of indoor therapy pools that stay warm, and even a woodworking shop, computer learning center, library, lounges, and an auditorium, so you can stay busy without leaving the grounds, plus a clubhouse where folks gather for various clubs and social groups, and throughout the year they've got a good mix of social, educational, and leisure activities if you want to keep up with friends or meet new faces.
When it comes to food, meals come three times a day, cooked fresh by an executive chef, and there's a private dining room you can use for special get-togethers, and if you've got particular dietary needs, full-time dietitians help make sure you get what suits your health and taste, which can bring some peace of mind. Health-wise, there's a Wellness Clinic right there, with full-time on-site geriatric physicians and staff trained to help with daily living as needed, whether someone needs help while recovering from illness or injury, ongoing skilled nursing (that's Medicare-certified), rehabilitation, or just the usual checkups, and their memory care unit is secured and recognized by the Alzheimer's Association, with staff specially trained to help people living with dementia or Alzheimer's, which can be a relief if that's something you or a loved one are dealing with.
Families appreciate that the care includes a strong sense of privacy and dignity, and caregivers are there 24 hours a day in both assisted living and the memory care unit, so there's always someone ready if you need a hand, and the entire facility uses a Household Model approach, focusing on giving personal attention in a smaller, homey environment. There are scenic paths, a gazebo-style interior courtyard, access to two championship golf courses, and several indoor and outdoor recreation spots for people who like to walk or just sit outside. They also offer respite care for short-term stays and an adult day program during daytime hours, which can be helpful for caregivers who need a break or support for their loved one during the day.
Services include meals, laundry, home health, catering, and tray services, as well as on-site activities and an on-site beautician, and there are options for whatever kind of living support you need, with a focus on letting people stay as independent as possible for as long as they want. Park Springs, run by Isakson Living and Life Care Services, uses a Storied Living approach that tries to honor each person's preferences and life history, so there's an effort to keep things personal, and you can see some of this online with their photo and video galleries and lifestyle virtual tours. Park Springs offers a full range of senior living services designed to help people stay healthy, connected, and comfortable as they age.
