Academy Assisted Living Facility

Academy Assisted Living Facility sits three blocks north of Lawnwood Hospital right on the corner of Soltman Avenue and Birch, and the building's all on one floor, so you don't have to worry about stairs, and you've got private or semi-private rooms to pick from, depending on what you want or need, and folks here still get to keep their independence but always have help close by when needed, whether it's getting out of bed or help with bathing or dressing, so you've got kind and trained staff available 24 hours a day, and there's a good emergency call system set up for quick help. You'll see they've got things like medication management, supervised medication reminders, and they can help people with insulin monitoring or folks with memory issues or even dementia. Laundry and housekeeping are handled, and there's even dry cleaning if you need it, so you don't have to fuss with chores, and meals-three times a day-come home-cooked and checked over by a licensed dietitian, with options for diabetes or allergies, so almost everyone can find something to eat and there's shared dining spaces or private apartments if you want more alone time. There's a big TV and lots of movies, game nights, cards, group exercise, and plenty of social programs to keep you busy, and there are always activities like bingo and arts or chats in the garden or sitting on one of the screened porches, which are comfortable and open for fresh air. You can get your hair done in the beauty salon or by the barber, and there are devotional services offsite if you want them, and you've got outdoor walking paths too. If you need to go to the store, a doctor's appointment, or go out for events, there's courtesy transportation, and they've got parking spaces for those who drive or have visitors, so that makes it easier for friends and family to come by. Common areas are comfortable and clean, there's a community or arts room, and you can always find someone to talk to if you want company, and staff help set up activities for health, exercise, and socializing, which really keeps life interesting. Academy offers different options for those who need help during the day but don't need full nursing care, and for those needing extra supervised care for memory issues, and there's always clear information about the facility in AHCA reports and provider pages that you can check. The place takes fair housing seriously and tries to provide a safe and welcoming environment for everyone, and residents' safety's a priority with around-the-clock staff, emergency plans in place, and coordination with medical providers, and any legal information's available if you want to check it in the required reports, which is good for peace of mind. All in all, Academy Assisted Living Facility tries to make daily life comfortable and safe, with services and amenities that fit the needs of its residents, while supporting as much independence as possible.
