Ivey Ridge Senior Living sits in Alpharetta, Georgia, serving seniors in the metro Atlanta area, and you'll find assisted living, memory care for Alzheimer's and dementia, nursing, rehab, respite, independent living, and short-term care options all under one roof, where up to 25 people can live at a time, so it doesn't ever feel too crowded or too busy, and every resident gets a bit more personal attention than in some bigger places. The staff take a holistic approach, using individualized programming, and designate care managers who get to know each resident's needs, and they run a special Alzheimer's and Memory Care program with secure spaces, cognitive activities, and safety measures like locked entries for comfort and security.
You'll see a busy schedule with daily events, fitness and music, therapy pets, board games, movie nights, and trips outside, plus devotional services and a space for religious gatherings, and if someone likes arts or reading, there's an art room, library, and even a bistro and lounge for relaxing or talking with friends, while outside there are gardens, patios, walking paths, and a screened porch or sunroom. Folks live in private or semi-private rooms, studio apartments, or single rooms, many with private baths, cable, kitchenettes, and emergency call systems, so comfort's kept in mind and anyone who visits can join at mealtime, which can be handy for families.
Dining means three fresh meals cooked each day, and the staff work with doctors on special diets for things like diabetes, high blood pressure, low salt, and low fat, always using quality facilities for meal service, and there's also housekeeping, laundry, beautician services, interior and exterior building maintenance so residents don't have to fuss with chores. Safety's a high priority here - there's a 24-hour nurse and alert staff for medication help, bathing, transfers needing two people, support for folks with insulin, in-house dentistry or podiatry, and telehealth options where doctors can check in without anyone needing to leave the community.
You'll find extra features like the Sunrise CareConnect electronic records system, which lets doctors and care managers track each person's care plans, medicine, and changes from afar, and the property management team makes sure everything runs smoothly and safely. Residents often use community transportation for errands, church visits, and medical appointments, and if someone's recovering from injury or surgery, respite care with short stays is an option. They've got a well-trained staff with specialized memory care training, and nurses on call or onsite around the clock.
Ivey Ridge has earned over 280 National Quality Awards, which is more than any other assisted living provider, and has been recognized internationally for quality and new ideas in senior care. Residents get structured help for daily life-eating, bathing, grooming, dressing, and moving around-and the building is accessible, with elevators, wheelchair-friendly features, and secured grounds. There's also medication management, continence support, home health services, and hospice if needed, covering most gaps in senior support.
All in all, Ivey Ridge Senior Living is a medium-sized, safe and pleasant community that tries to meet a broad range of resident needs, where people can keep as much independence as possible while staying supported and busy, and where both health and comfort are a steady focus without feeling too fancy or distant.
